It Ain't Easy

Saturday Leftover Day. Roy Crane's Wash Tubbs and Captain Easy was a very influential strip, because if the ease with with it combined simple stylized storytelling with esciting characters and story lines. It has been reprinted several times and no comic fan or historian should be without those. But before Captain Easy joined Washing Tubbs the third fot their adventures, Roy Crane and his rich boy character had plenty of exciting trips themselves.

Four Bears

Monday Cartoon Day.

Even before Captain Easy joined him, Wash Tubbs by Roy Crane was a pretty interesting strip. He did not have his own Sunday strip until Easy got his own in 1933. Before that, he had a topper strip over The Willets. I never saw many of those, but here is how Crane filled that spot in the later months of 1932. With a series of 'games' introsuced by Washington Tubbs the Second.
