He fell below the standards expected of The Angry Vole Society in his response to your Beetle Bailey #66 post. It was deemed by their Continuous Assessment Team to be bordering on calm. Excellent! Glad to see standards being maintained during the leadership crisis. Off to work now, but if the postman is kind I should have some new books to share here when I get home.

I second that motion. May I call for a nomination from the floor for a temporary secretariat to conduct and oversee the business of the King Club in the interim prior to the annual membership vote? And I would also move to express the heartfelt thanks of the King Club for the outstanding service of it's first Secretary. May I have a Second?

I found another answer, as the Nemesis set a fashion standard of black and blue stripes commencing in issue #154 (February 1965) of Adventures of the Unknown. I hereby present article "A" of evidence for the courts convenience. However fate being what it is, this is issue #155 from March of 1965. Which while perhaps not the ultimate conclusive proof of providence that I have claimed, I sincerely hope it is sufficient for the purposes of this somber inquiry.

I know why I have vertical stripes on my underpants, but I don’t think that would apply here. frozentundraguy, Yorick and Azkaban 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozentundraguy Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I made an interesting find in issue #18 of the Phantom. Not only is there a Flash Gordon story in the book but the story art was by Wally Wood. KirbyJack, Azkaban and Yorick 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Today's addition. On another topic, can anybody verify that during the key 1966-1967 run, King only had 7 titles: Flash Gordon, Mandrake, Phantom, Beetle Bailey, Blondie, Popeye, and the weird stray Jungle Jim 1-shot?
