Maybey shiver should get a doctor to look at that! Just a second, Danger! What about my pickle? You're lucky you still have your brown paper bag, Small Change! Jack

Very nice -- what number? I bet it has my gal, Mary Jane, in it. Jack

Thanks. I got lucky on that one -- I didn't even know until now that it was tougher than 1! In the low range, I have a fairly nice 20 and coverless 13, 15, 21, 27. But why don't I have scans of Looney Tunes 5 and 45 covers? #$%^&* Jack

A few more Real Screen 2 Looney Tunes and Merry Melodies Super Rabbit page from #5 -- I can't find a cover scan !#$%%^&! 56 59 Jack

Yes, you will! But the other copy w/ some writing on the front cover (when I find it). Jack

Toy Town 1 with a hyperkinetic L. B. Cole cover and the splash page of the bizarre, full-length (anti-)morality tale inside. The interior looks to me like Cole at the beginning and Many Hands taking over. Highly recommended. Two of DC's clumsiest titles TV SCREEN CARTOONS 136 featuring Fox and Crow. Movietown's Animal Antics 28 featuring Raccoon Kids, Sheldon Mayer cover? And finally (for now) one I missed earlier, Porky Pig 27 Jack

Thanks. As far as I know, Jim Davis did all of the Fox and Crow covers -- maybe all the interior art too. Seadevils over on the calendar thread says that this is a tough one to find. I got lucky. Jack

HOLY FUDD! "I can't find my magic paint!"? Has Pidgy been filching from Dicky in the Magic Forest? If it's not crazy enough, a Mister Limpet-like fish with wire-rimmed glasses floating in the middle of the scene for no apparent reason. I'm not sure it's safe to read the whole book at one sitting. Jack

A couple of borderline entries. Raggedy Ann and Andy Dell Giant OK, rag dolls aren't really animals, but most of their adventures involve funny and stuffed animals, as you can see from the cover. An absolute must for funny animal fans, and a "best buy" in reader condition. Look at this wonderful page Is an anthropomorphic pickle an honorary funny animal? Pickle! or the do-swan 1 by a local boy! Jack

Mighty Mouse 37 -- what a mixed genre book! Western funny animal superhero melodrama. Platinum age funny animal! The Naughty Adventures of Vivacious Mister Jack! I WISH I owned this one. Nutsy Squirrel 72 -- Think PINK! The Adventures of Peter Rabbit 28 Jack

Scan the madness! "Spunky" was OK post-code, was it? Jack

Here comes Peter Porkchops! Leading Screen Comics 43 A terrific interior page from Leading Screen 53 (thanks to Scrooge -- recently posted on the calendar thread) Peter Porkchops 21 38 45 51 . Snout Abuse seems to be a problem too. Jack

Ha Ha Comics 59 - I like this Komik Killer-Diller Halloween cover a lot! Heckle and Jeckle 19 Heckle and Jeckle 33 Heckle and Jeckle 34 Krazy Krow 2 Jack

Frisky Fables 4 Probably ersatz Fago. Page 1 -- signed Fago (reprint) The Fox and the Crow 18 Frisky Animals 45 (Cole, repeat?) Goofy Comics 21 Jack

Four Color funny animals: 303 391 1104 1266 1270 -- Hey, Rocky! Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat! 1354-- last issue Jack

Let's see what I've got ready to post: Animal Antics 21 Animal Antics 22 Cosmo Cat 5 with interior pages! (OK?) Element pages and a duck vampire! Mediocre photo of two Dinky Duck covers with a brutal interior page! Dippy the Goof! Jack

I'm enjoying the thread! No time to post this morning, but this one stopped me in my tracks. Fago really had a distinctive vision, didn't he? The layout and character designs are different from everything else (so far) on the thread. Look at the swirling water! Jack same way he did the water on the Terry Toons #15 I posted. BTW that is an INCREDIBLY white copy! I browsed the beginning of the thread too fast. You're right, not different from everything else on the thread up to then, esp the raft cover on TT 15 -- not to say that Fago's vision wasn't distinctive. This thread might be a good way for me to finally get a handle on Chad Grothkopf. Were some of the covers you posted by him? Early Terry Toons? Jack

I'm stoked about this one! I bought one of the rare green copies of shiverbone's Pickle! or the do-swan, along with the original art for the cover and pages 1-7 and 9-13 from Matthew a few VCCs ago. He had sold page 8 to a friend, and he knew that I was jonesin' to complete the set, OCD completist that I am. Matthew recently contact the friend, who was gracious enough to sell me the missing page (without even gouging). So the entire book's artwork is reunited! Here's page 8 , best I could do without scan-stitching software and with no camera handy. Printed book Cover artwork Thanks, 'bones! Jack (Waiting patiently for Pixar to buy up the options on Pickle and Peetshaw)

It's a good thing that frogs don't have beaks. Jack You spend too much time worrying about hurt beaks. What? Just the right amount of time! It's a good thing that elephants don't have beaks. Jack

It's a good thing that frogs don't have beaks. Jack

Whoever it is, I think the movement is called proto-Kirscht, isn't it? With a cherry on top Jack

YASSIR! Speaking of different from everything else on the thread -- those Ziff-Davis painted covers really stand out. Al Anderson? Jack

I'm enjoying the thread! No time to post this morning, but this one stopped me in my tracks. Fago really had a distinctive vision, didn't he? The layout and character designs are different from everything else (so far) on the thread. Look at the swirling water! Jack

New Yorker cartoon controversy cover! I wonder whether Harry Bliss first saw this remake or the Tales to Astonish 34 original. The new-oid reports all mentioned the original. Would somebody please explain the upside-down peace sign? Does it mean that she's oblivious? Jack

Another "finity" cover as mardibones called it. Was it common for infinity covers to end after just 2 cycles? I suppose it was tough to draw anything recognizable that small. Jack
