I took a break from the Billy Bounce project to revamp an archive that I am not sure anyone was clamoring for: The Little Quacks. The strips we had previously posted long, long ago were actually reprints from several years later; we now have the original run, including the missing Christmas strip seen above (I kept the whole page as to not butcher the ribbon). Dipping back into the duck pond has produced some curiosities, such as these two; it makes me wonder how many times these characters have appeared since this short lived run (I’m guessing there are are more to be had). Plus I ran into an earlier series that we’ll be adding sometime soon. Look forward to seeing some more Quacks in the new year!

Here’s a little Christmas present: Louis Wain’s Catville! I’m dedicating this one to my sister who as a young girl used to tell anyone who would listen that she planned to be a “kitty cat” when she grew up. And in spirit, maybe she did. If she leaves a comment I’ll consider it a Christmas miracle…
