Unlikely Comic Book Characters
Some time ago, LeFalcon posted a picture of a comic book cover featuring supervillain “Paste Pot Pete.” Unfortunately this image is no longer available. Here’s another:

Spiderman opening
At noon on days when I was six, channel 44 from Chicago showed the Marvel Superhero cartoons from the sixties. These cartoons were shorts featuring in turn six of that company’s characters, Spiderman, the Hulk, Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, and the Submariner. The opening of the Spiderman cartoon gave me a thrill, a rush of tension in my upper arms and middle chest. When I saw it on youtube, I still got precisely the same thrill. It’s interesting how persistent a conditioned response can be! So here’s the stimulus.

Funny Times, November 2008
Many columns and cartoons this month ridiculing Wall Street and its enablers in Washington for the financial meltdown and the bailout that followed. The “Minister of the Treasury of the Republic of America” joke email is included.
“Curmudgeon” gives a series of quotes about gluttony, fatness, and dieting. The best is a line from P. G. Wodehouse: “She looked as if she had been poured into her clothes and had forgotten to say ‘when.'”
Keith Knight asks how the corporate media would treat Sarah Palin if she were black anda Democrat. Here’s his scenario:

Another “White Boy” Strip
In April, I posted about the 1930s newspaper comic White Boy by Garrett Price and included an image of one strip as a sample. Below is another.
1 April 1934
Price had a real gift for landscapes. You can see two White Boy strips featuring landscapes here.

White Boy
Several years ago I visited the Eiteljorg Museum in Indianapolis. There was an exhibition of paintings by a group of artists who were active in the 1930s and 1940s. They developed a style that showed the influence of southwestern Native American art. The first painting I saw looked extremely familiar. When I saw that the painter was Garrett Price, I knew why. In the mid 30s, Price created a comic strip called WHITE BOY. Two Sunday installments of the strip were reproduced in a book my parents had when I was a kid, The Smithsonian Collection of American Newspaper Comics. Those strips fascinated me; the same style Price and his fellow painters of the southwestern school used in their paintings was featured there.
Several WHITE BOY strips are scanned in and available for viewing at this address:
