Funny Picture

Man, I really LOVE that splash page – the art in this story (by Cy King) is super-quirky! And the story is just dumb-as-rocks

This is one of those stories that just sort of "stops" instead of ending.
..and that was “Karrots” by Cy King - From Nutty Life #2 Summer 1946

Crazy cover, huh? Oh, Pearl!

Here's a SpongeBob comic book story which I wrote and drew  for Nickelodeon Magazine in 2002 -- during the break between the series' 3rd Season and the Movie: "Hiccup and Away!"

Although he’s most famous for his animal characters (Krazy Kat, Ignatz Mouse and Offisa Pupp), George Herriman’s cartooning magic worked just as well when he’s working with a “hoomin” cast of Characters. Here’s a giant daily strip from his series “Stumble Inn.”


…and here’s the whole strip in mega-resolution below…

Here’s an amazing golden-age comic story from 1949: “Love Came Second” by Joe Kubert. The full pages are posted down below, but before we get there, take a look at some of these terrific panels!

Kubert was having a lot of fun with the page layouts here – delighting in page-high panels like those above, and full-width panels like the ones below…

I love these expressionistic background montages!

Pretty wild stuff! Here’s the whole story below.
