Most of the "Write Your Own Comic" pages did not feature Sugar & Spike. I'm not sure they would be used in a S&S Archives any more than Super Turtle fillers would be used in a Silver Age Superman Archive. They were by Mayer; however, so there is that justification.

posted April 17, 2003 05:19 PM            

Naturally, some of the individual stories are familiar to me from the DC Digest issues and last year's facimile. I would gladly pay $200 to fill the gap between issue 1 and 33.

If this ever takes off can we have a Three Mousketeers done in one? At lest I have the 70's reprint series of that stuff..

I started the S&S map since I noticed neither of you had made one yet. If I can find adequate info for other humor strips, I'll make maps of those, too. Unless someone beats me to it.

I tried following your format, Owen. If there's something I'm missing or if I'm doing something that doesn't make it easy for you to copy and paste the material, let me know, and I'll adjust.

Thanks. You did a great job. The only thing I would add is a total page count for each issue.

I don't think Sugar and Spike will ever be archived. They won't even give them a facsimilie editon. The reprint of #1 was fun, but neither it, nor the millennium editon sold well.

The merits of the strip are debateable, not enough people want it or any of the Sheldon Mayer stuff. I've enjoyed some of the digests, but that must not have done well either.

Personally, I enjoyed Mayer's funny animal stuff more. Sugar and Spike was "Dennis the Menace", there were just two menaces, fun but not archive-worthy.

I honestly think the Red Bee will get an archive, or even a tradepaperback before Sugar and Spike get one.

You mean you haven't heard DC is going to start the Sheldon Mayer Library, beginning with Scribbly and The Red Tornado and continuing with Sugar & Spike to replace The Spirit Archives in 2008? Same 3 volumes a year like The Spirit Archives.

Just kidding!

But a guy can dream, can't he?

But try to find something on Funny Folks? Jeez, you'd swear it was CIA classified or something.

Virtually every DC funny animal character is included on my Who's Whose in The DC Universe web page and 98% of the Golden Age ones have scans attached. I have a handful more that I haven't got around to uploading yet.

Now, who would be the best person at DC to bribe--I mean persuade--in order to see this come about? Mr. Greenberger? Mr. Crain? Mr. Levitz?

Interesting question. I think that discussing series of interest on this board has the potential to attract support to a proposed series. Discussions on this board shaped my opinions to the point that Brave and the Bold #1-24 are now among the archives I would most like to see.

Wayne, a wonderful thought, truly. I've asked David Spurlock over at Vanguard Productions why he doesn't do a good Mayer book like their Swan tome, and he said he wasn't sure he could sell enough to make it worthwhile. I thought about this and realize that Mayer doesn't have the recognition factor others have but I think its a matter of education; once they know, they will understand.

TwoMorrows could probably do a great Shelly book, like their upcoming Murphy Anderson retrospective.
