And many insiders do not know why we call comic books "comics" even though lots of them are not at all funny.Robert C. Harvey, cartoonist and a veteran comics critic, author of several histories of comics and biographies of cartoonists, tells forgotten stories of a dozen now obscure but once famous cartoonists and their creations.

Which is Joe? What was the big secret about E. Simms Campbell? Who was Funnyman? And why? And some of the pictures are rare, too. Hugh Hefner's cartoons, Kin Hubbard's illustrations for Short Furrows, Betty Swords' pictures for the Male Chauvinist Pig Calendar of 1974, the Far East pin-up cartoon character Babysan, illustrations for Popo and Fifina, and Red Ryder's last bow"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aComic books, strips, etc$xHistory and criticism 606 $aCartoonists$zUnited States 606 $aCartooning$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aComic books, strips, etc.$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aCartoonists 615 0$aCartooning 676 $a741.5/973 700 $aHarvey$b Robert C.$018344 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463780903321 996 $aInsider histories of cartooning$92469322 997 $aUNINA
