I&#39;ll consider that a request! My personal favorite was either Richie Rich or Spooky, or maybe Jumbo; but I loved them all. But you are right - the most obsessive was Little Dot! <br /><br />Yes, it was a strange world indeed. At times, it could be very starnge, particularily if Ernie Colon was the artist - he often drew the demonic, thick eyebrows and all the heavy shadows. -- MykalMykalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12148489896145024134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028911836649669351.post-76114829610736509972009-10-21T19:04:55.075-04:002009-10-21T19:04:55.075-04:00Yay! Harvey Comics! My favorite was Baby Huey but I loved them all. All the Harvey characters had compulsive obsessive disorders. Obsessed with food, dots, money, being liked, being scary, not wanting to be scary, etc... <br /><br />The worlds they lived in were odd and mysterious to me, like a weird dream or borderline nightmare.KWhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01792617397718781026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028911836649669351.post-67447220349748055032009-10-20T21:44:13.931-04:002009-10-20T21:44:13.931-04:00Brad!

Yeah, that bullfighter is just hysterical. Post had a knack. <br /><br />I couldn&#39;t agree more about <i>Toon Treasury</i> overlooking entirely Harvey Comics! I thought the book was magnificent, but c&#39;mon! Not a single entry from <i>Little Audrey, Little Dot</i>, or <i>Hot Stuff</i>? Or <i>Spooky</i> or <i>Richie Rich</i>! What were they thinking? rest assured, over time, I will do what little I can to give Harvey their due! <br /><br />Plus, I would have paid a fortune for the Dark Horse editions of the Harvey comics if they had been in Hardback, with artist indexes! - MykalMykalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12148489896145024134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6028911836649669351.post-4243500565476898392009-10-20T10:24:28.931-04:002009-10-20T10:24:28.931-04:00Hot stuff is always great stuff!<br />And you&#39;re absolutely right: Howie Post&#39;s is really a fine art! And funny mostly. This torero is above current conventions. It&#39;s hard to imagine one goin&#39; to fight the toro with glasses. I like a lot this Mr. Magoo touch!<br />By the way, I missed some Hot stuff story (or any Harvey story) in the recent &quot;The Toon Treasury of Classic Children&#39;s Comics&quot; despite all my favorite artists are in there--<br />Well, maybe Craig Yoe&#39;s edition amends this &quot;oversight&quot;!Gabrielhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16795779964678109450noreply@blogger.com
