After looking at the adventures of Tippy Taylor on Fantasy Isle, i was curious to see what else George Loomis had done. I think i wasn't clear in expressing previously that he had written the stories as well as drawing them. So, i had hope of finding more odd tales.
Another dream crushed. After hunting through databases, so far as i can find Loomis only did one more short strip, and then disappeared from the world of comics. Actually, this was published in the gap month between Tippy's appearances in Amazing Mystery Funnies and The Arrow, so he disappeared along with Tippy.
Here's his only other work, from Funny Pages #42 -
Darn.
Now i want more, and there isn't any.
