Weekly Updates for 02/22/2013

Post by web-ed »

For links to this week's updates please go to the Home Page by clicking on "Chicago Spanking Review" at the top of this or any other Forum page.
  • I successfully ignored the impact of Fifty Shades of Gray for a long time, but couldn't do so any longer once I saw Tim's The Impact of Good Literature, in which one young lady feels the impact - literally! :)
  • Humorama Update: The pieces continue to fall into place as we locate the first appearance of Bill Wenzel's Harem Spanking.
  • Humorama Series #128: Comics artist Tom Sutton makes his only appearance in the series with this cartoon of a young woman who, when a man proposes the traditional "Bottoms up" toast, drapes herself across his knee. 1960's party fun! This is the 180th Humorama spanking cartoon presented on CSR, and it has never been seen anywhere else.
180 cartoons is quite a milestone, and we will see 190 yet :!: although I don't think we're going to make it to 200. In fact, I'm not sure there are 200 in all, but that's a topic I'll take up when we finally reach the end of the series. (And in case anyone is still wondering, the reason Series #128 is the 180th cartoon is simply that I had already posted 52 cartoons before I started doing the "official" series.)

hi web-ed,

i liked the story conveyed by "the Impact of Good Literature" :D . in particular i thought it was the change of attitude that really made this story what it is. first we have the hateful expressions and folded arms in panels 1&2 and then by panel 5, which is my favorite, she is standing submissively, head slightly bowed and one arm behind her :D . and finally to happiness and the desire for more even though it's obvious her bottom is smarting ;) . i'd really like to see Tim expand on this story both by finishing this scene so we can see more spanking and also what happens afterward and also as a continuing story so we could follow the lovers as their relationship develops 8-) . thanks to Michael for sending this one in :D . thanks for the information on the first printing of the Wenzel harem spanking :D i also enjoyed reading the info about Humorama and the Humorama line as well as your comments about the harem spanking scenario. i have no doubt that it was indeed difficult for the Humorama artists to keep coming up with new ideas for spanking drawings and gags. in my opinion, Dave Wolfe is probably the king of this currently. he's been doing a drawing a week for Discipline and Desire for quite a few years now and i am constantly amazed that he can keep coming up with new and different ideas and scenarios for them............and i think most of his Wolfietoons have better gags too :D . ok, the spanker in the drawing by Tom Sutton is just totally goofy :lol: . he needs to put down that martini and start paying the "proper" attention to the willing, shapley young lady over his lap with the seat of her skimpy panties sticking up :D . of course, in his defense, it is difficult to think about the proper course of action if you've just creamed your pants :lol: . i just love the "hopeful" look on her face as she waits patiently waits to see what will happen. i thoroughly enjoyed your discussion of the social change taking place in the transition from the 50s to the 60s and i think the hopeful expression on the spankee's face fits very nicely with that discussion. she is willing to put herself in an embarrassing situation and show her submissiveness openly in the hope of getting the desired results. i can't believe that on one else at this party is paying any attention to all this :lol: thanks too for the info about Sutton's career in comparison to other artists. very interesting. congratulations on #180 in the Humorama series and thanks for finding and posting all of them. phil

HI WEB-ED CSR!!! First off seem that the book Fifty Shade Of Grey is still going strong And juding by the drawing from Tim it might be awhile before it leave :lol: Wonder are many women now being turn on to spanking after reading this book 8-) :lol: Anyway the panel is good and the story line is great ! meaning this woman finally give in to her submissive side and take a spanking :twisted: Kinda good to see something like this played out to the modern woman of today! the drawing itself is nice only wish Tim have giving the spankee a more bigger rounder bottom! the otk is good and the spanking he given her is great! Hope to see more of this story! Speaking of submission Tom Sutton `s Woman Drapes Herself Across Guy`s Knees is excellence! The woman look like one of Ward`s Glamor Dolls :D very nice figure large breasts and a rear that was built for spanking if needed! :lol: The guy on the other hand reminds me of Jerry Lewis Nutty Professor :lol: only hope he takes the cue and give this woman the spanking that she wants :lol: also like her lace panty with the Hearts! sexy :D this woman must have been spanked plenty of time and knows when to get in position when order to bottoms up! :lol: really like this drawing and the gag from Mr. Sutton 8-) Bill Wenzel`s Harem Spanking drawing is nice except the spankee looks as though she is about to fall off the spanker`s lap! love how beautiful the spankee look and buxoms her breasts are only wished that Mr. Wenzel have done more on the part that being spanked :lol: nothing makes a spanking drawing better than seeing the spankee with a big bottom ! just the thought of having so many wives to spank have to be a spanko`s dream 8-) :lol: making this a good drawing from Bill Wenzel! 8-)

