Wow, keep 'em comin'... I remember "GASOLINE ALLEY" being a regular feature in "mainstream" funny papers (Daily News, etc)... The "PEANUTS" hot roddin' parody is refreshing to see-- It's a shame that Charles Shultz didn't put his Peanuts characters in hot roddin' situations... I really enjoy seeing all this incredible artwork... It's certainly entertaining-- And the artists responsible for this stuff are truly talented folks...

A preview of the good girl art in Senorita Rio 1944 gives you an idea of the other reasons (besides hot rods & car chases) young men bought comics 60 years ago.
