Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles | 
Getting back into this weird, dark, wonderful comic book.
RamsFan1963 I really liked the artwork on this, but I found the story too preachy and heavy handed. 3y
Getting back into this weird, dark, wonderful comic book.
pickMark Russell is unbelievable. Just like his take on the Flintstones, this is a brilliant political satire. This is a look at what it means to be an American set against a cold war McCarthy backdrop. In the words of S.P., “There‘s no such thing as a free country without it‘s subversives, radicals and undesirables.”
pickI enjoyed this reimagining of an old Hanna Barbera character. Despite the somewhat heavy handed delivery of the message and fudging around with historical accuracy, this comic is still a pretty solid pick for me.
so-soDifferent enough to be interesting, but a bit heavy handed with its message. Too preachy to be very entertaining.

Book mail is the greatest! A little sampling of this year‘s Graphic Novel Group picks! #bookclubpicks #tbr #graphicnovels
pickI enjoyed this comic a lot, I liked the depth given to the gay cartoon icon, though I did struggle at first with the realistic art style. My only disappointment was discovering in the endnotes that the historical information wasn‘t as accurate as I had thought - people/places/events had been moved in time or playing a different role for a better story. I can see why they did it and it didn‘t detract from my enjoyment. Exitus sacrna sinistram.

pickA smart, funny & touching mashup of Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters with real life writers Tennessee Williams & William Faulkner, plus NYC 1950s gay scene & the American Cold War Communism scare. Lots of delightful pop culture references in the artwork & dialogue. Heavens to Murgatroyd! I really enjoyed this. #LGBT #comics
It‘s only page 2 and already I‘m loving the quippy humour. (“Pornography for PhDs”!!)
This is one fun mashup. The Red Scare, LGBTQ history, theater luminaries, and cartoon characters all in one place. Heavens to murgatroyd!
