All images in this document are of the actual comics being offered for sale. Please send any inquiries to [email protected], and thanks for your interest... OPEN with a SPACED-OUT SET ... First 17 Issues of THE JETSONS ... $250 firm On Sept. 23, 1962, THE JETSONS premiered on ABC-TV; it went off the air one year later. Back then, certain "sitcom" and TV cartoons quickly spawned comic books. That's what's offered here — the first 17 issues of THE JETSONS. Modeled on the TV series, these comic-book escapades are different. The characters were altered, too. Elroy often displays an "attitude." Rosie the Robot turns into a neat freak and chases George Jetson with a broom, something we never saw on TV. 1 I bought these 17 month by month and, after Issue #4, stopped making pen marks on them. (You're glad, and I'm relieved.) Overstreet's comic-price guide values THE JETSONS debut issue at $171 as long as it's in "very fine" condition. MY first issue is no more than "okay." Issue #2 is the only dilapidated specimen: Sadly, it has NO FRONT or BACK COVER. July 1964 to September '65 (which is #17 and the last one here) are good, very good, or fine. BTW, the rating pros say "fine" beats "very good." (They have their methods...) You might be a trader, or an original Jetsons TV viewer, recalling the 1960s with ease by being in your sixties today. In any case, I need $250 to turn over all 17 issues. Since I'll be delivering in person, you'll be able to evaluate the rise in quality from the opening few all the way to Issue #17. NOTE: This original JETSONS comic-book series ran all the way to a 36th issue in 1970. Acquire this set of 17 and you'll own 47% of the vintage series! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From here on, single issues are named in bolded blue all-cap text. SETS are bolded and all-cap, too, but they're the color of purple... BUGS BUNNY — from Issue #89 (June 1963) to #98 (March 1965), with issues 90 and 96 missing. Published bi-monthly. Bugs needs no introduction, but remember that this rabbit was a late-'30s parody of the "Bugsy" mobsters then enflaming headlines. As a role model for young boys anticipating the world's ways — So long, Screwy, see ya in St Louie! — no harsher a term than "con man" could be affixed to this legend. Bugs wasn't human, but the lesson is that one need not be a timid bunny. For these eight issues, $50. BUGS BUNNY SHOWTIME — Gold Key 30000-210, Issue #86, October 1962. A double issue — they ran 80 pages! — with all the Warner Brothers regulars plus Pepe Le Pew, Henry Hawk, Mary Jane & Sniffles, and Speedy Gonzales. I thought this issue would be a rarity, but...no such luck. Am asking just $20. DAFFY DUCK — Gold Key, offered quarterly. This set covers March '63 to June '65, numbers 32 to 41, except for the missing #35. Two of the covers are shown on page five. Daffy did his job as the foil for Bugs during half a century. For these nine Daffy issues, overall in good shape — $100. CAVE KIDS — a Hanna-Barbera creation, published quarterly by Gold Key. I can't even remember buying these seven issues, which is okay, given how they now seem a mundane attempt to play off The Flintstones — a linkage that justifies violating alphabetical order to help this document flow... 2 Issue #2 — 10044-305; MAY 1963 — dog-eared, guest Wally Gator Issue #3 — 10044-311; NOV 1963 — two copies, condition just OK Issue #4 — 10044-403; MAR 1964 — Getting better, but cover "F.G" Issue #5 — 10044-406; JUN 1964 — Boundary lines on back cover Issue #6 — 10044-409; SEP 1964 — B+ and completely clean Issue #8 — 10044-503; MAR 1965 — cover scrape, top right Issue #10 — 10044-509; SEP 1965 — B (also for Bullwinkle "ad") For these seven of the first 10 Cave Kids comics — $100 FLINTSTONES, The — Every month Gold Key pumped out another issue to take advantage of a cartoon show that cracked the national Top 25 during its first two seasons. Among my survivors — they start with Issue #10 from April '63, and quit in July '64 at #19 — several months are missing, and half of the stack is in an unimpressive state. As for content? The show pretty much went to Hell after Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm arrived — and some of these issues appear to have been through Hell... Looks like this set has led to confusion. So, how about this: If