=== Comic strips === Dr. Fu Manchu was first brought to newspaper comic strips in a black and white [[daily comic strip]] drawn by Leo O'Mealia (1884–1960) that ran from 1931 to 1933. The strips were adaptations of the first two Dr. Fu Manchu novels and part of the third.<ref name="RonGoulart">{{cite book | first=Ron | last=Goulart | author-link=Ron Goulart | title=The Funnies: 100 Years of American Comic Strips | location=Holbrook, Mass | publisher=Adams Publishing | year=1995 | isbn=978-1-55850-539-1 | pages=104, 106 }}</ref><ref name="comics">{{cite magazine|last=Maynard |first=William Patrick |url=https://www.blackgate.com/2010/07/23/fu-manchu-in-comics/ |title=Fu Manchu in Comics |magazine=Black Gate |date=23 July 2010|access-date=2019-09-10}}</ref> Unlike most other illustrators, O'Mealia drew Dr. Fu Manchu as a clean-shaven man with an abnormally large cranium.
