Weekly Updates

[hugob00m]

Hooray for the weekly updates! Thank you, web-ed for posting them! My favorite this week was the Bill Wenzel hillbilly cartoon. (In spite of the compositional flaw you pointed out. Pappy should either have the girl facing the other way, or he should be using his left hand.) The girl has one of the nicest backsides I've ever seen in a spanking cartoon! And, even though, in the original drawing, she didn't get her cutoffs pulled down, I'd have to say that the thin, tight-fitting fabric that Wenzel draws has got to be the next best thing to bare! And she seems so nonchalant about the spanking she's about to get, totally absorbed in the magazine she's reading.

The Carrie one is nice, except for the fact that she's tied up for her paddling. Couldn't those big, strong rowers manage to hold her without having to tie her up? It's just a personal preference, I guess, but I'd rather see a girl held in an O.T.K. position by the spanker's other hand than to see her tied down.

And I liked the latest Skygirl update. It's a real shame, considering how enemored the atrist was of his character's round bottom, that she never even got a single swat from a male admirer!

Had not seen this hill country spanking one before. Its a great one, though from our perspective the reason she is being spanked(being umarried) is a rather bizarre one.
I have seen various copies of the other one,supposedly based on lil Abner, where the girl is being spanked by an old man, assume her Pa or Grandpa, and wants to know why it can't be the handsome young man nearby, presumably her boyfriend or a guy she has a crush on.
[Several versions of the Dan DeCarlo cartoon Tanner is referring to may be found here - Web-Ed]

Still goin through the Skygirls-talk about lost opportunities galore!
And always great is Doc Cylon, and always great is Bettie Paige. Having a smile on her face, sitting on a hard chair with a red bottom, what a brave lady! Love to see it done in another variation- the paddle on wall having holes in it, and her sitting on a pillow with "pain stars" coming out of her bottom.

Thanks again, Web-ed, for your latest updates to the CSR site.

You are correct, when you point out that the hillbilly pa shown with his still unmarried daughter is spanking her with the wrong hand. But at least the artist, Bill Wenzel, shrewdly positioned the girl far enough across her pa's lap to put her fanny right in the path of his arm sweep.

Sudden thought: My own lovely daughter was 24 before she wed her dream man. Should I have "encouraged" her earlier, in the hillbilly way? Nah, didn't think so.

The Carrie cartoon was very stimulating, but I agree we should have been able to see the paddling in the foreground. Still, I am impressed with how delicate and vulnerable she looks. By the way, aren't most boat race crews composed of only men? It looks to me as if the last crew member in line to wield the paddle is a female.

I have no problems with Doctor Cylon's colorization of the Bettie Page drawing. She is lovely, as always. But who drew those toes? Her toes should look delicate, not ugly and misshapen, as they seem here. If I were drawing this, I would take care to make her toes look as delicate as the rest of her.

Other than that, I enjoy almost everything you posted. Thanks again!

Cheers,
Dan

hi web-ed,

i liked the drawing of Bettie Page. i think he has depicted her as very lovely,soft, sweet and, as Dan mentioned, delicate. a very good drawing i think. Doc Cylon did a very nice job of the coloring this one too. i just love the fact that she is smiling sweetly as she sits on her sore bottom............just as it should be . i had to laugh at the Wenzel hill country spanking what with the obvious indifference of both spanker and spankee . obviously a common happening for everyone involved. the spanker looks as if he would rather be taking a nap instead of preforming this "duty" the spankee is much more interested in her romance magazine. nice bottom in this one . i too wish they wouldn't spank with the wrong hand but as Dan pointed out, at least she's far enough over for him to reach that shapely target . i like the ones with her pants off too. in the black and white one, her bottom isn't as nicely shaped however. the colored one is more true to the original curves i think. i agree with you that the paddle being applied to Carrie should have been in the foreground. i wonder if the artist did it that way because all of her bare bottom is exposed in the other pic while it is partially obscured by the oar in the other one? well, i have to say that skygirl certainly knows how to bend over . it's hard to believe the folks who did this one weren't spankos. it's a good thing i didn't have to work with her cause with all that bending over i would have been forced to spank her . another great update. i really love all the history you provide as well as your observations and insight . thanks, phil