you'll take the 17 JETSONS comics for their $250 asking price, you can have these 18 "Flintstoners" for free. HECKLE and JECKLE — Gold Key 10015-211 — Issue #1, November 1962. Debut issues have extra value, but not this one. It's raggedy enough that anyone who buys $50 of anything else shown here can have it for free. The copyright for this series debut was held by "Terrytoons," a division of CBS Films Inc. Known back then as the Magpies — "long-tailed often black- and-white birds related to the jays" — Heckle and Jeckle are closer to all BEAK. In fact, for my 12 cents in late-'62 currency, they're the crudest- looking birds ever committed to comic-book antiquity. And how rough a shape is this issue in? The binding is rickety, the edges dinged up, and the cover has the tracings of a 7 1/2-year-old on his way to knowing better. Special issue, September 1964: HEY THERE, IT's YOGI BEAR! — "based on Yogi's first full-length motion picture." Price: $30. The back-page pin-up, featuring Yogi gazing at love interest Cindy, differs from the front, which has sidekick Boo Boo on Yogi's back as he peddles a unicycle AND carries Cindy. As a six-year old, I assumed that football coach Yogi Berra was a take-off on the cartoon character, rather than the other way around. Mr. and Mrs. J. EVIL SCIENTIST — Issue #2, Gold Key 10093-502, FEB 1965. Price: $100 (with two debut issues thrown in). A whopping 15 months 3 separated the debut issue from the one spotlighted in this entry. (You can infer how the industry managed supply & demand!) The wife of Mr. Evil is named Goonda; she is drawn like a cross between "Natasha" on Rocky & Bullwinkle and Carolyn Jones's "Lucretia," who from September '64 on was wife to John Astin on The Addams Family. Issue #2, for which I'm asking $100, is in very good condition. Give this #2 a good home, and you can have two crummy copies of the #1 issue (dated November 1963) for free. JONNY QUEST — Issue #1, Gold Key 10139-412 — $150 for this Hanna- Barbera standout. Probably the most internationally minded set of cartoon characters from the 20th century, Quest deserved more than the single season it got from ABC during 1964-65. This debut issue — in good condition and something of a rarity — leads with "The Mystery of the Lizard Men." KING LEONARDO and his Short Subjects — Just four issues comprise this Gold Key series, yet it was a brilliant array of Saturday a.m. TV characters… Issue #3 — 10001-303 — March 1963 — uses tape for binding Issue #3 spare — even worse — no cover — pages are loose Issue #4 — 10001-309 — September 1963 — shows a lot of use Published quarterly, copyright "Leonardo Television Productions." I've got only two of the four to sell, condition weak. Free for any good customer. KRAZY KAT — Gold Key 10098-401, Issue #1, January 1964 — Price $20 Needs to be rebound — as in restapled — otherwise, condition good LITTLE MONSTERS, The — "Orrible Orvie and Awful Annie" were insipid attempts to milk the mid-'60s popularity of The Addams Family and The Munsters. K.K. Publications holds the copyright; hard to discern the schedule, and all I've got is this one issue: Number 2, Gold Key 10130-502, from February 1965, in very good condition. Asking just $15. MISTER MAGOO — Issues #3 and 4. Condition is good on both. As for content? Talk about milking a physical gimmick! As a half-blind millionaire, Magoo tries to water-ski on a beach, mistakes a NASA-like command post for "an enemy sabotage cell," thinks every statue in a wax museum is a real person (and warns Napoleon not to hurt anyone with that sword), assumes he's exploring a cave while in the subway tunnel — and so on. This Magoo era is Dell, not Gold Key; UPA Pictures is the copyright-holder; and both of these two issues, from the Spring and Summer of '63, can be yours for $30. 4 5 MAGILLA GORILLA — Gold Key plus Hanna-Barbera; these four for $100 Issue #1 — 10116-405 — May 1964 — has a couple of markings Issue #4 — 10116-503 — March 1965 Issue #5 — 10116-505 — May 1965 4, 5 and 6 are very good Issue #6 — 10116-508 — August 1965 PETER POTAMUS, Introducing Breezly and Sneezly, the Arctic Cut-ups — Gold Key 10137-501 — January 1965 was the premiere, as well as the end. Which makes this the one and only Peter Potamus specimen. Again, no comic book being offered here has been professionally graded.

