The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

[hero4hire]

The first comicbooks were a promotional collection of 1898 comic strips Yellow Kid and Mutt & Jeff. First "original" art for a comicbook format was something like 1913 as a newpaper flyer promo.

I am something of a "sequential art" afficiado myself.

Ally Sloper's Half Holiday first published on May 3rd 1884 probably has the strongest claim for 1st comicbook.

Since he put it in his sig.

It's here:

Oh, huh, not sure if I didn't notice it, or it's just been so long I didn't even think about it. Pretty it's the latter option.

Posted a few more creatures on my collections and mutations. Otherwise its time for me to go.

You have a collection of creatures and mutations? Where at?

 

[Dog Moon]

I don't know if I'll be online on Christmas so I'll go ahead and wish you all a Merry Christmas. I've missed all of my friends here.

Merry Christmas right back atcha.

So of course I thought, hey maybe I'll look in your sig and see if it's there since I was just responding previously to the post about the shroom's sig and lo and behold! there it was.

Unless you've tried it and now feel alienated out of out it due to what others have said about you. :\

It's mellowed a bit more, but to each his own. It does take a thicker skin there.

Shh, you weren't supposed to know...

So have I.

Where is the 'shroom?

Here I am, here I am!

Me and Myc go way back.

He has had some prolonged absences from online activity.

You never know when he can make it down the big hill!

True enough on both accounts....

He was online elsewhere earlier today, so he's around...

I'm here, I'm here!

Hello Aeson. Haven't seen you in a awhile.

I agree where is the shroom? I sent him a PM over on CM and he hasn't responded. It happens. He is probably busy doing....I don't know....monk things.

Monk things ... got THAT right. :\

Great, another hiveminder lost to CM.

Not quite ... I am not ALL that active over at CM .... But my activity over there IS rather ... err ... hivemind'ish.

Wait, the Shroom is a Monk? I didn't realize that. Since when?

Since 1988....

He has been a monk since he was a mere air bourne spore

Close enough, close enough.

Close to 20 years now. I knew him before he went to the Monastary.

ALSO very true.

He spends more time on other boards too.

Nothing wrong with CM though, as it's like a mostly unmoderated hivemind.

Hmm ... never thought about it like that. I guess so ....

Got that right. :\

Shh, you weren't supposed to know...

Know? What?

Flurry of posts - old style!

neat. The oldest i knew of was a promo reprinted in a Chicago newspaper and with some sort of soap. Being 1884- what was it- political cartoons? I don't recall Yellow Kid or Nemo being that far back. Curious is all.
