Green Intern posted:Looked ahead on today’s new Dick Tracy, and I am wondering this: I feel like we’ve had a “the villain can’t tell the difference between a tv show/stage play/fictional character and a real person” plot before. Several times in fact. I can’t remember any specific instances, but something about this feel like it’s already ran before. This is a story where a woman who lost her memories and is disguised as a different woman by a mad scientist to replace the original is dressed up as a robot who lost her memory and was disguised as a different woman by a mad scientist to replace the original.

I'm looking forward to Gunther dumping an attractive girl who shares his nerdy hobbies and finds his milquetoast personality charming in the same way I wait for the designated loser character in a comedy to blow his nose with and wad up a winning lottery ticket.

Barnaby (June 10-June 16, 1942)![]() ![]() ![]() Dykes to Watch Out For ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() An interesting time-capsule element of these early DtWOFs is that therapy (as well as vegetarian/vegan diets) are treated pretty expressly as a counter-cultural thing. This'll be a little more pronounced in the early days of the serial strips where we'll meet a character whose initial schtick is basically just always talking about therapy. If anybody knows more about the reception history of mental health professions in the US, or perhaps has more insight on queer culture and mental health in the 80s, I'd be very curious to know more. Sam's Strip (November 23- ![]() ![]() ![]() The Humpty Dumpty in this week's strips is pretty clearly supposed to be John Tenniel's classic rendition from the 1871 Through the Looking Glass, and What Alice Found There perhaps a bit better known as Alice Through the Looking Glass, the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: ![]() I assume "Durante" is the performer Jimmy Durante who was famous for malapropisms and stuff like that. I also imagine that car at the end is a specific car from a specific comic but I have no idea! Hopefully one of you recognizes it?

Well, from my memory of pop culture in the 70s and 80s, being "in therapy" was something that almost always marked a character as a pampered coastal elitist, usually from LA or NYC. There was an assumption that only people from those regions would be wealthy, egotistical, idle, and neurotic enough to need to see a psychiatrist regularly. And yes, people who were in therapy were always ready to drone on about what wonderful insights (and/or excuses for their lovely behavior) they had just learned from their therapist. As for the car in Sam's Strip, I thought at first it was Smokey Stover's Foo Mobile, but that only had two wheels. Rhymes with Orange ![]() Retail ![]() Get Fuzzy 1/23/00 ![]()
