Prime Time HB Cartoons: The Flintstones Jonny Quest Top Cat The Jetsons Where's Huddles?Syndicated HB-cartoons: Huckleberry Hound Show Quick Draw Mcgraw Show Yogi Bear Show Magilla Gorilla Show Peter Potamus Show Sinbad Jr Rocky & Bullwinkle debuted on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.
You left one off of the prime time list. Short-lived and forgettable, I know, but it did spawn three issues of its own comic title. Fixed it for ya in red. There was also Wait Till Your Father Gets Home, which was syndicated, but I think usually ran in "prime access" time 7:30-8:00.

Icct made a joke about "no Stan bashing" in the Zoom meetings. And I get that we have more fun things to discuss. But would it be worthwhile to have a thread about the controversies surrounding Stan's creator claims? Especially in light of all the recent scholarship in comics' circles. Or is it just too contentious a subject for our congenial board? I feel there’s a risk that that particular topic could be contentious, but that concern of mine is outweighed by the fact that such a thread probably should exist here, and I trust in people’s maturity over time. I agree, and would love to see it, but I think the mods may have to keep a tight leash on it. I've seen more than one FB group go off the rails from this topic.
On the other hand, I know of another group pretty much devoted to Stan-bashing to the point even I feel bad for the guy!

And I finally got the very last Spire Archie comic I needed to complete all 19. This was extremely hard to get in high grade but we got one.... Now that you have all the Spires, see if you can find all four of the Logos comics from the 70s. I've never seen two of the four, and my father worked for Logos. www.comix35.org/ChristianComicsInternational.org/series_logos.htmlWas that associated w/ the Logos stores (which, around here anyway, were christian bookstores usually near college campuses)?

Every time I see Drucker or Marie Severin artwork in serious titles, I keep thinking where's the punchline. I'm reminded of the time Fred Hembeck drew a Spider-Man story for Marvel's infamous Assistant Editor's Month, but the thing is the story, while using Fred's distinct artwork, was 100% serious (aside from the usual quips from Spidey). In one of Hembeck's 80s collections, he shows a few tryout pages he did when he was trying to break in as a "regular" artist, and , unfortunately, they're some of the funniest stuff in the book. But I'm glad he was able to carve a niche for himself and develop a distinctive, attractive style. Always love his stuff. (A couple of friends and I commissioned an FF cover recreation from his for another friend's 50th birthday.)

Re-reading some of the Mad parodies of superhero films, I would have loved to have seen Mort Drucker do the art for an actual Superman or Batman comic. Even though his art was based off of the movie versions of the characters, he still did excellent renderings of them. Here's an example of Drucker working "straight" at DC in the fifties...
