Not Half Bad

Tuesday Comic Strip Day.

Here's another post that is actually a teaser. I have a larger run of Half-Hitch waiting to be cleaned up. But here are two months from 1970 I prepared earlier. Half-Hitch was a 'second' Sunday strip by Hank Ketcham, based on his cartoon series of the same name from The Saturday Evening Post, actully one of the first things he sold as a cartoonist. It was also not drawn by Ketcham, but by Dick Hodgins Jr. in a style that was at times more Ketchammy than his own work. And since he worked with writers on Dennis the Menace, I am not even sure if he wrote this.
