Quantity 2578: …and the 2021 Thanksgiving Turkey Award goes to…

It is that day.  I save on my tuxedo and stand on the dais declaring the award to my readers. The Thanksgiving Turkey Award has been given yearly since the inception of this blog, moreover for one Thanksgiving (and perchance any person within the market gave thanks that I did not masks it that Three hundred and sixty five days). The Award, as I in most cases bid at present, is judged and given by me and is as much as my need on my own. This Three hundred and sixty five days I of course comprise broken one tradition, which is to find a tale (singular) to fresh, in its keep I’m giving two tales. Both are by the inimitable Fletcher Hanks. Hanks purchased the Award remaining Three hundred and sixty five days, also, which makes him the valuable repeater in our yearly tradition.

With Hanks it is quite too straightforward, however stacked up towards diversified comedian book creators from the early years of the comedian books, he used to be then an popular, and silent lives in our hearts as the man whose creations, artwork, dialogue, and heaps others., are uncommon.

The episodes of “Plight Smith” and “Stardust” by Hanks had been published within the identical be troubled of Not possible Comics #3 (1939].
