"Hagar the Terrible" was the nickname given to the late Dik Browne by his sons; Browne adapted the name to Hägar the Horrible for the purposes of alliteration. After his death, Dik Browne's sons changed the title of the strip to Dik Browne's Hägar the Horrible in tribute. [2] [4] The name is pronounced Hay-gar according to Chris Browne. [6]
In 1954, cartoonist Mort Walker, seeing the Mounds candy bar ad, [10] enlisted Browne [10] to co-create the comic strip Hi and Lois, a spin-off of Walker's popular Beetle Bailey strip, featuring Beetle's sister, brother-in-law and their family. Walker wrote the strip, which Browne illustrated until his death.
