Geranium Lake Properties, six Barbary horses against six French swords

The unpublished Hamlet scene.

Geranium Lake Properties, "Ruth Fulcanello and the Angry Ghost Cat"

There are many Fulcanello Brothers, nine or ten or twelve, I don't remember how many right at this moment, but there is only one sister. Ruth.

On March 30, 1992, newspapers had a choice of two GLP cartoons. This one, or a scene from Hamlet. (Yes, that Hamlet, by Shakespeare.) Every newspaper chose this panel, even the Newark Star-Ledger. Next Tuesday, we will get to see that unpublished Hamlet scene, and then we will be taking a break for the Thanksgiving holiday. No GLP comics are scheduled for Thursday the 26th, or Sunday the 29th. I may or may not publish an unscheduled offering, but I am not planning to do anything but eat, hang out with family, and go for a little road trip to see some beach.

Geranium Lake Properties, stil de grain vignette

We have dipped into the thirteen folders of unpublished GLP cartoons and brought to light today’s panel. It seems to be another attempt by Wm. Yost to satisfy his obsession with illustrating “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

Asemic comics are published here three times a week, on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday (and sometimes Saturday night). I missed last Sunday. I knew I was going to miss last Sunday, I could have let you all know, and maybe I should say "Sorry 'bout that!"

Geranium Lake Properties, baby carrots (human)

This list was written in pencil on the back of a sketch of today's cartoon (presumably by Mr. Yost):

baby carrots (human)
vinegar
travel brochure
visit to a red planet (martian?)
nunc aut nunquam
functional fool

Part of the Fifty Cent Trip, an intermittent series that appeared from March 1986 through 1989.

Geranium Lake Properties, Very Eel and Rib Key Thing

A relatively straightforward superhero comic panel.

Geranium Lake Properties, "The Return of the Eye-Spider"

Geranium Lake Properties, Chthonia at Chrysorrhoas

Geranium Lake Properties, hollow carotenoid sunset

It's Halloween week and this is the first of three GLP cartoons dedicated to Jack Loki's second favorite holiday. (His favorite holiday is April Fool's Day.) The second Halloween panel will appear on Thursday, the third will appear on Saturday--on the very day of All Saints' Eve. There will be no Sunday cartoon.

Geranium Lake Properties, Jungle Treasure Narrative

This is a part of the GLP series "The Secret of Watchstone Rim".

Geranium Lake Properties, 100 Perpindicular Hearts

You can also read a poem titled "100 Perpindicular Hearts". I don't know if the poem and the cartoon illustrate each other, but they did happen coincidentally.

Geranium Lake Properties, confound your friends, dismay your enemies

We have not shown a misprint from Newark’s Star-Ledger in a while. Yost really loved the Star-Ledger misprints, and this is one of his favorites. Bottom image is how the world outside New Jersey saw today's GLP panel.

Geranium Lake Properties, when the pied ordinaries of your grief become mute

On the back of this comic, Wm. Yost penciled "Series: Jack Loki translates Shakespeare for horned lizards" and "Phrynosoma platyrhinos or coronatum?" His assistant, Ha Kim Ngoc, says there are more than a dozen panels that belong to the Shakespeare translation series, but she is not sure this panel is one of them. Yost wrote his ideas down on pieces of paper, scraps or envelopes or whatever was handy. He jotted all sorts of things on the backs of his GLP panels, including phone numbers of people he never called, titles of books he never read, and confirmation numbers for bills he paid over the phone.
