Listing of the publication history for the Buck Rogers comic strip. The history of the Buck Rogers comic strip is a complicated one. The early strips were numbered rather than dated, and every so often the numbering was restarted, creating a new strip numbering "series". To add to the complexity, different newspapers ran the strips on different days – sometimes several months apart from each other. Below is a very detailed story guide to all of the Buck Rogers comics strips, complete with story titles, dates, strips numbers (where applicable), artist/writer information and a large number of detailed notes addressing the "eccentricities" of the strip.
