"Public domain" is a reference to writing/music/art/etc on which the copyright has expired. There are several good websites where you can research the history of various comic strips, including toonpedia. Google "cartoon history" and you'll get a long list of websites that offer lots of good information. The public library is also an excellent source.

I would start by going to comic book stores and asking the clerk about the characters you want to know about. There is a wealth of information there, as well as back issues of the comic. I would also do research on the internet, and public libraries.
