Pim Pam Poum
Some early "Moritzian" comic strips were heavily influenced by Busch in plot and narrative style. "Tootle and Bootle" (1896), borrowed so much content from "Max and Moritz" that it was described as a pirate edition. The true "Moritzian" recreation is "The Katzenjammer Kids" by German artist Rudolph Dirks, published in the "New York Journal" from 1897. It was published though William Randolph Hearst's suggestion that a pair of siblings following the pattern of "Max and Moritz" should be created. "The Katzenjammer Kids" is regarded as one of the oldest, continuous comic strips.