Weekly Updates for 03/01/2013

Post by web-ed »

The Humorama Series marches on as we enter March, but before we get to the updates, here is the February search report:

February Comics Pages:
Pages searched: 2400
Total: 408534
Comic Spankings: 0

While I struck out with Golden Age comics, I did find two spankings in a 50's publication called Girls and Gags (not Humorama, but similar to it). They are

1. George Troop shrink spanks patient. We've seen this gag before, and as a matter of fact we've seen Troop in Humorama Spanking Positions, but this is the only Troop "spanker" I know of, and it will be posted as part of a non-Humorama series in the future.
2. Homer Provence Father/Junior. This was a surprise, as I did not think there were any more Homer spanking cartoons out there. We won't be seeing it since it's M/M and involves a boy, but if anyone is interested you can send me a PM and I'll forward it to you.

For links to this week's updates please go to the Home Page by clicking on "Chicago Spanking Review" at the top of this or any other Forum page.
  • Because of the interest expressed in our recent posting of Joe Shuster's Secretary Spanking #34 we're going to start a series of Shuster's non-Humorama spanking work a little earlier than planned. First up is this OTK school-style switching from Continental #1. Fans of Kevin Karstens and Bawdy Bard need not worry at this temporary interruption of their series, as they will return during the upcoming Super-Spanking Summer III if not sooner.
  • Humorama Update: A sweet young thing is puzzled when Mr. Kringle gives her a birthday spanking - and it isn't even her birthday! New scan of this Dan DeCarlo classic's first appearance in 1957 from Steve W.
  • Humorama Series #129: One more "spanker" from Bill Ward has turned up: when Nurse Grabner bends over the files, the doctor demonstrates how psychomotor impulses work by whacking her bottom!

hi web-ed,

more interesting information surrounding the Joe Schuster drawing you posted today. it sure makes me wonder why they even bothered to post issue #1 if they were never gonna do another one :lol: . as you mentioned, there are some problems but the otk position in this one but it's much better than either #15 or #34. in both those cases, the spankee is appealing and well drawn but appears to me to be somehow "apart" from the rest of the scene. i'll be interested to see more of Schuster's work and more info about him and the publications he worked for as we go forward :D . you mentioned that Abe Goodman apparently liked the De Carlo birthday spanking well enough to give it a prominent place. well, what's not to like :lol: i too like the new scan with the wide eyed look of shock on the spankee's face and of course the hose, garters and frilly panties showcasing her little bottom :D . i have to agree with you that we, the viewers, don't find any thing wrong with this spanking even though it's not her birthday and she's done nothing wrong :D . interesting speculation about the "bending over the files" drawing by Bill Ward. i hope you're able to discover the first publication of this one so we'll know how close your 1956 estimate really is :D . i'll be looking forward to your article about how bending over gave way to more modern spankings :D . thanks, phil

HI WEB- ED CSR!!!! The Joe Shuster Otk School Stlye Switching is great ! the over the knees position is off. should have been made to lay more flatly over his lap with her breasts hanging past his knees! instead of looking crunch up! The spankee is very pretty and I love her long bloomers and boots :lol: hope to see you post more from Mr. Shuster especially from his work in Vintage Sleaze! Like the new scan of Mr. Kringle giving a woman a Birthday spanking even though it`s not her Birthday :lol: Always like the spanking arts of Dan DeCarlo and this drawing is one of his best next to the HillBilly spankings! :lol: love the shock look on the spankee face as she is being spanked :D also like how her bottom is bared and red on the color scan! :lol: thats one nice birthday spanking she got! Great drawing from Dan DeCarlo! 8-) Thats one large shapely bottom Nurse Grabner has and I can`t blame the Doctor for whacking it as she is bent over :D Seem that in this drawing Bill Ward showcase the spankee`s bottom the breasts :D Very big round and spankable! love the gag and the doctor is right about Impulses meaning he just have to smack her rear :D now with the position she in and that way his hand is coming down I expect her bottom will bounce from the hard slap :lol: this is a good drawing from Ward only I wish it was over the knees!

