Muppet Babies (comic strip)

A Muppet Babies comic strip was proposed by Guy Gilchrist in the 1980s.
Gilchrist, who had created The Muppets daily syndicated comic strip along with his brother Brad, had drawn the "Muppet Babies" characters from The Muppets Take Manhattan for various licensed products. Gilchrist proposed the idea "for a daily, single panel comic for newspapers featuring the Muppet Babies and submitted about twenty samples to Jim [Henson] along with one multi-panel strip."Jim Henson's Red Book - 8/29/1983 – ‘Shooting Muppet Babies in Movie.’ 
The idea for a daily comic was not developed. However, following the success of the animated TV show, the characters appeared in comic books from Marvel Comics. 
Gilchrist later drew various Muppet Babies for cameo appearances in the comic strip Nancy in 2015.
