It's the weekend and i'm in the mood for some Funnies. So, let's jump back to Tom Mix and the Straight Shooters, and to the same pic we used while talking about Jane -
On the bottom left, we've got Amos Q. Snood. As one might guess from the name, (and the expression on his face) he provided a heapin' helpin' of comedy relief for the crew.
Like Jane, he received an ongoing strip in Tom Mix Comics (and later Tom Mix Commandos) - four pages every issue with The Fumble Family. And, as with Jane, we're going to go ahead and break it into two sets and run them all. As you might suspect with a family name like Fumble, it leans heavily into slapstick comedy. That sounds like the kind of funnies we could use this weekend.
As with Jane (again), the strip is written by Stan Schendel. Artwork comes from one of the old Golden Age greats - Charles Biro.
And now we're all set for some Sunday Morning Funnies with part two.
