Our mediocre epic of Cheese – (or would that be, Cheesy Epic?) continues, as the “Kid with no name” returns… Will this mark a change in our dramatis personae’s fortunes, or could it be just another pointless diversion??
While, coming next time, it’s a Lights – Action – Stumbles… Our all Singing – All Dancing B&K Musical Muck-Up, as the gang flat foots it into Music Hall Mundanity!
I hadn’t thought about it, but guess there is a resemblance… I admit to reading the Dondi newspaper strip as a kid – not because I really enjoyed it, I just read everything on the Comics page, even strips I didn’t like, such as “Mary Worth” an’ “Rex Morgan MD” *Choke!* I must’ve been a glutton for punishment!!
There were a lot of good strips… Whoever had designed the Comics page template for our local paper had put Li’l Abner directly under Dick Tracy – so whenever there was a Fearless Fosdick story running in the dailies it would be right under Tracy… I didn’t actually think about it till decades later, but I wonder if that was intentional? It seems a rather wonderfully subversive thing to do…
One thing I recall about vacations in Atlantic City is that the Sunday paper down there had different comics, which struck me as an interesting change of pace… 🙂
Obviously, Katz has an encyclopedic obsession with Food… a bit more precise and practical than Bunz’s obsession with Planetary Destruction… Wurra wurra, with either of them ever be able to attain their cherished goals?
It just seems as though most of the characters that Bunz and Katz meet are creeps that probably deserve worse than what they get, but the kid here seems picked on. It seems a bit unfair of B&K.

I was kinda wondering what ever happened to Dondi.

Yeah, like “Rivets” or “Fred Basset” or “Penny” or…come to think of it, MOST of the comics at the time. Heh.

Fearless Fosdick is my ideal!
Or is that Eric von Zipper?

Getting ideas for your future career at that time?
After all the times that Bunz and Katz have cheated or robbed that poor Kid, he must be nuts to still have anything to do with them!
Well, obviously he’s a good-hearted little guy, who realizes just how clueless these two are…
