    You let one family of humans in, and before you know it, the whole strip’s nothing but people, people, people.

    He took to it like “a monkey to a fig”. That’s a new one for me.

    Why is Doc Yak a goat and not a yak?

    The amount of rich background detail is surprising. Compare this sample to the Yak/Gump transitional Sunday.

    This work looks Closer in style to the Stanley Link ghosted Chester Gump adventures a decade or two on.

    Is this really what Smith was capable of or was he using assistants this far back????

    (Either way this is an impressive and enjoyable page)