HI Web- ED CSR!!!!!! REALLY ENJOYED THIS WEEK SPANKING DRAWINGS Bill Wenzel`s Hill spanking is great only problem is the girl is sixteen Nice otk position Wenzel also gave the spankee a rather large rearend making this drawing much much better Talk about miss opportunity Ginger Mcguire`s Skygirl was full of them This lady was indeed very very spankable and should have been spank once in her comic got to hand it to the artist for giving it male readers plenty to think of when looking a it heroine Great job Doctor Cylon for adding your magic touch to Rick Volkmar`s Betty page drawing like how she is made to straddle that chair while having her bottom spank hard with a paddle Don`t think Miss Page was ever spank by a man doing her time making spanking photos or films in the 50`s only f \f . Carrie Boat race paddling is nice like how she is restrain to a pole for the paddling also like that the artist had her spank by more than one person the after paddling was also good having her read about it in the newspaper THANKS!!!!!

[web-ed]

And thanks to all who commented - I'm glad this week's updates were so well-received, and hope they will continue to be so in the future. And now for a few specific points that were raised:

By the way, aren't most boat race crews composed of only men? It looks to me as if the last crew member in line to wield the paddle is a female.

I hadn't noticed this, but Dan is right - the last man in the paddle-line is posed in a way that could be considered effeminate. I think this was probably an oversight on the part of artist Mario Capaldi rather than intentional, and the paddler was supposed to be male despite the pose.

i have to say that skygirl certainly knows how to bend over . it's hard to believe the folks who did this one weren't spankos. it's a good thing i didn't have to work with her cause with all that bending over i would have been forced to spank her .

I think all of us on this board would agree with Phil, and none of us would have been able to resist spanking that spankable Skygirl! Matt Baker only drew one spanking that I know of, in Teen Age Romances #3 which I posted not long ago. Still, it's interesting to speculate as to whether he might have been into it, given the incredible number of times Skygirl bent over and provided a suitable target. Perhaps he simply didn't have the opportunity to draw more spankings because he was working from the plot provided him by a writer.

Bill Wenzel`s Hill spanking is great only problem is the girl is sixteen

This is extremely embarassing , but as many times as I looked at this cartoon and considered the gag, which was intended to make fun of the supposed habit in the hill country of getting married (probably to a cousin) at an early age, I never thought about it from the standpoint of CSR's "no children" policy until Butch pointed this out. Cripes, she is only sixteen!

This is the first time I've run into this problem with a M/F Humorama cartoon (there was a teacher/student one by George Morrice I let slide on the usual ground that she was 18, and Bill Ward did a F/M mother/son one where the boy was certainly under age, but I chose not to post it even as part of Halloween Horror week). I can't really just yank it down now, though. I suppose we could pretend that they're so backward back there in the hills that they don't know how to count, and she's really 18, but that's a mighty weak excuse. And of course it is a non-erotic scene, being a straight discipline father/daughter spanking, but even so I probably shouldn't have posted it. All I can say is that none of my remaining stock of Humorama cartoons will raise this concern.

By the way, most states in the U.S. do allow a girl to get married at the age of 16 if she has the consent of her parents (I believe only Mississippi allows marriage at this age without parental consent). Interestingly, Kentucky, which most of us might think of as "hill country" forbids marriage before the age of 18! Cartoonists like Wenzel pretty much had to employ stereotypes as a kind of shorthand, but of course they weren't accurate depictions of people and places. Presumably these state legislatures had good reasons for allowing marriage at 16, which sounds awfully young to me although maybe I'm just getting old. Perhaps the thinking was that parents would only consent if the girl were already pregnant, and it was better for her to have a husband and the child a father in such a case, but that is pure speculation on my part - I didn't have time to check the history when I looked up the statutes just now.

• Doctor Cylon colorizes a a drawing by Frank Cho in which a bad girl's skirt gets blown up by the wind. You can guess what color was revealed underneath!
• New scan of Bill Wenzel's Shrink Spank. And we now know the date of this cartoon's first appearance.
• Humorama Series #66 - A pretty scofflaw gets the OTK treatment she deserves in another Bill Wenzel cartoon. From our personal collection.
• Carrie causes a false fire alarm - then experiences a four-alarm blaze herself where she sits down after the fireman turns her over his knee! This is Carrie spanking #4 - four more to go in this series.

Comics Spanking Search: I didn't find anything on my own this week, but Collegeboy recently located a couple, one from Ella Cinders which I expect to post early in 2012 and one from Blondie that will go into the Comics Spanking Data Base. Tiptopper sent me one from Abbie An' Slats, a nice father/daughter scene that unfortunately takes place behind a closed door , and Bawdy Bard sent me several he had commissioned from Kevin Karstens. I'm still trying to figure out when I can schedule all these.

