Before we get to our post, here is a short “programming note.” Fans of the Yogi weekend comics we’ve been posting here will be pleased to note we will be able to carry on for another month, though the post for September will be incomplete. However, we aren’t so lucky with the Flintstones. This post consists of comics from three difference sources and will be our last.
For some reason, Fred has a “Mr. Boulder” as a boss. The comics didn’t necessary follow what was happening on the TV show; witness the later development of Pebbles and Dino “talking” in the comics via thought-balloons.
Unless she’s hiding in the missing first row of the first three comics, Betty Rubble is absent again. Maybe she confined herself to the daily comics. Or perhaps she’s gone on a visit to Petticoat Junction.
The gag set-up in the third cartoon is my favourite. A shame the TV set isn’t tuned in to Yogi Bear again this month. The last one is a marvel of filling space and making the characters read. I’ll bet it stands out more in colour.
