Rip Kirby-Private Dick

Rip Kirby was a comic strip featuring an eponymous character, created by Alex Raymond in 1946.
After World War II, Raymond did not return to work on any of his previous successful comic strips (Flash Gordon, Jungle Jim, Secret Agent X-9) but instead began work on a new strip starring an ex-marine private detective named Rip Kirby, based on the suggestion by Ward Greene that Raymond try a "detective-type" strip. The daily strip was first published on March 4, 1946. The strip enjoyed enormous success and Raymond received the Reuben Award in 1949.

Roots Of Gumby

In 1980 I attended a Gumby & Pokey film festival at the Rialto Theater in Pasadena, hosted by Gumby creator Art Clokey. It was fantastic to see these classic claymation episodes on the big screen, but what really made an impact on me was Mr. Clokey’s prototype pre Gumby film entitled Gumbasia. This crazy pseudo-psychodelic spectacle was too cool for words, and I was psyched to find that someone has posted it on YouTube. Enjoy!