Speaking of the Comics Spanking Data Base, as of this week it's reached the 475 spanking mark! I only wish there were more M/F in it. Looks like we're going to make 500 sometime in 2012.

Getting back to the unmarried at 16 story Granny Clampett made several disapproving comments about Ellie May in this regard in the Beverly Hillbillies.
Sixteen is still the age of consent for women in Australia.

hi web-ed,

i like the Frank Cho drawing. not only it is a nice looking lady but also i love the dress blown up and the startled, embarrassed expression on the spankee's face nice coloring on her bottom too. looking at the spankee in the Wenzel cartoon, i really think the "well rounded education" caption was more appropriate even if it wasn't the original very nicely shaped bottom indeed and i really like the clingy dress in the good scan of the original. i thought the spankee's position looked a little stiff...................perhaps caused by the position of her arms. even at that i still thought it was a pleasing pic. i like the well bent over position of the spankee in the keep off the grass toon it's made even better by the fact that her feet can't touch the ground. i like the garters peeking out from under that tight dress too. i'm not sure about the cop's expression. perhaps he is being professional by resisting his urge to grin like a Cheshire cat . Carrie is nice but they could have colored up that bottom more. another good update . thanks, phil

[daneldorado]

Thanks, Web-ed, for the great new spanking pics. I had seen most of them before, but for some weird reason I had not saved them to my computer. Not a problem any more.

The Wenzel cartoon that shows a cop spanking a pretty girl for walking on the grass when she was prohibited doing so, is a little puzzling. Yes, she is bent overhis knee at a perfect, V-shaped angle, and yes she is gorgeous to look at. But what is going on, with the cop's left hand? (His spanking hand.)

To me, it looks as if his hand is closed as in a fist, rather than open and prepared to spank. Maybe the original toon had him holding something, like maybe his night stick? As I say, it's puzzling.

This can not be the original version. He is spanking the girl with his fist? Not likely. And there's something wrong with the way his thumb is depicted, also. It looks as if he's wearing a thimble... though of course, no one wears a thimble on their thumb.

Other than that, the new uploads are great. Oh, I said I had seen most of them before. And I know for a fact, that there exists a larger scan of the "Carrie" fireman spanking.

Thanks for looking after our needs so carefully, Web-ed.

Cheers,
Dan

hi Dan,

interesting observation. i had completely missed the fact that his hand is closed in a fist.............probably concentrating on other "aspects of the pic it seems obvious to me that you're right and he must have been holding some sort of implement. as far as his thumb goes, it does look strange. to me it almost looks as if he has a bandage on it.

i uploaded the spanking pic and the next one of Carrie rubbing her bottom. these are the biggest ones i have. in the version i have, there are 8 single pics and the collages are put at the end. i have an entire cd of Carrie if anyone's interested in more of her stuff. these are courtesy of Yank for those of you who might remember him from Arild's group. phil

[overbarrel49]

hi web-ed,

i couldn't help noticing that my FATASS Santa spanking pic is on the home page and finding it there brought a smile to my face i notice that there's one at the bottom left over from Arild's old group too..................done by Angus Old. i hadn't looked at that one for years. thanks, phil

[web-ed]

Oh boy, I blew it again - I didn't realize that the F.A.T.A.S.S cartoon was yours, Phil, although I did wonder about it from the style. When I looked just now, I realized your signature was there in the window pane Appropriate credit has now been given where it is due.

Thanks for providing those blow-ups of Carrie and the Fireman. They have now been added to the page.

It looks as if he's wearing a thimble... though of course, no one wears a thimble on their thumb.

Phil agrees with Dan, and so do I. Here is a close-up of the hand in question:


I've added Dan's comments to the page, along with some further guesswork of my own, which I reproduce in part here:

The questions are, what was changed, and when? We think that since most cops don't carry hairbrushes around with them, Dan's suggestion is the most likely one - it was a night stick in the cop's hand. Perhaps Abe Goodman felt this was too violent, and indeed a billy club is not a suitable spanking implement. In fact, when Dan DeCarlo did his cartoons with very similar themes (which we'll see later in this series), he had the cop use his open hand, and this was probably after the Wenzel cartoon had appeared. But what could Goodman do? Our guess is that with 10 or 12 Humorama titles being published every month, he was under such pressure to get the books out that he didn't have time to send the art back through the mail to Wenzel for correction.

