Tip Top Comics #65

Tip Top Comics started out reprinting most of the strips from United Features Syndicate but eventually used fewer and fewer as their page count reduced over time. This issue, their 65th, is from September 1941.

One of their main attractions was The Katzenjammer Kids

Fritzi Ritz and Phil Fumble were pre-Nancy strips by Ernie Bushmiller

Another recurring feature was reprints of Al Capp's Li'l Abner

Zany #3, 2 of 4

Continued from Monday.

Parody of Archie

Mad's parody of Archie also ended with him in jail. Also note the caricature of Jack Webb is also based on Bill Elder's caricature.





More parodies of the comics with this parody of Katzenjammer Kids. “Katzenjammer” means hangover in German.



Now a parody of Buck Rogers in the 25th Century


Before supermarket tabloids and shows like TMZ there was Walter Winchell or Louella Parsons.



Another parody of Milton Caniff's Steve Canyon.
