With the end of the seasons of American Chopper and The Celebrity Apprentice comes a change of plans. I now have to find material to fill Monday and Tuesday again. No problem.

Monday: The Late Night Movie House of Crap is back with a clip that will hit every guy right where he lives.
Tuesday: A short but uncomfortable Three Stooges Picture Postcard.
Wednesday: Allan Keyes has a few words on Japanese toilets.
Thursday: S is for Subaru, Part 1
Friday: The Imponderable asks a pretty disgusting question.
Saturday: Superman gets outed on national television

And coming soon! Abbott and Costello Meet The Avengers!

The Saturday Comics: More Little Nemo Homages

26 May

May 26, 2012

Some time back I featured Little Nemo in Slumberland by Winsor McCay. Go ahead and click on this link, I’ll wait.

Towards the bottom I showed some modern homages to the classic strip:

Spongebob:

Sandman:

Since then I have come across a few more.

Here is one from Mutts, which is a modern classic and a strip you should check out, which you can by clicking this link.

Next up are two pages from  Superman Secret Files and Origins #1, which was published in 1998. Stuart Immonen did the honors here:

There are more pages but this gives you the flavor. If you don’t know Little Nemo, you are clearly missing out on a strip that casts a long shadow.
