The oppressed peoples and nations must not pin their hopes for liberation on the "sensibleness" of imperialism and its lackeys. They will only triumph by strengthening their unity and persevering in their struggle.

The movie poster for Are You Being Served? The Film, with the main cast done in caricature style by Frank Langford. He bestowed Wendy Richard with an absolutely stellar rack.

What, don't you enjoy cinema?

Gordo should be in the hands of a Mexican-American cartoonist. Hector D. Cantú probably has the strongest claim (having inserted a very passable Gordo into a run of Baldo earlier), though I can only dream of Jaime Hernandez taking a shot at it.

I want to take over a legacy comic strip. Crock, maybe. Boner's Ark. I'm not sure what's available.

Aren't they great? Yeah, it's Guardineer from the Mouthpiece feature in Police Comics.

It's interesting to have UNIT involved without any of its famous faces in it, sort of alienating in an enjoyable way.

Sarah Jane Smith wearing a jedi quilt I think.
Sarah Jane looking marvelous in all the shades of brown.

Smashing fit on Sarah Jane, too.

Sarah Jane and The Doctor running away from a shrub Sylvia Coleridge as Amelia Ducat in Seeds of Doom, the world's leading flower artist and a former artillery gunner I think. Tony Beckley as Harrison Chase in Seeds of Doom, getting worked up about a pumpkin

Glad to have been rewatching Seeds of Doom over the last couple of nights. I didn't dig it as a young'un but I find that it has enjoyable one-off characters that really speak to my more refined, mature tastes: The flamboyant old country marm and an effete criminal who's horny for squash.

Whenever I dig up a lesser-known cartoonist or character, there's always someone who says "I thought everybody who mattered was already familiar with this one." Yes, and that's why I don't write for "everybody who matters."

Caption: Immediately, Friel's gang opens fire, which the masked man returns with interest!
Thug: Get him! Kill the Mouthpiece!
While the Mouthpiece and the thugs trade gunfire, the victim slips through the cut in the taxidermized shark's abdomen, as if passing through fog.

Now this is action! A gunfight on a schooner, a woman slipping out of a shark, it's everything you could ask for!

The Mouthpiece, Quality Comics masked detective character, discovers a human trafficking ring which hides women inside of sharks.

An absolutely unhinged sequence, god bless Golden Age comics.

Frustrating amount of ambient music manages to record a musician's first-time introduction to the piano, I find.

A frame from the Columbo episode Any Old Port In A Storm featuring the assorted members of Adrian Cassini's wine-tasting club mobbing a lady piano player in a first class airplane cabin. The title "WINE SQUAD!" is overlaid.

You're either part of Wine Squad! fandom or you're out in the cold.
