Prince Valiant Flick

I believe I had heard something about a Prince Valiant movie being filmed
by a foreign studio a few months ago. If you check out Deja News you might
be able to find references to it, as I think I read about it in one of the
rec.arts.movies groups. If memory serves, the person who posted the message
did not think too highly of it, but I haven’t seen it, so I don’t know. The
old Prince Valiant flick isn’t bad, though.

Whatever became of JACK MOORE?

Does anybody know the whereabouts of cartoonist Jack Moore, who drew the comic
 strip "Kelly" in the early 1970s?

Thanks,

Jump Start: A Coincidence Of Munchkins

=o= Last Sunday’s "Jump Start" depicted an actor who’d played
one of the Munchkins in _The_Wizard_of_Oz_.  His name was
Jerry Maren.

=o= Just yesterday, a real-life actor who’d played one of the
Munchkins in _The_Wizard_of_Oz_ was injured in a car accident.
His name is Meinhardt Raabe.

=o= Weird coincidence.
    <_Jym_>

P.S.:  The strip will show up this Sunday (one week delay)
at http://www.unitedmedia.com/comics/jumpstart/ — the
Jump Start web site.

I would suggest as a first step to search deja news for the name of this
newsgroup and the word dondi, which is a most favorite for some and a least
favorite for others, but is well remembered and has been discussed. And if
you want triviality, you came to the right place… :)

"Asscussion" in 23 Oct "Blondie"

I think "escutcheon" was the word intended.

Maybe the writer has been sitting too long.

Re: Popeye questions

>>Bobby London got booted off of Popeye some time ago, unfortunately.  I

don’t think there are any other collections of his version of the strip.<<

Not in book form, but magazines like Comics Revue and Comics Express collected
 the London years. London got thrown off when he tried to parody
 anti-abortionists using a contrived "Baby Bluto" doll plot device.
