Zip - POW!


A wonderful claymation Krazy Kat Kartoon made by Banana Park.
Thanks to Sofia for showing me this yesterday.
I think Geo. Herriman would have been proud of what they did with Krazy and Ignatz

And speaking of the Kat don't miss the new Krazy & Ignatz book from Fantagraphics! It's filled with loads of extra bonus material. A pleasure for the eye and a delightful, weird piece of comic art.

Wonderful! Simply wonderful! It captures the epithome of the comic spot on! These british fellows are sure crafty.. ;-)

I tried to find out what the animation is for.. or when and in what context it was made, but came u with zilch. (not Zilch or "D.T." of Lucky Luke fame, but nada, zip, zilch.)

I did however find a lot of original 1910s silent cartoons over at youtube... Watchable, but - of course - not nearly close to the masterpiece comic.
