I guess in the 30s the newspaper comic strips were called the funnies and so the first comic books were done in that style. the funnies could be called a style of comic book. A style that I wish would come back as funnies style books are often imaginative clever and well written. I don't consider these Joke books primitive, they are done in a certain style which I believe has stood the test of time
