Modification by Funbun. Posted by the Web-Ed on 05/14/2010
Romance comics, with their plethora of spoiled brats and headstrong girls headed for trouble, provided plenty of opportunities to work in an occasional spanking scene. War comics, which were largely contemporaneous with Romance (50's - 70's), did not. Their emphasis was on scenes of combat, and with relatively few female characters, it would not have been surprising if there had never been a single spanking in any of them. In fact we had never seen one until a couple of years ago when we ran across this.
We don't have any other panels to indicate what might have led up to this spanking, which appears to be of a waitress in a tavern. We're not even sure what comic it's from. It looks like a DC war book, and we're going to guess it's Our Army At War. [10/08/2010 update: now confirmed. See below for more information and scans.] The version at the top is the original, and what struck us at first was how much trouble some artist had gone through in order to make a relatively minor modification (bottom). The spankee's bottom is rounded, lifted up slightly, and given a little better definition.
Animated by UASketcher.
These were worthy enhancements, but we had no idea who had done them until we found this animated version by Jon (UASketcher) and realized it was Funbun, whom we now know typically makes these kinds of alterations (although he also generally bares the bottom). Just as they had with the Batman / Marcia Monroe spanking, the two men had teamed up with the admirable goal of making a good comic-book spanking even better! The now-bared bottom and expression upon impact (you can almost hear her saying "Oww!") are very satisfying, don't you think?
