Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for January 12, 2014

I declare, judge him not, & do-or-die. And top it all off with “disparagus remarks”…Classic!

And the consecutive streak featuring Walt is broken. I was so anxious to see him on Sunday that I stayed up late Saturday to see the comic. Oh, well. Maybe the weeklies will continue with his story.

And you’ve gotta love Rufus talking about “Mr. Jim”!

Say, isn’t that a ‘58 Pontiac in the first panel? And there’s no mistaken for the Caddy in the 3rd panel!

yep…looks like a ‘58 Pontiac Bonneville if i’m not mistaken and a ‘59 caddie….that’s when cars had class

Ya know, I often miss Dick Moore’s subtle characterizations…but Scancarelli is second to no one in his draftsmanship. Still love this comic.

This was good. I enjoyed it very much, but I can’t wait to get back to Walt and his reminisces.

I don’t know if anyone will see this so late on Sunday, but the Tomah, Wisconsin quote is cute. Tomah is the place where Frank King lived much of his life.

Classic vaudeville

Note: Tomah, Wisc., the hometown of Frank King, creator of the strip.

“I was wrong about the Pontiac Bonneville.”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Well Adrian, it takes a big man to admit a mistake on GoComics, but I’ll have to admit Jim led us both down the garden path with that row of lights across the back window. That definitely WAS a trademark of the Chevvy Impala, but them vertical taillights…..eew !>grin<

OBTW, did anyone notice my old ‘82 Mercury Lynx sticking out in the last panel? I got 87,000 miles out that thing at 35 mpg on the road. Better’n today’s struggle-buggies, fershure!
