BB-Gun Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Jerry sent a copy of the Who's Who to anyone that contributed a few bucks to the GCD. My copy looks like the above. It isn't as user friendly as the site. I suspect that Ray and a few other GCD people also have the database. bb D'OH! I probably do have that set of disks -- Who's Who is on it? Must be nearly the final version. I had forgotten all about it. I remember looking at some scanned fanzines, so I must have the disks. (I wonder where they are.) Jack My copy has "Jerry's Files and Scans" written on it (copy 3 from 2006). It is one disk which contains Alter Ego 1-4, Capa Alpha 1-20, Comicollector 1-6, Panelologist, Who's Who database and a bunch of other stuff. It was a thrill for me to finally see the complete AE issues after 45 years. I enjoyed reading the old ads in Comicollector. And my name was mentioned in the Who's Who in comic fandom from 1964. page 27 bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GACollectibles Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I wish I could download the entire database for safekeeping since I bet you one day it will be gone. Do you have a download? I am most afraid since last night I realized that The Comic Strip Project has gone the way of the Dodo. I had planned on saving the info ... but of course never came around to do it. Now, I can't look up which syndicated strips Bob Fujitani worked on in what year Oh carp, that is a great reference site! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought On the Drawing Board was on the disk but I couldn't find it. The Comic Reader would only be on the disks if it was prepared by Jerry. The Rocket's Blast was GB Love's work and not on the disk. I have a lot of both of those titles but they are fading. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 (edited) Hitler vs. Gremlins Very funny! Mel Blanc used the line "Mit der Friz Freleng ...und mit der Sauerbraten!" but if sounded German. No mention of Hasenpfeffer? Maybe I missed it. bb Edited January 31, 2009 by BB-Gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selegue Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I hope BangZoom doesn't mind me using this thread to tell a funny -- OK, mildly amusing -- tale about my Hit Comics 8, February 1941, just received yesterday from skypinkblu (thanks). Neon the Unknown cover attributed to Lou Fine (?) at GCD. Looks like his work to me. Ever since I've learned about Neon the Unknown, I've been hoping to find an affordable Hit Comics featuring him on the cover (element connection). Obvious problems like tape on the spine and edge chips, but this is not a bad-looking reader copy. (Let's say that it's a good thing that Neon only appeared on the FRONT cover.) I wanted to show a few pages and decided to check the Golden Age UK site rather than abusing my copy on the scanner. I downloaded the microfiche images that just appeared there and found the pages that I wanted. Apologies that they're so fuzzy. Here's two pages from Betty Bates, Lady-at-Law. Not a feature that's screaming for a revival, I don't think. Signed by "Stanley Charlot" -- GCD says that Nick Cardy drew it! Very odd, stylized style. Look at the figures here, like the bizarre faces in panel 6 of page 9 (carbon monoxide in the last panel!) and panel 7 of page 13, plus the stretched-out legs and high waists in panels 3 and 8 of page 13. Weird! Here's a fun gag page, Tommy Tinkle (ahem) by "Sandy Klauz" (Arthur Beeman). Sam Snipe in his odd ghost costume in panel 1 totally cracks me up. He wouldn't be out of place in a Robert Crumb strip. I really like the almost "clear line" style on Lion Boy by "Merton Holmes", apparently by George Tuska! Isn't that an attractive page? Great ape profile in panel 5. One of the best pages in the book is the Neon the Unknown splash page. Signed "Tagor Maroy", GCD says Alex Blum (?) -- seems right to me. Unusual page layout. Neon's powers are so ill-defined, with "neonic screens", "neonic rays" and neonics socks to the jaw. And here's where I was surprised. Red Bee splash page for a wild marijuana story by "B. H. Apiary" (HAW!) -- GCD says Saul Rosen(?). He almost a Raboy style in his pencils and inks, maybe because of photo swipes. That miscut page folded up at the bottom looks suspiciously familiar -- because it's got to be my copy that was microfiched! No way that exact defect, the marks on the front cover, and the lack of a back cover could be coincidence! Golden Age comics really are addictive, aren't they?

Flee-Marquette Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Does anyone have the comic that goes with this record? Don't have the comic but I do notice that the story is told by Daws Butler who later went on to become the voice of Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, Snagglepuss, Captain Crunch and many others. In junior high out in California, I took an animation class and he came in and gave a workshop on that aspect of the cartoon industry. He was second only to Mel Blanc in influence in the voice-acting field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The artists was also a well know cartoonist but I don't have an example of his work yet. bb From the Who's Who: MILLAR, MELVIN Name and vital stats MILLAR, MELVIN (letterer) Pen names TUBBY MILLAR Assisted Jack Bradbury and Al Hubbard [on lettering] c1950-56 > 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 Comics Studio (Shop) SANGOR STUDIO [west coast] STUDIO (let/) 1940s-50s > 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 MARVEL COMICS Support (let/) 1950 via SANGOR STUDIO > 50 WESTERN PUBLISHING Support (let/) 1956- > 56 57 58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
