Gene's solution to prevent the theft of the Lakeview Park
Easter Basket's eggs: hide a cop inside one |
Let's end the week with a few laughs. Here are all five of Gene Patrick's "The Passing Scene" comic strips that ran in the
Journal back in April 1966. Enjoy!
The April 2nd edition humorously addressed a late March 1966 UFO sighting in Lorain.
The April 9th strip mentioned sonic booms – something that I remember from being a kid, as well as something that we experienced a few weeks ago.
The April 16th comic contains Gene's hilarious Lakeview Park Easter Basket cartoon.
The April 23nd edition gave Gene the opportunity to do a nice rendering of Hotel Antlers.
And finally, the April 30th strip foreshadowed the eventual replacement of Lorain City Hall and includes a cameo appearance by Batman and Robin.
The defensive driving comic is pretty ironic. Today's cars do come equipped with pillows (airbags) all over the place.
