  1. A rip-roaring rodeo round up of fun!! L. B. Cole funny animal cover art:
  2. Hi, guys 'n' gals. Open invitation to my town, Tampa Bay.
  3. Dr. as opposed to Nurse comics. Ben Casey, Dr. Kildare, The Young Doctors, etc.
  4. Agreed. Double Dame covers even more so. 2 Women for the price of 1? I think not.
  5. Me too. I'll go dig out my Dell and Charlton nurse comics. Plus some others you may like. (Probably never seen Gerber 9 or 10s.) What about Dr. comics?
  6. That's what I thought. I can't look it up at the moment. What are the numbers based on the Overstreet/CGC conditions of each, I meant.
  7. Which is more valuable? Spidey 20 or the APC?
  8. Nice work. I'll stick it in the Homage thread over in Modern. OK?
  9. Why Chicks Cry http://johnglenntaylor.blogspot.com/2009/06/66-panels-why-chicks-cry.html They say that into every life a little rain must fall, especially if you are a female trapped in a romance comic. I never read romance comics much, and more's the pity, because I could have learned a lot about the fairer sex, such as what makes them cry. Turns out, pretty much anything... Headaches Low self-esteem Disillusionment Sudden paralysis Sudden Rains Foolish shallow dreams Snowflakes Weddings Darkness Burning the meatloaf Indecision Gaining weight Realization of ugly truths Inability to love Losing a bundle at the dog track Separation Finding out Ringo is married Getting braces caught Caring too much Being evicted Hypothermia Two-timing Seasickness Circus animalsPretenders Proposals Knowledge Chipping a nail Being psycho Dating a crying fetishist Being pitied Inability to dance Having an unsightly elbow wart Identity Crises Birds Having weird reflections People in general Fear of leaves Speech impediments Steve Trevor failing to return your calls Being wrong Onions, placed under your pillow by sneaky kid brother Controlling mothers Being an artist Running out of caviar Loving too much Constantly being mistaken for someone else Psychoactive substances Ants Typographical errors Being put in the "Friend Zone" Being a fool Sunburns Being rejected Car exhaust fumes Full moons Chipping two nails Reading romance comics Getting knocked up Pet deaths Not being able to afford go-go boots Dating an impotent guy Failing to pay the water bill, thus incurring a 5% late fee Guys named Harry Pipe smoke Your first hickey
  10. I play a game with people I don't know online. Place two works of art next to each other and ask if it's theft, swipe, homage or coincidence. The time between when the works was created is key to the artists motivation as well as when the art was made. People in the past would think a long enough time has passed and no one will remember. What with the vast internet archives and the, "Gotcha" mentality, one cannot get away with theft anymore. Eventually, maybe after the artist is dead, someone will put the pieces together and out the artist. These days, one would be adjured to sign any artwork homage/swipe, "After Kirby, (then the artist's name)" or be labeled a swiper/thief. How would you describe photo referencing? Unknown stock photos v. famous images that are iconic? Source the icons. Stock photos of, say, people/animals/buildings, etc are fair game. Discuss, please.
