And then of course, in every Newsletter I present the Super-Fun-Pak Comix installment that featured the comics recently run on the GoComics Super-Fun-Pak Comix page.
By an incredible coincidence, last week’s page featured comics from this installment (from 2012), which includes a reference to…
Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises!
SUPER-FUN-PAK CONFLUENCE!

Speaking of Super-Fun-Pak Comix, The 2020 book The Super-Fun-Pak Comix Reader quickly sold out, and the only copies still for sale are the few in a pile in my daughter’s bedroom, sold only for collector’s prices.
If you missed out on that, don’t miss out on the two new Tom the Dancing Bug books that have just busted through the Supply Chain, and that I’m now busy signing, sketching and sending!
Make me busier! (Ordering info below.)
