Eek The Man

Saturday Leftover Day.

I have shared many an episode of Howie Schneider's The Circis of P.T. Bimbo. Gis most famous and longer running strip was Eek and Meek, which started out as a strof philosophical mice but ended up being about actual human beings. Because they were usually only sitting around and talking or walking around and talking, it doesn't show Schneider's visual abillities as well as Bimbo. He was like Bill Watterson, who combined slapstick and philosophy in one strip. Schneider spread it over two. Except for once in a while. Here are two remarkable Eek and Meek strips, from when they had just been changed into human beings (like the mice in the Cincerella story).

E&M is one of my favorite strips. Please post more.

I have not scanned many. I will be selling a lot of comic book sized sections that have E&M in tabloid format on them. I may even have shown a couple of those here, so please follow the link.
