Mixed Up Comic

Stop! Don't tell me. There is something wrong with this picture but I can't quite figure it out.

This comic quacks me up. (You can moan now)

Willie

I thought this comic, taken from Sparkler Comics comic book, was kinda cute. What do you think?

Mutt and Jeff

Mutt and Jeff was the first successful American newspaper comic printed as a strip of panels instead of a single panel. It originated back in 1907 and at first focused on a single character.

It later became a comic book. Here is the comic being used as an advertisement for the San Francisco Chronicle.

Captain Marvel Junior

This Captain Marvel Junior comic book was published in 1947. The character actually first appeared in 1941. He was actually a spin off of the Captain Marvel superhero in that he turned into Captain Marvel but as a teenage boy.

He also said "Captain Marvel" to transform instead of saying "Shazam".

Fritzi Ritz

Fritzi Ritz started out as a somewhat shallow figure who mainly thought about men and clothes and money. Eventually she became a down to earth woman when Nancy came along. Nancy started out as a house guest but somewhere along the line Fritzi was Nancy's aunt. I'm speaking of  Nancy from the Nancy and Sluggo comic.

I always liked this cartoon but don't you even think I'm that old. :-) Fritzi got her start in 1922. Sh was still going strong in the funnies in the 60's.

Beetle Bailey

Beetle Bailey has always been one of my favorite cartoon characters, even before I joined the army. I wish it was in the public domain so more stories could be created but unfortunately it is not.

This cartoon script pretty much sums up the relationship between Beetle and Sergeant Snorkel.

Remind you any of Gomer Pyle and Sergeant Carter?

Comics From the Past

Enjoy these comic panels from the past. The one with the brainy boy coming home from school reminds me of Young Sheldon.

Am I right?
