I just discovered this strip today...I like it. A bit more edgy than
Adam @ Home.

First comic featuring a stay-at-home Dad?

When did it start? Kevin and Kell began in 1995.

"Featuring", probably not:

Garfield
FBOFW
Sally Forth
Sherman's Lagoon
Snuffy Smith
Lil Abner

and others I'm sure.

Maybe "featuring" is the wrong word. How about central focus of the
strip? (concept).

The very first K&K strips were about Kevin being a stay-at-home dad.

I didn't know that. I just started reading K&K about three years ago.

It's one of my favorite strips, btw.

Carl mentioned Kevin & Kell, but I think Adam (before it became
Adam@Home) was still doing it before . . .

I thought the original premise of K&K was the dynamics of the ultimate
mixed marriage.

You're right. I was being slightly hyperbolic. The stay-at-home aspect did
come up quite early.
