50Cent #II (1st print)

Cool set. There are 2 for each year, over and under the counter. If you compare the under the counter from the 60s to the 70 over and then to the 70s under you see a great change. I picked mine up for about $30 each from abe.com

But it seems to me that CP ran Strawbrick for a while before he started the new strip.
Was it that Blimpworks went under...and CP just ran what was left of Strawbrick (not really caring that it started up in the middle of the continuity, since there was enough nakedness in it to satisfy CP readers even if the beginning of the story ws missing)...and then Camile began after the last of Strawbrick ran in CP?
     I don't know any more...I forget all this stuff.  But I have a vague memory of having a file somewhere of Strawbricks on the pink newsprint that CP was printed on.

CP got really crazy a little later.  Headlines like "24 hour enema turns black girl white" and "Lesbian Air Force attacks Chilicothe, Ohio".... this is the golden age of Candid Press.  When the stories were completely made up...and when they were completely impossible.  Yet people would write in letters..."I have relatives in Chilicothe, Ohio!  Why is the  mass media censoring this story?"

What makes you think the letters were real?

Slabbing Undergrounds is sacrilege.

The phrase "Action 1 of the Undergrounds"
makes my skin crawl.
