Funny Pages v. 2 #4

A mini-history lesson for you, courtesy of gag filler, where one might not expect to find lessons. It's worth noting, I think, that most Americans in 1937 had no idea that Japan was committing war atrocities in China -- hence, the sandwich board accusing them of being "unfair".

Note that, in comics, bullets cannot shoot through doors, or anything used as cover.

I'm not sure what I should do with the fantasy strip Abdallah. It's definitely an adventure strip, and normally any adventure strip is fair game for H&H treatment, but I don't know...it's also so D&D-like, that it might wind up skewing our results.

Here, Abdallah fights a gigantic snake. It has come up before on this blog that H&H needs a snake bigger than a giant snake.  I'm not sure what to make of the "gigantic monster", though. Is it a dragon...?

Here we see bandits again, but this time they are refreshingly not Mexican bandits.
