Selachian posted:Closer Than We Think! 5/15/60 THORN, October 23-26, 1984   And now we finally have Smiley Bone! Here's what Jeff has to say about him not appearing until now: quote:Smiley Bone has been around almost as long as Fone Bone and Phoney. When I was ten years old and drawing Bone stories in note pads, Smiley was the third wheel in all their adventures. I introduced him now because I didn’t really have a new story beyond the political satire, and I was starting to lose interest. The palace intrigue, the Vizier? Where was this going? I hoped adding Smiley would put some juice back in the feature.

Mutts Sally Forth  Peanuts (March 19, 1977)  One of those occasional reminders that these strips looked a little different in black and white.  The syndicate recolorists are obviously figuring this out as they go. For the first Franklin strips they put his skin color over Sparky's original shading. Considering those Funky Winkerbean strips where someone tried coloring over the original halftone dots and made Funky look like he was having a stroke, it's not the worst solution in the world...as long as we can still get to the original somewhere. Crankshaft   Rip Haywire  Li'l Abner (February 10-12, 1936)   Thimble Theater (October 19, 1940)  Out Our Way (April 3-5, 1944, spoiler because Ick's back)

Medenmath posted:Vintage Valiant (Apr. 08, 1962) Fun fact, if you read The Song of Roland, you quickly realise that Roland sucks and it's his fault everyone dies. My mum is very proud of her little bit of Basque heritage, and it amuses me to no end that in real life they're the ones who killed Roland (for entirely understandable reasons) and the chroniclers were just like "we'd rather claim it was the Saracens than admit it was those fuckers up in the hills."

Green Intern posted:Are we gearing up to this guy falling down and breaking something else in the middle of the convention? Remember the last plot line with those two had one falling victim to an old person malady - then the other one doing the same thing. The lady probably slipped and broke her hip in the food court and we'll spend a week listening to them compare and contrast their his and hers motorized recliners.

Selachian posted:Archie 11/9-11/49 So... canonically, Jughead has a massive, Memento-style chest tattoo in backwards calligraphy? This needs to be addressed. Hippocrass posted:Gasoline Alley(November 8, 1919) This is a good gag and made me smile. (I normally scroll past the ancient American comic strips because too often the old-timey ho-down gurpity-doo th' shucks n' fer gol' wal goober-berries — chee! — banter is nigh incomprehensible to me, especially when written in eye dialect. Sometimes I put the effort in but the humour is rarely worth it.)

I deeply appreciate Hippocrass's historical comics post, but I have to admit that the only ones I consistently read are Polly and her Pals and The Gumps, plus occasionally Gasoline Alley when it seems more comprehensible to someone like me who knows jack poo poo about cars. Which, thinking about it, are the ones that don't have too much eye dialect in them, plus aren't the most densely packed compared to some others. I don't mind a bit of eye dialect, but I think I prefer it used with a bit of restraint.

catlord posted:I deeply appreciate Hippocrass's historical comics post Oh, same, to be clear! I think there's value in it and I'm glad that stuff gets posted. It's just 'not for me', most of the time. Occasionally I'm in the right mindset and have the time to slow down and take some of it in. It's interesting, at the very least. I also appreciate Selachian giving me the chance to read Pogo, even if I choose not to more often than not, just because so many cartoonists I admire have named it as a favourite — to say nothing of the fact that They Might Be Giants have done a couple of low-key cover versions of Pogo songs over the years. I was always curious about it.

I have trouble with Pogo, but when I can get into it, it's so good. Also, I didn't know about those TMBG songs, that's cool!
