KOSHER COMICS 1/3

This comic was published by Parallax, which also published some comics about the LBJ administration. I printed a few pages from “Bobman and Teddy” last year but will eventually do it again in its entirety. This is full of the ethnic humor through Mad-Libs approach prevalent throughout the sixties, where it was typical of comedians of any media (or race) to attain laughs just by mentioning a Jewish/NYC cliché.

I'll post something from this era making fun of straight white Christians as long as it's not a response to something else. Novelty books from the 80s like “The WASP's Cookbook” or whatever don't really count. While we're on the subject (and this has nothing to do with the comic), I just wanted to say that when someone says “I'm offended because I'm [x]” implies “It's okay to make fun of them, but not me”.

The Loan Arranger and other stuff

I thought I'd post the remainder of the issues of GOOSE I have xeroxes of. These are from issues 2 and 3 in 1976 or so and done anonymously.

It was kind of like MAD except dirty. I think it was people who worked on magazines like CRAZY and SICK letting off steam.






Normally I don't appreciate self-parody. Sometimes it can be funny, I just don't like the idea of it. This is sort of interesting though. Here's a parody of THEY'LL DO IT EVERY TIME by Al Scaduto, the artist of that strip. I picture him thinking of the strip "the way I'd really like to do it".




Now that you're done with that, please take our survey.
