Arkadin Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 It's Sunday, so time to post some Sunday comics. Today, a hodgepodge of esoteric strips. First up, Bruce Gentry, Ray Bailey's nifty aviation strip. This 1948 half-page has it all, from planes to dames - and a generous Sunday helping of cheesecake. Next, a couple of oddball "cave-kid" strips. Peter Piltdown, by Mal Eaton (1938) And a pair of Rocky the Stone-age Kid strips from 1943. Frank Engli, who drew this pretty darn charming strip, also worked on Milton Caniff's Terry and the Pirates - just like Ray Bailey,mentioned above.

BB-Gun Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 I am a fan of those caveman stories. I especially like Hamlin's Alley Oop and Kubert's Tor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 I enjoyed reading Dennis when I was younger but enjoyed it less after I became a parent. Little Archie is still a favorite but a few jelly beans are not enough to buy near mint copies of the early giant editions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 Flash Gordon in the comics is fun to read but the full size pages help you appreciate Raymond's art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkadin Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Added some Flash Gordon to my Sunday strip collection. These are both from 1934, the first year of the strip. Iconic stuff - in glorious full page size with Jungle Jim toppers. Dancing green slave girls three decades before Star Trek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkadin Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 A couple of Johnny Comet Sundays. These strips are really hard to find - in fact, it's easier to buy Johnny Comet original art than the dang clipped strips. So if anyone has some nice Comet tear sheets, either sell 'em to me or at least post 'em! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkadin Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Got this Spirit section recently. Clifford by Jules Feiffer was the regular back page strip from mid-1949 to the end of 1950 (thank you, Grand Comics Database). The one on this section is particularly fun for comic book fans!
