Bill Ward
Duke, June 1957
Duke was an African-American magazine and Ward was white. Notice how the faces of the men have been slightly altered.

Fun House, June 1979

Fun House,November 1980 Since Fun House was published by one of Magazine Management's many branches (which included Marvel Comics), most likely the last two cartoons were drawn decaded earlier and reprinted several times before this.

Man to Man, April 1952

Cracked #50, 2 of 2

This is the second part of the 50th issue of Cracked from March 1966. The first part is here.

Between my scattershot postings and their repackaging and reprinting, at this point I can't tell if I repost things. If a strip has been here before, the amount of time since it was last posted probably equals the time they waited before reprinting something. For example, this strip by Bill Ward.

Australian Adam, 1 of 2

Here's the first part of the cartoons from an Australian magazine called Adam from December 1963. I have no idea if it has anything to do with the Adam published here, though the cartoons are by Americans. I don't know if they're reprints from magazines here.
