PART TWELVE Of KIRBY 'KOCK-UPS' - "SHUT THAT DOOR!"

Take a look at the above page.  Study it for a moment.  Can you see what's wrong with it?  "But wait a minute!" you cry.  "The page is pencilled by JAY GAVIN (a pseudonym of WERNER ROTH), not JACK KIRBY!"  Very true, but Jack laid out the page for Jay/Werner to follow, so the error is his, not Werner's.  And just what is the 'error'?  Well, in the first three panels, the front door opens outwards (which is wrong), whereas in the second last panel it opens inwards (which is right).  "Couldn't it open both ways?" you ask.  Never seen a front door of a mansion or house that does, have you?  Thought not.  That's what you call a 'kock-up' as sure as eggs is eggs.

BEARS Of The DAY - YOGI & BOO-BOO...

Two great buddies together - YOGI BEAR

and BOO-BOO.  (Hasn't the little one sprouted

up?)  These two are real bears you know, and not

a couple of fellas dressed up.  Nothing but the 'real

deal' on this here blog.  (And just in case you were

wondering, their relationship is purely platonic.)

 (Nurse, is it time for my medicine yet?)

(BOND) BABE Of The DAY - JULIE EGE...

I once worked with a woman who really

fancied herself.  She thought every man who

laid eyes on her wanted to... well, I'm sure you

can imagine.  (Yes, she really was that deluded.)

However, compared to JULIE EGE, she was a

navvy.  She even spoke like one too.  Ah, thank

goodness for real, ladylike women like Julie.

  Down with ladettes - that's what I say!