Hiya Web-ed:

Excellent choice of new updates this week. I had seen the "Josh" spank toons before, but until you pointed it out to us here on your site, I did not realize that "Josh" is actually Joe Shuster, of "Superman" fame. I like the way he has the spankee positioned, in "Secretary Spanking No. 34," and although you are correct in saying the girl isn't really over the boss' knee but seems to be floating above it, I still like it because the contours of her positioning are, to my mind, perfect in this context.

The same is true of your second update, which I believe you said is also by Shuster. This would be the toon you say came from a book titled Continental. Details and shading in this drawing are superior to the "Secretary Spanking" toons, so you can say this one is better than those... although the spankee here is wearing bloomers and high button shoes, surely an anachronism by the mid20th century, which we assume was the era of the toon's first publication. Again, the girl's positioning is excellent.

And so is the "Mr. Kringle" cartoon. Has anyone ever asked if his first name is Kris? ;) In this non-birthday birthday spanking, we see a wonderful drawing by my favorite spank artist, Dan DeCarlo. Man, that guy could draw women!

As you said, this gag is classic DeCarlo: a man spanks a pretty woman on a flimsy pretext (here, a "birthday" spanking when it isn't really her birthday) because he secretly enjoys it, and the spankee never does catch on. You did quite a nice psychological profile of the sugar daddy here, intuiting that he spanks her for no reason other than he wants to, and the cute young thing across his lap is not really trying to resist. Bingo! Those are precisely the correct sentiments here. In fact, you did a pretty thorough job of describing my own technique, back when I was single, in my twenties, and dating. I confess that I used to try the very same approach back then. (Got away with it too, a bunch of times.)

And, as you said in your comments: Where's the harm? The girl isn't really complaining, so we should just enjoy this type of "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" humor and smile. :D

Well done, Web-ed. An update to remember!

Cheers,
Dan

I never got logged on last week, and now we have this week's update!

First, I'll comment on my two favorites from last week. The Tim Sutton one was great, and I had never seen it anywhere else. It's a shame there aren't any other spanking cartoons by this artist. I love his style. It looks to me like he used a draftsman's pen to draw with because the lines are so fine and precise. And, even though I enjoy the brushwork of
Decarlo, Wenzel and Ward, it's fun to see someone who can do such believable shading using crosshatching, scribbles and dots. I especially like the was he draws the lace on the woman's panties.

The Wenzel harem cartoon was one I had already seen before, but it's always nice to get a better resolution. You've written before regarding the question of whether Wenzel was "one of us"... and I still don't know for sure, but I can tell that he definitely loved big, round feminine backsides!
web-ed wrote:Humorama Series #129: One more "spanker" from Bill Ward has turned up: when Nurse Grabner bends over the files, the doctor demonstrates how psychomotor impulses work by whacking her bottom!
Ha ha! Psychomotor impulses indeed! I'd like to be able to use that excuse every time I see a beautiful woman bending over like that. (Although, with the position he has her in, she's already so off balance that a whack on her behind is likely to give her a bad headache from hitting against the file cabinet!) This is a great example of Ward's ability to shade using an ink wash and going back over the highlights with a conte crayon. She looks like she's abolut to split that tight skirt at the seams at any moment, doesn't she? Wow! And, I might add, I've never seen this drawing anywhere else! Thanks for finding it for us!
web-ed wrote:Humorama Update: A sweet young thing is puzzled when Mr. Kringle gives her a birthday spanking - and it isn't even her birthday! New scan of this Dan DeCarlo classic's first appearance in 1957 from Steve W.
I'm already quite familiar with this one, but once more, you've managed to get a copy with much better resolution than I've ever seen anywhere else... and tracked down information on its first publication. The better the scan is, the more we can appreciate Decarlo's wonderful brushwork! It's easy to understand why the man in the picture didn't want to wait until the girl's actual birthday to give her a birthday spanking!

On last week's "Bottoms Up, Sonya" by Tom Sutton:

I don't believe it's ever been on the 'net before. While I'm happy to bring good-quality reposts to CSR readers, of course it's always a special thrill when I can show you all something that hasn't been seen before. Of the dozen or so remaining cartoons in the Humorama Series, I think all but the penultimate one, which came from Dan's collection and has already been posted on this board, will be new to everyone.

On the Joe Shuster spanking in Continental #1:

You'll be glad to know, Butch, that we're going to be seeing a weekly series of Shuster's other M/F spanking illustrations for Nights of Horror. This will run alongside the Humorama Series as long as I can manage to do both - I have to work in a series of 11 Humorama pastiches that Tim did as well as two of my own articles, so our production schedule from now until May is looking pretty crowded.

