Deathless Deer 12/21-23/42   Wait, so they drive into a hidden door in what looks like a suburban house and end up on a city street?

Mary Worth  "I'll never forget the face of the man that killed my family!" The Phantom  OK that's pretty nice. I did a google and found Tony DePaul's blog (he is recovering from chemo--I don't remember hearing that but I may just have forgotten) where he mentions this guy they modeled the Trusted Man on.  He was a friend of DePaul's and Phantom fan from Mexico. He was a dentist who wrestled as El Dentista!  All in all, a nice little tribute I think. Seems like he was a nice guy.

Doomykins posted:Jucika "30 - Jucika and the First Grader" I don't get this one either, it doesn't seem like she's trying to cover people's view of the kid since she's standing behind him, and anyone across the street or even walking towards them would be able to see him. She also opened her umbrella for some reason, I guess? If she was using the umbrella to block him that'd make a little more sense but she's not.

Really surprised Val and Aleta don't kill each other to end the strip, they're up about 3 tragedies and a double digit body count on two trips to Misty Isles. It does make the upcoming relationship pretty intriguing since we've had modern Val Sundays in the thread.Twelve by Pies posted:I don't get this one either, it doesn't seem like she's trying to cover people's view of the kid since she's standing behind him, and anyone across the street or even walking towards them would be able to see him. She also opened her umbrella for some reason, I guess? If she was using the umbrella to block him that'd make a little more sense but she's not. Thinking on it a bit you can get a "Jucika masking her own embarrassment" joke since the umbrella is covering her while the kid takes a leak. Powered Descent posted:The Family Circus A man who knows what he likes. It's funny how Family Circus is usually the very definition of average and dull and every so often slips a heavy hitter in.

When he gets back to Camelot they're going to have stern words with Val about the rate at which him and his friends get through capable and loyal squires. They're not an infinite resource you know.

The good news is, after military sexual harassment scandals in the 90s, Mort Walker decided to send General Halftrack to sensitivity training and write out the gross jokes like this.

You know, more than any other currently running comic out there, I want to talk to the Evanses and ask them why they consistently write their characters to be so loving terrible. Because it's so consistent that it has to be deliberate.

Bought a file container, at an estate auction today, that had a big pile of Underground comics from the 70s, and 80s. R. Crumb collection, and Fritz the cat collection, and some books that were collections of porn parody comics from the 30s. I flipped through and saw an Ella Cinders comic.

My mom was a New Yorker who retired to Williamsburg, so yeah, she frequently heard about those danged Northerners bringing their awful liberal values where they weren't wanted.

Either way, find a way to archive some of the rarer stuff if you've got it, comics history outside of the big well-known names and properties can be so ephemeral.

(February 28, 1924) I'm pretty sure the Steeplechase Park and laughter reference comes from the fact that amusement parks used to have these "Laffing Sal" automatons, usually parked outside the fun house. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMyJOCt7xMg e: also hell yes Jucika getting someone punted out of the panel
