Does anyone remember that 1950s comic strip I posted when I first joined here couple years ago? "Terr'ble Thompson" by Gene Deitch? For refresher, here are some strips:    I bring it up because I came across a strangest thing. Deitch tried to revive the strip for animation in 1966, except that he turned the main character into a girl, called "Terr'ble Tessie". The pilot never sold, alas. You can watch it here. 50 years ahead of Marvel Comics, too. (Tessie was voiced by Deitch himself, in case you're wondering)

The first word is eight letters long, and the first and last together have 14 characters. So the true murderer is Inspectr Danger He's a mathematician, he can't spell.

The first season of 60s Spider-Man also caused the original animation studio to go out of business (which led to seasons 2 and 3 being done by Ralph Bakshi).

I went to look up what the real answer is the station is actually just 88.0, so it's Harold Hopkins, but I think I found something better instead. http://www.gocomics.com/inspector-dangers-crime-quiz/2012/04/05#.U98K9mNgH9V

Will Inspector Danger ever serve a warrant before searching someone's home? Or are we just assuming he has one? Because I am assuming he does not have one, and he's just rifling through people's homes quickly to get in and out before the real police finally realize who is tainting all of their evidence.

There's some catch-up to be done with some of the daily classic strips, but that will have to wait for tomorrow. Since the weekend and weekday storylines are separate, it doesn't really matter if I post these first.  Pros & Cons  Sally Forth  Prince Valiant  Juliet Jones  Phantom Classic  Big Ben Bolt

Nothing but circumstantial evidence. Dude could have lady friends that stay over occasionally, or perhaps he just likes to feel pretty and enjoys reading Vogue. Like, the man seems unconcerned about the feminine objects being in plain sight of two policemen, so I fail to see it as anything other than the flimsiest of excuses to harass a man whose only crime was to associate with a criminal years ago.

The actual solution was just that the rabbits would have panicked and ruined his act. Yours works better, I think. The part about him ingesting snake poison was left completely unchanged. e: my original idea was just to use the original setup and conclusion except rephrased so you'd think it's fake. I really should have went with that. Wanamingo fucked around with this message at 07:30 on Aug 4, 2014 |

Inspector Danger's Crime Quiz Well, how disappointingly mundane. Mandrake the Magician, 1942-04-19.  Not sure this really works. The strip in which they left on this expedition was published on April 28th 1940.

Fingerpori [NCP is doing well] - Nooo The National Coalition Party is the current largest political party in Finland. They're center-right liberals and generally seen as the middle-to-upper class (i.e. wealthy people's) party, as opposed to the social democrats and the lower working class. X:lla pyyhkii hyvin means literally "it wipes well for X" and it's an expression meaning "X is doing well". I have no clue as to its etymology. Incidentally, the way Finnish grammar works means that "X is good for wiping" is pronounced identically. Fok_It  Some sceptics in Fok_It's comment section pointed out that tinfoil would actually reflect the heat away. Where's the truth?

Mister Beeg posted:Anything and everything Filmation did is so godawful cheap. They couldn't even afford to have Walter Koenig. (at least he got to write an episode) What gets me the most about that cartoon is the drat soundtrack. I watched it when I was a kid (yeah,  ), and recently re-watched it about a year ago, and every once in a while, the music from the soundtrack starts up in my head. I watched the Filmation Spiderman too, and that almost never happens with that particular cartoon. So I guess if there's anything good about the series, the soundtrack music is somehow pretty catchy.There. Now you're hearing it too, right?
