STWALLSKULL'S INTERESTING LINKS

TODAY’S FEATURED ITEM:
Boing Boing and Drawn! point us to the new, easily searchable, and overwhelming Time-Life photography archive hosted by Google featuring over 10 million historical images, many of which were never before published. What an amazing resource. Above is a crop from a photo I found there of Charles Schulz gleefully squirting a child with a squirt gun… click the image to go to the archive.

HEY! KIDS! COMICS! : The Complete Peanuts is Online, Opper’s Red Rig-A-Jigs at the Stripper’s Guide : November 12th, 2008

STWALLSKULL'S HEY! KIDS! COMICS!

TODAY’S FEATURED ITEMS:

United Features just made a huge amount of content available online for free at their comics.com site… including the complete Peanuts! Good grief!

UPDATE: Browsing some more, I noticed that in addition to all that Peanuts, they also appear to have a whole lot of Al Capp’s Li’l Abner on there! Unfortunately, Nancy only goes back to 2000, long after the death of the strip’s genius creator Ernie Bushmiller.

Allan Holtz’s excellent Stripper’s Guide blog has some great Frederick Opper strips to celebrate the release of a new Happy Hooligan book from NBM, including a wonderful rarity called The Red Rig-A-Jigs.