Assuming the printing plates were prepared from photostatic copies of the original art, we think Goodman would have had the photostat altered, but by whom will probably remain a mystery forever. It's not likely that he would have walked it over to the Timely (Marvel) offices, because in 1956 Timely was barely hanging on by a thread and the old Syd Shores-led Bullpen was no more. It could have been an assistant, if he had one. It could even have been Goodman himself, except that we don't believe he could draw. On the other hand, the alteration isn't very good, so who knows - maybe it was him.

HI WEB-ED!!!! I had a copy of the spanking Bill Wenzel drew of the lady being spank for walking on the grass didn`t notice the cop`s hand before because I was too busy looking at the lady over his lap nice round buttocks bringing out a curvy figure is that a bandage on his thumb?? :lol:The other Bill Wenzel drawing is much better with the guy hand ready to strike! The Shrink comment about well rounded was correct and I don`t mean about education I talking about her rear nice and round and the way her dress clinging to it great otk position also love the other two scan Love the Santa spanking arts GREAT!!!!! Look like Santa is enjoying himself giving all these naughty ladies their comeuppance Maybe he can give Rudolf the night off and use a few of these ladies glowing red bottoms to guide his sled tonight Love Frank Cho and really love this drawing of Brandy`s burning red tush Great color by Doctor Cylon The Carrie spank by the Firemen is good but lack imagination if would have been better if she was spanked for setting her building on firewith her carelessness Thanks!!!!!

[willjohn]

Nice to see the Christmas Cartoons again with Old Saint Nick warming some female derrieres.

[hugob00m]

Thank you, web-ed! A somewhat short, but extremely sweet weekly update! The Dr. Cylon alteration of the Frank Cho drawing and the Carrie strip were cute, but what I enjoyed the most were the two Wenzel cartoons you posted!

About the cop and his fist... I agree with the rest of you that Wenzel must've drawn the cop holding something in his hand originally and that someone less skilled went back later and removed the implement. (probably with a little White-out) If the cop started out with a billy club, I totally approve of its removal! A cop's billy club would be a horribly inappropriate spanking implement... and very uncharacteristic of Wenzel, who, as far as I know, only drew men using their open hands in all of his other spanking cartoons. It looks to me like someone used White-out to cover over an implement in the cop's hand, but didn't go far enough by drawing an open hand to cover the fist. The woman, however, is lovely to look at... with the voluptuous figure and clingy dress that are typical of Wenzel's best drawings.

The psychologist cartoon has long been one of my favorites, and I'm glad to see a scan of such high resolution! The pen and brush strokes that Wenzel used to portray the woman's shapely posterior and the thin layer of fabric covering it can be seen more clearly than ever! The woman's pose and the look on her face suggest that she is acquienscent, or at least, resigned to her fate... perhaps even convinced that being spanked is a necessary part of her "treatment". A real-life shrink would probably get his license revoked, and maybe even face criminal charges for spanking a patient... but it makes a delicious fantasy!

[daneldorado]

Hiya Web-ed:

Now, THASS what I'm talkin' about! Yeah, the larger scans of the "Carrie" fireman spanking are most welcome here, and appreciated. Thanks for posting them.

Cheers,
Dan

[daneldorado]

Hiya Web-ed... In outrageous and flagrant violation of every copyright law extant, I took it upon myself to re-draw the spanking hand on the cop in the Wenzel cartoon. I couldn't stand the way it looked when it was first posted here, and I doubt that Bill Wenzel intended it to look like that either. Here's the way it is now, in my personal files:





Bear in mind, this is not the way I would normally draw a spanking hand. In my mind, the cop's fingers should be tighter together, not spread out as they are here; but what I drew was what I imagine Bill Wenzel would have drawn. And I think it looks better this way, rather than the "closed fist" we were seeing before.

Cheers,
Dan

[web-ed]

Good job, Dan! I'll have to add your fixed-hand version to the page. And don't worry about the copyright - as far as I know, these cartoons are in the public domain now because Humorama owned all the rights and even kept the original art, leaving the artists with nothing, and then went out of business almost 30 years ago leaving no heirs, successors, or assignees that I know of. (Humorama's physical assets, such as the original art, were sold off.) Thus the rights (which would be close to expiring anyway) are no longer vested in any individual or corporation - at least, that's my take on things.
