rannum posted:Out of curiosity is any of the Chinese in these Nancy comics actual, like, sentences or characters or is it all just gibberish top to bottom. I think I read somewhere that it was mahjong tiles or something, but I can’t find a source for that now. At least it wasn’t in the book I’ve been scanning

Pogo 11/23-25/50 Archie 7/20/47 Panel 2: Archie, fully clothed, looking into the lake. Panel 3: Archie, naked, being thrown into the lake. I think Bob skipped over too much of the action there... although "crimping land sharks" is pretty good.

The_Other posted:Regular readers of this thread might also know Ham Fisher from his years long feud with Al Capp, a feud that eventualy contributed to Fisher taking his own life in 1955. Denis Kitchen and Michael Schumacher covered some if the feud in their biography of Capp; Al Capp: a Life to the Contrary. The wikipedia article on Fisher gives a brief summary of the feud, and the late comics historian R.C. Harvey did a nine part series on The Comics Journal website, which goes into more detail about the feud as well as giving a theory on why Ham Fisher kept the feud going. I maintain that someone should make a movie about the Ham Fisher and Al Capp feud just because of how wild it got.

The problem is I don't think you have a sympathetic character until you get Lee Falk going "wait, this is hosed up" when Al Capp is crowing about Fisher's death at a party.

It's A Sketchy Life for June 9, 1927! Our cover this week is from Russell Patterson. Marge: Ethel Plummer: James Montgomery Flagg: "WE" (always in caps) was Charles Lindbergh's first memoir of his Spirit of St. Louis crossing, which came out in July. The dust jacket maintained that it was indicative of the spiritual partnership between him and his airplane, although the publisher picked the title for Lindy without his knowledge. He'd sometimes say later on that "we" is more applicable to the relationship between him and his financial backers. Ned Hilton: Ellison Hoover: Don Herold:

I dont like the mary worth story but also i do kinda want to see which of mary's acquaintances will somehow be the key to this probably someone brings a dog into the vet that helps him figure it out but maybe it's something bizarre also looking at the old guy's house with everything revolving around the little dog reminds me that my dog has cancer and i won't have her much longer

Fingerpori The original text mentions a specific type of curtains that are slightly thicker so that they block light fully, but I couldn't find a good translation quickly and thought just "curtain" worked fine. ANSU
