It was also a comic, smart arse. Published in The Sunday Post, and in Annual form ( the first being worth several thousand now ) and in comic form such as holiday specials.Beano, Dandy, Oor Wullie - all comics.
comics don't have to be weekly. It was published in comic form.

Always referred to when discussing comics. When you publish a comic strip in the Sundays, people always refer to them as comics. The fact Oor Wullie and Broons are better know for their annuals does not detract from the fact it was a comic. On their official website, it states " The Broons and Oor Wullie, Scotland's favourite comic stars "I worked for a book company / auctioneers which collaborated with DC Thomsons. Those special edition reprints of the Beano and Dandy first issues. Auctioned the original first issue of each at auction - went for a combined £12,000. I helped catalogue this collection http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denis_Gifford#Collection_of_comics_and_other_popular_media
