Apocolyte: Gordon was awesome (and I don't use that term lightly). I think I first saw Gordon's stuff a few years ago (I believe) on John K's animation/cartoon blog. I, too, fell head over heals. -- Mykal

Cool! Dan Gordon is one of my new fave artists! He draws as you say, with just the right touches to make his characters look solid and real, very funny stuff! I first saw this pair on a Pappy post and fell in luv! Thanks!

R/E" I had NOT caught the LSMFT ad on page 3 - good one! Superkatt was a crime fighting cat that wore a diaper, blue baby bonnet, and big blue bow tie as a uniform. Why? A spoof on the glut of superhero animal (SuperMouse, Atomic Mouse, Super Rabbit) in the 1940s? I don't know. Just Gordon's genius. -- Mykal

What a hoot! I had never seen Giggle Comics before. I think Humphrey is the real star (what's with the bonnet and diaper on Superkatt???). Love the caricature of Hope & Crosby on page 1. Humphrey kind of reminds me of Meathead in the Screwball Squirrel cartoons by Avery. Did you catch the LSMFT (Lucky Strike Means fine Tobacco) add in place of the Train Line name. Why wasn't I born a collie instead of handsome... my new motto.
best,
