Tom Wilson is the creator of the popular 'Ziggy' panel. The first collection of 'Ziggy' panels was published by American Greetings in 1968. Universal Press Syndicate then distributed as a daily panel and Sunday strip, starting in June, 1971, in only 15 newspapers. It now appears in over 600. 'Ziggy' has since appeared on a large amount of merchandise, and Andrews & McMeel has published many collections of his panels. Tom Wilson retired from the feature in 1987, and it has been continued by his son, Tom Wilson II.
