The Saturday Comics: Mutts (2012)

I checked in with Mutts around this time last year but honestly, I read it all the time. It is just that good. The reason I spotlighted them last year is that, to tie in with the big San Diego Comic Con, it runs a week of superhero strips. Here is this years’ crop. Enjoy.


“Mister Miracle?” Thank you Patrick McDonnell! Never expected to see him outside of an obscure DC comic.

The Saturday Comics: More Little Nemo Homages

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

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.
