cartoon strip

Sequential illustrated panels

A cartoon strip is a sequence of drawings, typically arranged horizontally, that tells a story or delivers a joke through images and dialogue.

The term is synonymous with comic strip, though cartoon strip emphasizes the drawn, often humorous nature of the panels: I read the cartoon strips in the Sunday paper.
