HERE'S MY COMICS Heart of the City is about a precocious young woman named Heart. I picked it up a few months ago, and if there's more direction to it than just sending her off on whatever week-long story the author comes up with (and making Star Wars references), I haven't noticed it. The Boondocks Did you ever see that cartoon called The Boondocks? This is a lot like that. Zippy the Pinhead The joke is that you're reading comic strips. Ripley's Believe It Or Not Is a pale, pale imitation of a once-great and once-informative cartoon panel. These days, it coasts on tracings, Wikipedia scroungings, and boring reader submissions. Dick Tracy Famous dick Dick Tracy does police things and ignores laws to do so. I post the early days of the strip. Today's strips are from April 7-9, 1933, in case you were wondering.

I’ll be traveling for the next few days, so you’ll all have to find some way to get through life without servings of Ripley’s. Moomin’s looking sharp, SubNat!

Feels like someone’s gonna just go through all the comics available, looking for button-pushers like The Duplex and The Flying McCoys.

I hope so. Make Curtis 30 years out of date, instead of 40. First of the catch-up posts. Heart A 2008 rerun, for some reason. A 2011 rerun, for some reason.

Mr. Squishy posted:I jumped into the new thread after getting 300 pages behind. What happened to the art of the strip with the pigman and his girlfriend? Has it gone into reruns from the early days? Heart Docks Zip Rip Dick I glanced ahead, and there's only going to be two more strips with this caricature before the end of our current volume.

I'm gonna drop Heart until it comes out of reruns. Docks Zip Rip Dick And I've got something to add to my line-up. I'm going to be doing it as the full pages of the scan source, since splitting them up would be too much of a hassle for me. Howard the Duck

I really wish Billingsley had better shirt designs on his CafePress site. I’d love to have a big, gormless Curtis grin graphic.

I think it's that Bloom County doesn't have any Sunday strips until May 10th, 1981.

Zereth posted:Is this the size you obtained it at? because this is too small to read for me. Here it is bumped up to 1200x971. And at the same size, but with the nicest-looking Sharpen settings I could work out. If that looks good, I'll go with that routine for the future strips. And if anyone has tips to improve the output (the sharpened one looks kind of chunky to me, especially with the lettering), please put in a word.

Zereth posted:It... doesn't really look good but I can at least read it. The dailies have been fine, note. It's just this sunday was much smaller than them, despite the original preseumably being larger as a Sunday strip. I'm thinking 200 DPI should be sufficient.
