BANANA SPLITS CLUB - 1969 ADVERTISEMENT
This is the inside front cover of Hanna-Barbera's HI-ADVENTURE HEROES #1, published by Gold Key in 1969. I've always been a fan of the BANANA SPLITS, which were a co-creation by Hanna-Barbera and Sid & Marty Krofft.

YOGI BEAR & THE BEATLES - 1965 COMIC STRIP
I love the BEATLES reference in this 1965 YOGI BEAR Sunday comic strip! We all know this strip was not written and illustrated by BILL HANNA and JOE BARBERA. I don't know who wrote it, but it looks like the art may have been done by DICK BICKENBACH or HARVEY EISENBERG. Anyone know for sure? I have quite a few of these YOGI BEAR strips in my Hanna-Barbera files for future postings. Keep checking back!

Thanks for the info, Chris!
De Betty Boop-arum
Nuntio vobis habemus summam betty boop-arum!!
This is a post I was working on from months. I've included shots from all the risquè moments in the Betty Boop cartoons. It is unbelievable how many times the underwear of this "little miss" is shown. It seems hardly plausible that she lost her top tens of times revealing her bra. Her "cute legs and miscellaneous" are often shown to the audience and even what kids should not allowed to see pops out frequently. Did you ever dare to count how many gags are built around her garter belt? And almost every character in her cartoons plans to woo (the good guys) or rape (the villains) her.
I've tried to highlight all these moments from all the shorts in which she appears, including the times she has canine of feline forms. I couldn't locate a copy of "Accordion Joe" (which seems unfindable) though. If anyone got a copy (hardly possible) please contact me.
Anyway here you have a visual compendium of the these classic Boop moments, filled with sexuality and pre-Code bravery. Among the most shocking are the shots of her very first cartoon, "Dizzy Dishes".
See Youse,
Andrea
