Fred the Clown: The Last Goon Show of All

This strip was done as a response to the death of Harry Secombe, the last surviving member of the Goons, the 1950s comedy troupe who profoundly affected the way I see the world*.  Being a rabid E. C. Segar nut, I couldn't resist a nod to the original Goons as well.


*(I realise that's a very unfashionable thing to say these days, but it was true then and it's true now.)

  2. well done. 100 years from now, Spike and his boys will still be the best comedy put to ear. (And, for the most part, eye as well.)
