On the new strip "Inside Woody Allen"

By the time you read this, King Features Syndicate should have debuted their new comic strip. "Inside Woody Allen." The strip is written by Allen and drawn by New York artist Joe Marthen,

Allen, the accomplished comedian, has done plays, movies, and short stories and, according to King Features publicist. Ted Hannah, comic strips are the last area for Allen to move into. The strip deals directly with Allen and according to Hannah, "I am told his entire life will appear" in the strip.

The strip is not ghost written, says Hannah, "Mr. Allen is stickler for details. When he undertakes a project, he takes charge of it."

"Inside Woody Allen" has the largest prepublication list of markets of any strip in the history of comics, said Hannah. Approximately 200 newspapers around the world will initially carry the strip. The strip's US debut is scheduled for October 4.
