It All Started With This Purple Footed Ostrich Roller-Skating Down The Old Kent Road...

Whatdyaknow? I actually know what day it is today. So let's have some Sunday Morning Funnies. Since it's been a little while since they were monkeying around here, our stars today are The Monkees! (Yeah, i'm excited)

Most of today's funnies come from The Monkees' 1967 & 1969 UK Annuals, with one little bonus exception at the end...


Sometimes they liked to work with double page spreads for the stories. Those often had border art added to help fit the page format of the annuals. I've trimmed that to fit the page format of the blog. Well - sort of fit. They're big images, so they fits when you clicks...




See it, not saying it.

In one of the early posts on the boys, i ran a couple of panels from a story in which they added a robot to the band. Here's the full story from which those panels came: Volt's Concerto In DC Minor -


For our promised Bonus - more robot fun, this time from Steve Skeates and Jim Aparo -


Don't look so surprised. I did mention that Aparo did multiple Monkees comics last time i ran one. I know of at least one more...

The Monkees Meet The Beezles

In case you wandered in due to a misundertaking* about the title of this post, we already looked at when The Monkees met The Beatles.

Back in the days before ancient mariners returning from the far east gave out Gremlins, they tried Beezles. And Peter, of course, brought one home...


Perhaps not surprisingly, Beezles were not the only thing Peter brought home...


And so it went...
