      I thought I would start a new thread to showcase good cartoons or comic strips. Starting with this belter I saw today

      Awesome job on making two completely separate jokes in one picture...

        despite the overwhelming lack of interest, I'll continue to post items I come across in here.

        Have discovered a cartoon called Jucika. This was by a Hungarian cartoonist in the late 1950's. Jucika is an attractive young woman, and the cartoon focuses on satirizing sexism. Part of the fun is working out what is happening in each one, as it is not always immediately apparent

          A lot going on in this Jucika cartoon.

          :::

          When she leaves in the morning, she has the rightmost apartment, but construction is ongoing. By the time she turns up at the end of the day, another apartment has been built, and she mistakenly enters that apartment, causing the new tenant to throw his mistress out of the window, thinking it is his wife at the door

            100%, I needed to check out the spoiler! I don't quite get the dress/painting one either

                Nice! Cheers. I didn't see the subtle tone change in the colour.

                  since it is a scans from newspapers in the 50's and 60's, colours are not the greatest

                                  Loved the Alex storylines - particularly the ones with the Christmas theme.

                                    Alex was great for a small window then just repetitive. Calvin and Hobbs would be my favourite for a long read, and obviously the Far Side is a special. Except that one that I never got. Jim's garage or something. Going to hunt for it now.

                                      Middle School for the Gifted was one that always stood out for me.

                                        Like Bloom County it was 100% perfect for its time. Loved Opus.

                                            @gt12 One of my all time favourites. I am neither confirming nor denying that I have done that.

                                            I have done that. Ferry flight with just cabin crew on board.
