I again apologise for the lousy quality of these comics but they’re the best I can find on the internet.
The April 5th plot is imaginative, if nothing else. I like the galloping beavers in the last panel. There’s a lot of content in the panel but the composition is such that it’s not cluttered. And there’s perspective, too.
Did Ranger Smith ever get as emotional on TV as he did in the first panel of the April 12th comic? In his first appearances, he had a quiet annoyance. Pretty good expression on Yogi, too.
Sorry, I have trouble believing Yogi’s so stupid, he doesn’t know what a fossilised skeleton is. This is from April 19th.
I don’t see Snooper in the April 26th comic, but Blabber’s there. We get Huck, the meeces, Mr. Jinks, Augie Doggie and Doggie Daddy, Quick Draw and Baba Looey, Snagglepuss, Chopper, Yakky and Hokey Wolf. Oh, and Boo Boo, Cindy and Ranger Smith. And three silhouette piles of characters.

Oops. Didn't you mean April 19 and 26 instead of August 19 and 26, Yowp? :?

ReplyDeleteBruce, you can now tell how far in advance I am on the other blog. I've got the wrong month in my head.
ReplyDeleteI kinda liked the idea of the H-B characters from the Huck / Quick Draw / Yogi shows getting together on occasion. Though I’ll also emphasize “on occasion”. It’s not as if they didn’t do it in the no-longer-seen interstitials, within each individual show.
ReplyDeleteAnd, the “Yogi’s Birthday gathering” thing really worked well in the Dell comic book “Yogi Bear Birthday Party” (Dell Four Color # 1271, also drawn by Harvey Eisenberg), for anyone who remembers that!
We should have seen more of Huck, though. If your paper didn’t carry the top tier, you’d think he wasn’t there.
And Hokey could have asked Yogi how being on “The Huckleberry Hound Show” could lead to his having his own show!
