Howladay Reruns!

 It's that most wonderful day of the year, and part of the traditions will be seeing your cartoon favorites again, whether it's that Great Pumpkin TV show, or--

Tricks And Treats!

 I hope you don't mind all these seasonal reruns--  I've been a bit busy in Regular Life!  Maybe there's someone peeking in for whom these are new and titillating!

Meanwhile, I hope you get your favorite candy and have happy endings!  Maybe like:

Rejected By Mr. Whale...

 

Halloween 2021: GHOST HUNTERS!!

 

Tricks for Treats!!

May your All Hallows Eve be filled with fun!!

That's The Spirit! Part Two!

What shall we call this bratty little spirit?

A Po-Po-Geist, maybe?

Maybe not.

It's a little known fact that spanking heat makes ectoplasm visible.

It's little known because I made it up.

But if several of us repeat it often enough, it becomes established fact.

Tomorrow you'll see a pervy little cartoon ghost avenging his pretty little playmate!

Well, if you look here, you will.

"Listen to them-- squealing in the night! What music they make!"

That's a deliberate misquote, but apropos, as you shall see.

In Bram Stoker's novel, and most movie versions of "Dracula," the Count's three vampire wives try to attack the guest he's saving for himself, for his own designs.

They're, shall we say, fairly aggressive in the book, somewhat more subtle but still determined in the 1931 movie.  Dracula orders them away, and they obey, but what if afterwards, in a scene we didn't get to see, he decided to reinforce his position, putting each of them in certain positions?

Then it might have looked like this new scan of the pen-and-ink-wash WolfieToon from 2005!

That's The Spirit! Part One

 Don't you relish that ol' Halloween Spirit?  Hot Dog!

There's a dramatic new cartoon for Thursday, but first I'll show off a couple maybe not everyone has seen!

The theme is Ghosts!

And here is the Tune that Inspired the 'Toon!

Facing the Music, Or, Who Was That Unmasked Man?

Here's something to help with the Holiday Mood!

Christine knew better than to pull the mask off the Ol' Lone Ranger.  

I mean, the mysterious Phantom.

But whatever she expected to find under there, I bet she didn't expect to find herself in this position!

Then again, he has been her secret music tutor, and she'll remember this lesson, for sure.

And Erik's baton might mark something besides tempo.

She's certainly hitting those high notes now!

Happy Howl-o-ween, You Pranksters!

Sure, enjoy yourselves, you mischievous miscreants, but just remember that "prank" and "spank" rhyme!

(I hope it won't spoil any of the fun if I point out the raven perched upon the bust of Pallas above many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore! 

And, just for grins, here's what that cartoon looked like at first!

Mind you, even Invisible Pranksters will be caught!  (Thanks to Charlie "Tunasheart" for reminding me about this one!)

Ooh, speaking of holiday flicks, remember "Night Of The Licking Dead?"

(I'd used part of that cartoon to illustrate THIS PREVIOUS HALLOWEEN OFFERING! )

Have Fun With Warm Buns!!

Frankly, My Dear

Frankenstein is probably my favorite feature creature.  

Or, if you haveta go all "The Big Bang Theory" Sheldon, yes, properly, it's "The Frankenstein Monster."

There have been many, many attempts in the last eight decades to reconceive the Monster, but director James Whale, star Boris Karloff, and make-up maestro Jack Pierce set forever how everyone envisions him in the 1931 movie from Universal Pictures.. 

If you've never seen the first two movies, especially "The Bride of Frankenstein," you're in for a treat when you do.

You probably have seen these:  

(Those are still a couple of my personal favorites!)

And here are my last two takes on the Universal Frankenstein*-- Enjoy!

(*I don't know if that means, "the final ones I'll do," or "the latest ones I did."  Time will tell, time will tell.)

Howl-o-ween Fun 2014!

  

That is a detail from the Halloween WolfieToon over at "DISCIPLINE & DESIRE" this week!  

So is that!!  And here's the one from last year that was almost the display cartoon for the "D&D" home page! 

Here are a couple of Halloween Rerun WolfieBlog Links :
