Still the king of comicsBy Diego CordobaKing Features Syndicate, who distributed some of the greatest comic strips on Earth, turns a 100 this year. And to celebrate the event, the good folks at the Library Of American Comics bring us this volume with hundreds of strips and the whole story of King Features. For those who donrsquo;t know, it all started with a certain W. Randolph Hearst wanting to spend his money by buying out all the best writers, journalists and cartoonists from the competition, and publish the best-selling journals. You can see it on the Orson Welles film ldquo;Citizen Kanerdquo; that pretty much tells the whole story pretty accurately (for those who donrsquo;t like reading).Anyway, what we want to know here is howrsquo;s about the book, huh? Well, as with every LOAC book, itrsquo;s beautifully designed and packed of information and a large selection of strips. Donrsquo;t worry, the biggies are here too. Samples of Popeye, Bringing up father, Flash Gordon, Prince Valiant, Mandrake, The Phantom, Steve Canyon, Polly and her pals, the Katzenjammer Kids, Blondie, the Lone Ranger, Henry, Krazy Kat (phew), need I go on? King Features had the best strips, though getting all of them in a single book would be a daunting (if not impossible) task. Especially those form the early years, where strips could change in a couple of months or in the middle of their run. But we get the best known, and even some I had never heard of before like the surrealistic ldquo;The Squirrel Cagerdquo; by Gene Ahern (pre-dating Crumbrsquo;s Mr. Natural by more than three decades), the whimsical ldquo;Tippierdquo; beautifully drawn by Edwina Dumm, and many toppers that havenrsquo;t been seen since, well, since they appeared in the papers back then.Since this is the whole story of King Features, it does go up to our days, so we get also the modern strips, some that still exist these days (though itrsquo;s the older ones I was most interested in). So we get Hi and Lois, Hagar the Horrible, Beetle Bailey, and more modern strips like Mutts, Zits, Shoe, etc. They are all here, folks, in a sturdy 300+ page hardcover book, printed on thick matt paper.So far itrsquo;s a winner.Now we get to the letdowns. Yawn, Irsquo;m kinda tired of saying this over and over again, but itrsquo;s still printed too small. Donrsquo;t get me wrong, the modern strips are even bigger than what they look like now in the papers, but the ones from the early years of the 20th century are sometimes impossible to read (I dare anyone to be able to read the daily strips of ldquo;Abie the Agentrdquo; the way they are printed heremdash;I pulled out a magnifying glass and still couldnrsquo;t read rsquo;em, as the letters are all smudged either from the bad printing, or the fact that they were reduced down so much). Back in the old days, these strips ran across all the paper, as broadsheets, five times larger than what you get here. I even have a suspicion that this book was meant to be printed at a larger size (maybe to one of their ldquo;champagne-sizesrdquo; as the Flash Gordon/Jungle Jim volumes), as even the accompanying text seems to be smaller than 9 pt. What gives? Did the publisher nix the idea, and say that it had to printed at a smaller size? I dunno, and really donrsquo;t care. Itrsquo;s just that, fellas, it wouldrsquo;ve been so much cooler at a larger size (not only for us older readers, but so that the kids can see what they are missing today).That said, I love this book, and though I received it a couple of days ago, havenrsquo;t finished reading it, but am already halfway through. If only some of the strips within werenrsquo;t printed so small that you canrsquo;t even read whatrsquo;s inside the word balloons (and it gets tiring straining your eyes after a while).By the way, didya notice that in the endpapers at the beginning of the book the Krazy Kat strip is printed twice?Other than that, I recommend it, even to guys like me who own other similar books. Some strips wersquo;ve already seen reproduced countless times, but there are many I hadnrsquo;t seen before.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Cenntinnal comic strip history treasury bookBy Laura A. FitzgeraldThis book has more archival treasures than I thought possible contained within the covers, and the writing rated rather well to explain the history thoroughly. I hope to acquire more historical archival books like this one for my personal library - thank you so much!!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. King Features: The Idea Warehouse Brought to Stunning LifeBy CWCDean Mullaney's "King of the Comics" is indispensible both for its lush production values and its strong narrative of an all too often forgotten comics giant. Krazy Kat! Popeye! Flash Gordon! Beetle Bailey! Blondie! Prince Valiant! Hagar the Horrible! Barney Google and Snuffy Smith! Baby Blues! Mutt Jeff! Zits! Juliet Jones! Buz Sawyer! Steve Canyon! Bizarro! Hi Lois! Maggie Jiggs! Johnny Hazard! There are simply too many to list because King Features has had a more illustrious and long-lasting history than any newspaper syndicate, even as it continues to lead the way into the digital age and beyond.This book is a centennial birthday bash hosted by Dean Mullaney, Bruce Canwell, and Brian Walker, with contributions by Brendan Burford, Lucy Shelton Caswell, Jared Gardner, Ron Goulart, Jeffrey Lindenblatt, Carl Linich, Paul Tumey, and Germund von Wowern. More than just comics, itrsquo;s a celebration of the profound impact that King Features has had on popular culture!From the earliest days when William Randolph Hearst first added cartoons to his newspapers, comic strips have had a profound impact on popular culture. With the consolidation of Hearstrsquo;s various distribution channels in November 1915, King Features was born. A century later the worldrsquo;s largest syndicate leads the way in the 21st Century and beyond.

  • David Hare, Surrealism, and the Comics Mona Hadler Brooklyn College and the Graduate Center, CUNY
    93 David Hare, Surrealism, and the Comics Mona Hadler Brooklyn College and The Graduate Center, CUNY The history of the comic book in the United States has been closely allied with mass culture debates ranging from Clement Greenberg’s 1939 essay “Avant-Garde and Kitsch” to Fredric Wertham’s attack on the comic book industry in his now infamous 1954 book, Seduction of the Innocent. An alternative history can be constructed, however, by linking the comics to the expatriate Surrealist community in New York in the thirties and early forties with its focus on fantasy, dark humor, the poetics and ethics of evil, transgressive and carnivalesque body images, and restless desire. Surrealist artists are well known for their fascination with black humor, pulp fi ction, and crime novels—in particular the popular series Fantômas. Indeed, the image of the scoundrel in elegant attire holding a bloody dagger, featured in the writings of the Surrealist Robert Desnos (Color Plate 10), epitomized this darkling humor (Desnos 377-79).1 Pictures of Fantômas and articles on the pulp market peppered the pages of Surrealist magazines in Europe and America, from Documents in France (1929-1930) to VVV and View in New York in the early forties. By moving the discussion of the comics away from a Greenbergian or Frankfurt school discourse on mass culture to the debates surrounding Surrealism, other issues come to the fore. The comics become a site for the exploration of mystery, the imagination, criminality, and freedom. The comic book industry originated in the United States in the late thirties and early forties on the heels of a booming pulp fi ction market.
