Funny

Funny (von englisch = lustig, gewöhnlich verwendet in der Mehrzahl Funnys) ist eine im deutschen Sprachraum verwendete Gattungsbezeichnung für humorvolle Comics, die Slapstick-Elemente und Gags aufweisen können. Viele Werke von Zeichnern der École Marcinelle werden als Funnys bezeichnet.

Im englischsprachigen Raum wird die Bezeichnung „Funnies“ als Abkürzung für Comic Strips verwendet.