  • Ll Be Your Huckleberry
    I’ll Be Your Huckleberry It is amazing what will spark a memory. I was transferring a client’s film today and the Christmas scene that appeared on the screen was of a young boy who had just received an inflatable punching bag in the image of Huckleberry Hound. I had one of those. And I certainly remember Hanna-Barbera’s Huckleberry Hound being a favorite cartoon when I was growing up. But my memory played a trick on me. I would have sworn that the Huckleberry Hound Show that I watched as a youngster consisted of three segments: Huckleberry himself; Yogi Bear and Boo-Boo (whose segment eventually became more popular than those of the titular star); and (I thought) Quick Draw McGraw with his sidekick “bing bing bing” Ricochet Rabbit. But I was wrong. Quick Draw had his own show. The third segment for Huck, as he is familiarly known to his young fans, involved a pair of mice, Pixie and Dixie, and the object of their abuse, the cat Mr. Jinx. Just goes to show how memories can tend to distort and blend together over time. A few trivia tidbits about this cartoon from my past: Huckleberry Hound debuted in 1958 and featured a slow moving, slow talking blue dog who held a multitude of jobs and always seemed to succeed due to either luck or an obstinate persistence. Huck was voiced by Daws Butler who also provided the voices for Wally Gator, Yogi Bear, Quick Draw McGraw, and Snagglepuss. Daws Butler fashioned the voice of Yogi Bear after Art Carney’s portrayal of Ed Norton in The Honeymooners.

Dwyer has called “pop nostalgia,” a set of critical affective responses to representations of previous eras used to remake the present or to imagine corrective alternatives to it. Longings for the Fifties, Dwyer observes, were especially key to America’s self-fashioning during the Reagan era (2015). Moving from these premises, I turn to anachronisms, aesthetic resonances, and intertextual references that point to, as Mark Fisher would have it, both a lost past and lost futures (Fisher 2014, 2-29) in the episodes of the Hanna-Barbera animated series The Jetsons produced for syndication between 1985 and 1987. A product of Cold War discourse and the early days of the Space Age, the series is characterized by a bidirectional rhetoric: if its setting emphasizes the empowering and alienating effects of technological advancement, its characters and its retrofuture aesthetics root the show in a recognizable and desirable all-American past.

Jim Cummings (Jellystone!, 2020-present) In the Universe informationSpeciesWestern lowland gorillaGenderMale Magilla Magilla Gorilla is a fictional gorilla and star of the Magilla Gorilla Show Hannah-Barbera, which aired from 1964 to 1965. Also Brazilian boxer Adilson Rodriguez named himself Magilla after the cartoon. The description of the character Magill Gorilla (voiced by Allan Melvin) - anthropomorphic gorilla, who spends his time languishing in the window of the pet store Melvin Peebles, eating bananas and draining the finances of the businessman. Peebles (voiced by Howard Morris and then Dock Messik) significantly reduced the price of Magilla, but Magilla was invariably bought only for a short time, usually by some thieves who needed a gorilla to break into a bank or an advertising agency, looking for a mascot for their new product. Customers always end up returning Magilla, forcing Peebles to return their money. Magilla often finished episodes with his catchphrase We'll Try Again next week. Many of Hannah-Barbera's animal characters were dressed in human accessories; Magilla Gorilla wore a bow tie, suspender shorts and an unfinished derby hat. The only client really interested in getting trouble-prone Magigly was a little girl named Ogi (voiced by Gene Vander Phil and the uttering of Oh Gee!). During the theme of the cartoon song, We have a gorilla for sale, she asks, hopefully, how much is this gorilla in the window? (turn to the old standard, (How much) Is The Dog in the window?), but she's never been able to convince her parents to let her keep Magilla.

Title: Imagining the Future into Reality: An Interdisciplinary Exploration of The Jetsons. Abstract approved: _____________________________________________________ Eric Hill This investigation examines The Jetsons’ vision of the future and tracks to what extent the content of the show is relevant to the modern era, both technologically and socially. Much of the dazzling technology in the show feels familiar, and most of it is either already available or is in development, so the innovations of the present are largely keeping pace with the show’s vision. Culturally, the show reflects the values of the era in which it was created (in the 1960s), and despite the show’s somewhat dated outlook on culture and society, we can still empathize and see our own modern experiences reflected back at us through an animated futuristic lens. Therefore, The Jetsons serves as a touchstone for our hopes for the future as well as the experiences of the past and the values and goals of the
