Comics... Old And New... Do You Still Read Them?

Yes, Charles Schultz is a great cartoonist, the way he depicts those kids. I like Woodstock too but I think the most endearing character for me, is probably Linus, with his blanket he drags around. lol.

I believe Charlie Brown's Mum and Dad are in some of the cartoons, from what I remember, but I won't swear by that.

Yes, there's something about a good comic that makes you pick it up and have a read, isn't there?

Awwwwwwwww, you don't know what you're missing, Wiz!

Thank you for your input. I like books as well of course, but occasionally, I find the need for a chuckle and the Peanuts books are light, amusing reading. They're not all in comic strips, some are little stories, but still enjoyable.

Well, I might have read one or two peanut before.. oh we have dilbert here too. I read a bit of that.:)

There ya go then... you forgot, didn't you? lol

Wow, yes, they would have been more than worth a few rides around the block on your bike now, VMKS.

Annuals fetch quite a bit from those times, too. Rupert, especially and all the old, popular ones, like Dandy and Beano. Yes, the kids of today do miss out on a lot of pleasure with their electronic games and computers but that's progress, I guess. They don't know any different.

They're not to everybody's liking, Lakota. Books are just as good, but I did enjoy the Peanuts books. I used to take them on the bus and train when I wasn't going far, because they could be read quickly.

How cute I dont think they had them when I grew up Peanuts and that came later.
I used to listen to the radio and listen to green hornet,lone ranger and something else on Satudays. Heck I am 67 thats along time and I have seen alot of changes to the world and I always wonder what my grand ma woulld have thought if she had lived

I daresay your grandma wouldn't have had time for thought... she'd have had her nose stuck in a comic! ha ha

No I really dont think so she took care of youth group in the church and then she also wrote for the small town newspaper . She died back in the 50s and I just wonder what she would think of all the technologies that has came out since then

Yes, I wonder. Things progress so much in just a few years, but they're oh so different to the 60s and 70s even.

yes they sure are;-)

Oh, I still enjoy reading them now and again, but they're not the same these days. Thank you for your input, Nejnej, and Brightest Blessings.

Lol... I bet those old comics would have been worth a fortune if they had been in good condition. Probably the newspapers too.

I liked Dennis the Menace. He got up to some cheeky tricks which, incidentally, the boys used to copy! I was more like Minnie the Minx. he he he

Unfortunately they not in very good condition, but it is something worth keeping. Yea, the boys used to copy some of his naughty little ways. Problem was some of the girls did too.haha. I also loved the denise the menace movie that came out.
Cheers

Me too, and shame about the comics.

Wow... you sure read a lot of comics Kampo. Thank you for your input... very interesting.

Noooooooo, no need to feel embarrassed at all. We all still have the kid in us, and besides, we need a bit of a laugh from time to time. Garfield is quite funny too, although I'm not so sure he's modern, and when talking about newspapers, I used to always look for the Andy Capp and Flo cartoons. lol.

Thank you for your input and Brightest Blessings.

Wow, a good hobby to have. They'll probably be worth a fortune someday and you must have piles of them.

Thank you for your input, Webbuff and Brightest Blessings.
