Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard
Calvin and Hobbes by Bill WattersonAbout Broom Hilda
Living in an enchanted forest with surrealistic landscapes, the engaging characters of Broom Hilda happily have no connection with reality. Other comic characters are extensions or distortions of reality, but Broom Hilda deals in pure fantasy, making the strip bewitchingly unique. Here in the forest, the inhabitants maintain a standard of madness where total irrelevance is the only relevancy. The strip is simply a loony-bin where what’s said and done often makes no sense whatsoever, much to the joy of its millions of fans.

Talking comic strips - as in animated cartoons? Mickey just turned 80.

I saw two Lon Chaney silent classics on TCM the other night: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA and THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME.
Silent movies are a fascinating art.

margueritem: no, I’m afraid I never had the pleasure of seeing NOSFERATU. I did see THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI, though. Great film!
JPuzzleWhiz: PLANE CRAZY and GALLOPING GAUCHO were made in 1926, but were held for release until after STEAMBOAT WILLIE in 1928. Perhaps, technically, that makes Mickey 82.
