Gasoline Alley ( Walt and Skeezix)

This punchline for this gag is so good. Peak comics. Simply peak comics.
Illustration’s by William Wallace Denslow(1856-1915) for his book Denslow’s Mother Goose.He’s probably best known as the illustrator for L.Frank Baum’s “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” .Denslow is such a fascinating artist to me for his time his drawings look pretty modern the limited colors,minimalist backgrounds, bold choices like just having a shape as a background,and his cartoonish thick outlined designs are pretty graphically ahead in kids book illustration for the early 1900s shame he didn’t illustrate the other Oz books don’t get me wrong I love John R Neil but Denslows art just has a odd charm to it I want to see in the other Oz books.

I JUST FINISHED DAIMA!!!
Finishing it made me sad all over again for Toriyama's death. You can tell this was his work in a way that could never be done without him. Every bit of Dragon Ball crap written without him being the lead writer and decision maker has been inferior because it forgets the silly comedic roots and it has no love of weak side characters. Only Toriyama, not any of the people who try to follow in his footsteps for this poor IP, would have a joke character end up essentially the winner and hero of the whole story.
Daima was everything Toriyama's work has always been. A loving, silly short story that is more focused on being entertaining than being cool. Every single person I have ever seen complain about that anime did not understand why Dragon Ball ever got big in the first place.
