Sally Forth is a daily comic strip created by Greg Howard in 1982 and distributed by King Features Syndicate, focusing on the life of an American middle-class mother at home and work. Sally's name is a play on words: "to sally forth" means to set out on an adventure.
In 1991 Craig MacIntosh began doing the drawing.[2] In 1999, Howard quit writing as well and turned the task of writing the strip over to Francesco Marciuliano and Steve Alaniz. Jim Keefe took over the artwork in 2013 from Craig MacIntosh, with Marciuliano continuing to write after Alaniz retired from full-time work on Sally Forth.
It is unrelated to an earlier comic of the same name, which was created for armed forces publications in 1968 and featured a sexy action-adventure character who is often depicted nude.
