He became a continuing character in “Terry.” In a famous “Terry and the Pirates” Sunday page from 1943, Corkin opened with, “Let’s take a walk, Terry,” and then delivered an inspirational talk about A Brush With the war and the Air Force as he and the newly fledged pilot Terry strolled around the flight line. The page was “read” into the Congressional Record and reported in the newspapers. Terry, Flip, and their colleagues had a great following among airmen, and the Air Force By John T.

Caniff produced another strip, “Male Call,” without charge for camp and base newspapers. It featured Miss Lace, who was reminiscent of the Dragon Lady but less standoffish. It is difficult today to comprehend what a big deal the funnies used to be. Everybody read the comic strips. Characters were as well known as movie stars. The strips were printed much larger than present comic strips are. On Sunday, a popular strip might get a whole color page to itself.

    Only the officially-sanctioned genres will be allowed in this field. We assume that this will be accomplished through the database (by a pulldown menu, for example). We assume that the keyword field will be used for more specific information than will be captured in the official genres and that some of the information currently in the genre field will be moved to the keyword field. We recommend that in the future genres may be added to the official list based on their number of uses as keyword and their qualification as a genre. The aspect of age-appropriateness, previously reflected in such genres as Adult, Children, Teen, and reflected in many terms listed in lists of manga genres, is not in fact an aspect of genre. We recommend the addition of a field for publisher-supplied target age designations. We defer any recommendation on whether some sequence types should not accept genre identifications. Though a majority of the members of the committee thought that all stories could be assigned at least one of the first four genres (adventure, drama, humor, non-fiction), the majority of the committee also thought that the user should not be required to first choose one of the first four genres. While it is the intention that stories associated with a particular feature be assigned a genre consistent with the other stories of the feature, genre can also be assigned to stories that are not a part of a feature at all, as with the majority of the stories in the anthologies listed below as examples (Tales from the Crypt, Metal Hurlant, G.I.

  • Comic Strips and Black Newspapers in Postwar Toledo
    Swing Papa and Barry Jordan: Comic Strips and Black Newspapers in Postwar Toledo Angela M. Nelson Introduction Popular culture reflects, symbolizes, and embodies the thoughts, attitudes, beliefs, and values of its producers and audiences.1 Popular culture is that part of all culture that is concerned with pleasure, enjoy- ment, and amusement. Comic art is a form of popular culture dating back to the early 1890s. After the turn of the century, comic strips2 had become a permanent part of white mainstream newspapers and magazines, but black newspapers overall were not as agreeable to their inclusion.3 In short, black newspapers focused their attention on the “serious” issues confronting blacks of that period. However, with the advent of large circula- tion newspapers especially published for black communities coupled with the established tradition of comic strips in major newspapers, many editors of black newspapers began encouraging the inclusion of comic strips.4 The Baltimore Afro-American, Chicago Defender, and Pittsburgh Courier were the leading large circulating black newspapers that included black comic strips following World War I.5 Scholarly essays or chapters written by John Appel, Ian Gordon, Thomas Inge, Steven Jones, John Stevens, and Roland Wolseley examine blacks in comic strips in mainstream newspapers and magazines and/or black comic strips in black newspapers.6 Together these writings are useful for providing descriptive information about black comic strips and charac- ters that are not well-known, for providing comparisons of white and ethnic representations in comic strips, and for bringing attention and structure to this area of study within the field of comic art scholarship.

EMAIL By Edward Kosner Feb. 22, 2013 3:22 pm ET PERMALINK SAVE PRINT TEXT When I was a kid, my randy pals and I were fascinated by the accepted wisdom that Al Capp's "Li'l Abner" comic strip was a trove of pornographic images if you only knew where to look. The idea was that if you clipped the image of a recumbent Daisy Mae from one frame and superimposed on it a sketch of Abner from another, you'd have—well, you get the picture. We never scored, but not for lack of squinting. It turns out that, back in the 1950s, congressional committees actually pored over photostats of Capp strips surreptitiously provided by a resentful rival cartoonist looking for crypto-smut, but they failed to find damning examples. This is but one of the indelicate tales told in Michael Schumacher and Denis Kitchen's "Al Capp: A Life to the Contrary," the first biography of a man who was a pop-cultural comet for four decades but has faded today into a Wikipedia entry.
