Re: A familiar aphorism in the Charlie Chan #3 comic book leads to a question!

Lou,

The more connection with your venerable blog the better! Please do create a link such as you mention!

It was Louise who originally added the comic books to the Comics section. There is a public domain site where she accessed them. She has access to some more examples and at some point it will be great to see them join the present comics collection. I think that included will be the six issues of "The New Adventures of Charlie Chan" put out by DC in 1958.

I agree that the current site is far superior to the old platform that served us for 20 years! I can still smell the fresh paint and carpets!

Take care...thank you...

Sincerely,
Rush

Rush and Lou, it is amazing, the information you guys dig up about the immortal Chan and his creator. You both wet my appetite to read more Charlie Chan comics. Also soon I will be rereading Keeper Of The Keys. I can't wait to read the aphorism for myself. You guys really enhance the joy I get from Charlie Chan. Thank you, so much.

David, thank you. It is seriously "Tuff" keeping up with the master...Mr. Glick! :sweat: BTW, I'm rereading The Black Camel at the moment...good stuff!

A labor of love, sir...!

Regarding our SUNDAY comics, the current mystery focuses on the intrigue surrounding a baseball team and a gang with criminal intentions! Take a look!

Sincerely,
Rush

I will do that. Thank you, so much.

David, Aloha & Hau'oli Makahiki Hou (Happy New Year!) If memory serves, last year you were reading (or rereading) Keeper of the Keys...Biggers' final novel, correct? And I was re-visiting The Black Camel.

It is amazing the things one comes across when taking up these novels again and again. Matter of fact, this year I will reveal what some may consider a "stunning revelation!" However, I'm saving it for my August blog to celebrate Biggers' birthday! :thinking_face:

On Rush's recommendation, I did read "Charlie Chan's Luxury Cruise" (2022) by B. Allyn Clayton. While it won't stand up to the originals as a true pastiche, it was a fun read and a good story line.

Happy reading and good hearing from you David. Lou
