On the latest super-spankings:

next to The spanking of Batgirl by Robin

Poor Harly would be doing much sitting for awhile

Every thing on this drawing is great good otk position Harly full plump bottom up high giving Ivy a nice round target to smack with that paddle

Glad these were well-received. I can't know in advance what will strike a chord with readers, so I simply try to post what I think are good or better items and let all of you decide what you like best. I've been doing at least one "Batman Family" spanking per week, and will continue to do so. I would have run out by the end of summer, but Mr. Jer has been doing some which many of you may already have seen that I've added to the files, and I can't say whether we'll exhaust them all this year or not. I've decided to wind up
Super-Spanking Summer II on Sept. 28, at which point I'll have to decide whether to wait for
Super-Spanking Summer III or just do more superhero stuff before next summer.
On the Humorama Series and spanking humor cartoons:

I noticed that too, Phil - DeCarlo normally drew proper cami-knickers for our delectation. That may be one of the reasons why the first version I found had the panties removed - someone else didn't like them.

That's before my thick head realized that there were published drawings in Hearst's old American Weekly and elsewhere long before the new age of humor cartoons from such mags as Joker, Breeze, Jest, Laff et alii....
You've actually raised a number of interesting questions, Dan. The answer depends partly on what we mean by "spanking cartoon". You mentioned the
American Weekly ones, and of course there were some interesting spanking postcards from the 1920's and even earlier! I think most of us have seen these (but just to make sure, I'll be posting them some time next year). I'm sure we also all remember that flapper spanking by the Devil from 1930 on the cover of that magazine with the spicy stories (see it in the Picture Gallery).
We'll go more deeply into this subject another time, but the earliest true spanking drawings and illustrations such as the ones in
American Weekly seem quite purely disciplinary with no erotic overtones, while some of the spanking postcards must have been rather suggestive for the day but scrupulously avoided anything as blatant as OTK positioning. They all follow the basic Vaudeville pattern of having a pretty girl (or a big woman) bending over and a guy trying to work up the nerve to give her a sharp whack on the fanny. I think there's a good chance the slapstick humor was meant to forestall any too-blatant eroticism.
The OTK position, combined with an adult M/F pairing, seemed to change things in the minds of editors, and perhaps readers as well - it's more overtly a full-blown spanking with all the trimmings, you might say - and it wasn't necessarily pure discipline since the male looked as though he might have an ulterior motive. The first of these I can document was not Humorama, and dates from some time in early 1955. The earliest known Humorama OTK spanking cartoon is from July 1955. It was Bill Wenzel's (and Humorama's) first secretary spanking, also. It may be found here in
CSR as
Secretary Spanking #26 (out of necessity my secretary spanking numbering is not chronological).

So am I, b00m! The Humorama Spanking Cartoons were the largest and most important body of that kind of work in their day. In fact, there hasn't been anything like them since in the sense of one publisher printing spanking cartoons from so many different artists. The best of today's spanking artists is arguably as good as the Humorama stuff, but you won't find them under one publishing house, or even find a publishing house any more!
Anyway, I've got 14 cartoons left (plus some updates to ones already posted), so we won't run out before around Thanksgiving. And even after that, a small number might turn up, in which case the
Humorama Series will be revived!
