A classic cute animal comic — Doodles Duck

0

Doodles is one of those comic characters little known (and mostly forgotten) by the general public.  But this 1950s character is beloved by a devoted cult.

Gabriel Corbera over at Joyville is one of those afficianados, and he’s got a good selection of scanned pages for you to enjoy.

The comic was created to capitalize on the popularity of POGO (and creator Walt Kelly).  And while Doodles has some endearing charms, he’s no Pogo.

Why not click through and make up your own mind?

Bushmiller-esque Christmas

0

I’m not really a big fan of Nancy and Sluggo — although I read the strip every day in “The Topeka Capital” while growing up, and probably even bought a few comic books.  I thought the art was of the Rubber Stamp School.

Later, I found out this was a spin off of a 1920’s strip staring Fritzi Ritz — later known as Nancy’s “Aunt Fritzi” who was a HOT flapper!  I mean, she was more HBO than NBC, if you know what I mean.

I found these scans at Joyville and thought I’d share … the comments below are from the host web-site.
