MabusIncarnate 05/03/23 11:16:16 PM #204:	I'm on the TMNT run that released in 2011 it looks like, not sure if this is a colored version of the original or if it's newer. Had a few days off work, don't read much when i'm off but back to it tonight. Gonna get through another volume or two of Saga, and explore a bit more on the app for something else, maybe Fables. --- "They speak of progress, in red, white and blue.

MabusIncarnate 05/05/23 3:57:43 AM #207:	Unfortunately Saga vol 3 was the last free one on the app, so I'm probably just gonna buy the rest. I found the original TMNT black and white series that I think I'm gonna try. Is Fables part of that Wolf Among Us game?

Juhanor 05/05/23 10:27:07 PM #211:	ImAMarvel posted... Good work!! I'm glad :D cuh posted... I am indeed familiar with this topic :) Comics Kingdom is legit, it's the official King Features Syndicate website (the big name in strip publishing, going back to early 1900s--if you've heard of a comic strip, its a pretty safe bet that it ran under KFS). I've never subscribed to them personally but ~~With the caveat that strips, especially early ones, are oftentimes incomplete due to the ephemeral matter upon which they were printed~~ I think you might be cleared to subscribe. Just doing some estimates: The Little King ran for 45 years Started June 7 1930 in The New Yorker, switched to King Features Syndicate on September 9 1934, ran until July 20 1975 Since it was a Sunday comic, we can compare the 2235 strips Comics Kingdom has to the number of Sundays between 1930-1975 and 1934-1975: 2355 for the first set, 2133 for the second. Four possible explanations for the discrepancy: 1. They have the whole 1930-1975 run but are missing 120 strips 2. They have the whole 1930-1975 run and the missing 120 are just holiday/vacation days 3. They have the whole 1934-1975 run and the extra 102 are repeats 4. My math is bad Most likely I'd guess at number 2 (or 4 lol). It does look like they have a 30 day trial for free, so maybe give it a go and see what's what? Alternative option for the early strips would be to track down 1930-1934 of the New Yorker, maybe Internet Archive has em... <cite>Juhanor posted [p:973291113] in Reading Th...

Following up, I did some sleuthing for the early New Yorker mags and found the New York Public Library has access to their digital archive. Signed up for a digital card, checked out the June 7th magazine and sure enough, The Little King was on page 14--if the earliest one in the Comics Kingdom archive looks like this: ~~https://i.vgy.me/XoIqz8.png~~ Then that'd favor point 2 above. Another favor: I leafed through the rest of June 1930's issues and so far we can knock 2355 down to 2352, there hasn't been a second strip yet. <cite>Juhanor posted [p:973291628] in Reading Th...

Marvel app you don't have to download comics to read them, comix you do and it throttled my tablet hard drive with 100 gigs because I had no idea they were being stored. Only fix is to uninstall and reinstall. Wish there was one that functioned like the Marvel one, but had DC, Marvel, Image and others.

Finished the first 12 issues, some thoughts so far: Ennis has this way of pinwheeling between edgy, dark and juvenile...and then he does these immaculate, meaningful scenes with his cast of lowlives and holier than thous. He really nails "man," the good, bad and everything in between. Dillon, I'm usually not a fan of his art but I think Hollingsworth on colors really evened it out. Plot is interesting so far, although I don't think it's reached Hitman level yet in terms of impact (which IMO was already a 10/10 by the close of its first year). On that note Tommy from Hitman pulls a ton from Jesse and Cassidy, its cool seeing his "bloodline" in action. Looking forward to starting the next year tomorrow. <cite>Juhanor posted [p:973670615] in Reading Th...
