I can't read the handwriting about a "Mickey J____ character" and can't guess the cultural reference, but the Love Diary 36 story "Easy to Love" is about a girl who works as a housemaid for the man she falls in love with.
It isn't completely out of left field, but a syndicated Superman strip sequence is a change of pace. Technically this was published by the syndicate, but DC bought the scripts from Woolfolk. Six tiers, a week's dailies, are paid as six pages (or three times as many panels), and in fact at a slightly higher rate. He continues writing the sequence next month. UPDATE: SangorShop supplied the strips' publication dates.

ReplyDeleteHopefully we'll see that strip story reprinted by IDW in the near future, in their Superman newspaper strip series.
ReplyDeleteThanks, SangorShop; and Lee, I guess we'll see--it looks like they'll have to fill in between the Sundays ending in 1946 and the dailies beginning in 1958.
