Trojan Comics and Other Tricks

There is no reason for Garg, who had earlier complained that Alley never took him on Oop’s time-traveling escapades, to remember the siege at Troy. But there is good reason for Alley Oop to remember it.




The Name Game

Then yesterday this Vintage Apartment 3-G came up in the Comics Kingdom feed:

I’m guessing it’s a tribute to this Harry Harrison who has credits for writing the Flash Gordon comic strip, rather than this then-ten-year-old Harry Harrison.

More names. That last panel of Tuesday’s Red and Rover has me thinking Red’s new nickname should be Westley.

Liniers seldom disappoints but he did with this Macanudo. There should have been “The MACANUDO” or something (“The MANDELBAUM”) shaded into that white area as faux-embossment. I even enlarged it hoping to see … something. But nothing there, just negative space.

Getting Real


F Minus brings a sad truth to the funny pages, while in Sally Forth Hilary and friends’ visit to an iffy amusement park suddenly takes on a new touch of realism with the news from Saudi Arabia.
Guest Starring


I was under the impression that Luann took place in Southern California and The Family Circus resided in Arizona. That’s a long distance car ride to eat at some fast food joint.
Although >spoiler alert< The Family Circus is vacationing at the ocean next week. So I guess it works.
