I guess I'm supposed to feel insulted, but that would be predicated on me actually caring what you think.

Ooooh... let's play Internet Fight Club!

QuoteIndeed... much like the comic book marketplace. We can look forward to the post-New Riverdale cycle of Archie by the time Trump leaves the Oval Office.

Archie Comics won't exist in eight years.   

Well, it's quite possible (you might even say likely) that ARCHIE COMIC PUBLICATIONS won't exist in eight years. Or in four, which is pretty much what I meant by "post-New Riverdale". But where did I say it would? I highly doubt that would mean that Archie stories would cease to be printed by someone (probably not in the floppy comics format...). I'm okay with that idea.

PS - You think New Riverdale comics might last up to EIGHT years before putting ACP out of business?! That's almost as unlikely as Trump being re-elected.

Betty Boop 2-4. For some reason I wasn't that into the first issue. Maybe it was just my mood when I read it. But I spead through these last 3 this weekend. The art for some reason reminds me of Kennel Block Blues. I loved the humor and old fashioned vocab. Anyone have any recs with similar type of humor? How do these compare to the old Betty Boop comics?

Never heard of Kennel Block Blues.

Recommendations for comics similar to Betty Boop.

You could try Roger Langridge's Popeye from IDW. Nothing else remotely similar to BB in the comic book market that I'm aware of.

I have some of those. I'll give them a go. I had a feeling you would say Popeye because of the similar time period.

Not so much that, as for the fact that both DE's Betty Boop and IDW's Popeye comic books were written by Roger Langridge - and of course both characters were originally animated cartoon stars from the Fleischer Brothers studio, even though Popeye originated as a newspaper comic strip character. The Fleischer animators had an urban, "New York" sensibility, unlike the other major animation studios like Disney and Warner Brothers, which were California based.

Cartoons from my childhood on Amazon Prime: Gumby, David the Gnome.

Unless you're a lot older than I think you are, you're talking about the 1988 revival of Gumby (thank Eddie Murphy and his SNL skit "I'm Gumby, dammit!"). The original Gumby aired on NBC in 1956-57, and then in syndication from 1962-68 (for a total of 130 episodes). 99 new episodes were made for The Gumby Adventures in 1988.

I think they showed reruns in the 90s or maybe I was watching the 80s episodes.

Yes, the 99 episodes first aired in 1988 continued to be rerun into the early 1990s (and possibly the original 130 episodes, as well). There were some Gumby comic books, and even a movie, around the same time.

You must be a Trump Republican, then. It's okay, Trumpian.: These things go on in cycles. Your party will overreach, and you'll be back on the outside. Enjoy it--for now...

The other thing to mention here is that there are several stories where Archie and his friends are definitely referred to as upperclassmen (which would include both Juniors and Seniors). There are innumerable stories with Reggie "giving the business" (as Eddie Haskell used to say on Leave It To Beaver) to some frosh, which he could hardly expect to get away with as a Sophomore. Yet there are also stories where some particular incidental character is referred to as being a Senior, which would never be mentioned if Archie and the gang were themselves Seniors. Taken altogether with other things we know like them all having driver's licenses (apart from maybe Jughead - although I think I may have even seen a story or two with him driving), and never thinking about college or post-graduation plans (which they would literally be forced to as Seniors) leads to the only reasonable conclusion... they are Juniors, which neatly accounts for all of these things.

Jughead's driven as far back as the 40's fwiw.

That's what I was talking about, but stories where Jughead is behind the wheel of car seem to have become increasingly rare as the decades have passed.

I don't know what you're seeing on your tablet when you're composing, but the above quote is an example of what we're seeing.

Yeah, there's a point there (I don't think it's in 273, but actually 274) where it seems like 10 pages into it, there's an entire issue missing. They named all the cities where they were supposed to study, and when they'd just gotten going they just skipped over one city entirely. It's not even mentioned in passing (as if you're just supposed to forget they mentioned that city originally), and a couple of the others were severely compacted.

Just checking. Anyone know how many pages back I have to go to find the posts about Sears/K-Mart? 

I look forward to the day when I can actually list RIVERDALE here as having been cancelled.
Unlike most of these cancellations, ACP doesn't get to decide that, so I'll just have to wait until the ratings decide its fate.

Here's a list of earlier cancellations I posted on another thread back in October.

ARCHIE NEW RIVERDALE COVER BOOK #1
ARCHIES BIG BOOK TP VOL 01 MAGIC MUSIC & MISCHIEF - (WILL RESOLICIT)
ARCHIES COLORING BOOK #1 - (WILL RESOLICIT)
BETTY & VERONICA NEW RIVERDALE COVER BOOK #1
REGGIES 80 PAGE GIANT COMIC #1
SABRINA #8 CVR A REG HACK - (WILL RESOLICIT)
SABRINA #8 CVR B VAR SOUTHWORTH - (WILL RESOLICIT)

I'm sure I probably missed some since then or posted them elsewhere and forgot where, but it is what it is.
