That panel of Modesty trying to explain things to an uncaring bureaucracy appeals to me - some problems you can't solve with a Kongo. In other Modesty Blaise news, our friends over at the Daily Cartoonist recently linked to this blog from 2011: http://cloud-109.blogspot.com/2011/05/modesty-forbids-prologue.html which is a multi part series discussing changes in artists over the years. I know it's come up in previous threads, but this is nicely set out for anyone who was both interested and didn't know.

curtadams posted:This is a profound observation. Yeah. I'm teaching a class on queer amlit this semester and one of the things students keep striking on is how intimate and intense queer friendships are in a lot of the texts. It's something that many of the queer students have really found refreshing to see in older literature, and it's something that's interesting for me to see develop over the generations.

Sally Forth Pearls Before Swine  Peanuts (February 16, 1974)  Funky Winkerbean  Crankshaft  9 Chickweed Lane  Rip Haywire  Thimble Theater (September 15, 1937)  Out Our Way (February 3-5, 1936)    Today's installment of Toonerville Folks represents what the New Orleans paper published on March 4, 6 and 8, 1917. There was nothing between February 27th and March 4th, because apparently some editor thought that the inevitability of war was more important than the trolley that meets all the trains. So I blame the spotty coverage on military priorities.    The absence of ducks, however, I blame on technical difficulties. It's been a fun day for connectivity on this end.

Some Guy TT posted:Oh good. So it's probably safe to assume that this isn't one of those comics that's obscure because half the characters are bizarre archaic racist stereotypes. Well, not in the first week at least, but I can't promise anything beyond that.   Axa  You know, your standard features: 4-wheel drive, heater, ESP, cup holders...

Club life in Moominvalley And thus we start on the last of the stories I have. (At least until I get to scanning vol 4-7. Ugh I need to see if I can borrow/rent a scanner from someone. Or maybe I should just bite the bullet and buy a cheap scanner. )

"In 1921, Arthur D. Little, an MIT educated chemist, set out to prove that even the impossible can be accomplished with hard work and ingenuity. He followed these 7 steps to prove that it was, in fact, possible to make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear: First, he observed the silkworm producing silk, noting that the liquid emitted from the head of the silkworm changed once it mixed with air, becoming in viscosity something like glue. Second, Little’s lab reduced 100 pounds of sow’s ears into 10 pounds of glue, which he then converted to gelatin by adding chrome alum and acetone. Third, he exuded the mixture through a perforated spinneret. Fourth, he soaked the brittle strands in a glycerin solution to soften them. Fifth, he dried and dyed the fibers. Sixth, he wove the cloth on a loom. Seventh and finally, from the resulting cloth, Little fashioned two silk purses, one of which is on display at the Smithsonian Institute."