Phil asked why they never did a Continental #2. Since there is a comic with a cliffhanger ending in issue #1, it seems clear that they did intend to do issue #2 but something went wrong. With publishing there are two big problems you can run into in getting a book to market: the first is financing and the second is distribution. Presumably, the publishers of Continental encountered one or both of these problems. It's a pity in a way, because if it had continued we might well have gotten more spanking illustrations from Shuster.

On the DeCarlo Kringle Birthday Spanking update:

Everyone seemed to like this. It's really too bad that I'm fairly certain there aren't any undiscovered DeCarlo Humorama "spankers" left out there.

Last word to Dan:

For links to this week's updates please go to the Home Page by clicking on "Chicago Spanking Review" at the top of this or any other Forum page.
  • We continue our series on the spanking art of Joe Shuster with The Strange Loves of Alice, from Nights of Horror #1.
  • Humorama Update: We finally tracked down one of the printings of Dan DeCarlo's Nurse Smiley Spanked, and Todd provides a colored version as well.
  • Humorama Series #130: A very atypical cartoon (for Humorama) by Mike Gorman as a football coach spanks a cheerleader! This was a surprising discovery we made only a few weeks ago, and another historic first from CSR!
P.S. I posted a few more "cheesecake" shots of various Humorama models, including Irish McCalla, over on the "Spanking in Media" forum in case anyone's interested. I also added some of Bettie Page just now (she's got her own topic), even though I really thought I'd already done them on Tuesday night. Must have been tired... anyway, enjoy! 8-)

hi web-ed,

that's another attractive and nicely drawn spankee, with skirt up and panties down, by Joe Shuster. apparently Shuster was more intent on drawing a great looking spankee than on her OTK position as that seems to be the pattern in the ones we have seen so far. you mentioned that the bare bottomed spankee would probably get the notice of the censors and i noticed on the cover that you show on this page that the young lady restrained on that wheel has a nipple exposed which would have no doubt have pissed them off too. i'll be waiting anxiously for more information both on Shuster and on the magazine :D . when i looked at the DeCarlo nurse spanking and saw the date of 1970, i was thinking that it was probably the 3rd printing............no doubt the result of the web-education i've been getting since i arrived here :lol: . thanks for the added info on this one and thanks to Todd for the colorized version :D . i found your speculation on the cheerleader spanking scenario to be pretty interesting. i think Gorman certainly had a good idea with it even if it was ahead of it's time. i think i would agree that it is probably a hard subject to come up with a good gag about. it strikes me that cheerleader spankings are normally of a more sexual nature which may help explain why it's harder to come up with a humorous gag and also why they are a more recent development. i have to agree with you that this particular cheerleader isn't particularly curvaceous. when i think of cheerleaders, i think of those curvy bottoms peeking out from under those fly away skirts and this representation doesn't fill that bill very well. more good updates this week :D . thanks, phil

This is a pretty good spanking scene, although it's F/F, with the blonde Alice being taken firmly (if not too securely) across Miss Grundy's knee and her panties taken down so that she may receive the spanks on her bare bottom.
Yeah. It is pretty good for an F/F pic, although I would've much rather seen Alice turned over a man's knee!

This is my favorite one this week, even though I've seen it before... AND even though the caption is really lame. I think this has to come under the "wink wink nod nod" category! ;) ;) ;) ;) Nurse Smiley probably didn't really do anything to deserve punishment... but a cute little backside like hers should not be allowed to go unspanked! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
web-ed wrote:Humorama Series #130: A very atypical cartoon (for Humorama) by Mike Gorman as a football coach spanks a cheerleader! This was a surprising discovery we made only a few weeks ago, and another historic first from CSR!

Gorman apparently didn't specialize in girlie cartoons as so many of the best Humorama artists did, for the spankee here is not particularly curvaceous,
I would've preferred to see one of the "Big Five" handle the subject of cheerleader spanking, but since they didn't, I'm glad you were able to find this one.

Weekly Updates for 03/15/2013

Post by web-ed »

"Beware the Ides of March! It could mean plenty of spankings!" That wasn't exactly what the old soothsayer warned Julius Caesar, but it's my "warning" to CSR readers as we plunge ahead with our March 15 updates.

First, there is an interesting interview with the Janus photographer Vic Barnes (and really, he functioned in some ways as co-editor). Although many of you won't have seen any actual hard copies of Janus or Februs since they were published in England, their photos have been reprinted all over the place on spanking websites, including a few on CSR. Check it out if you're interested in knowing more about how all that vintage '80's and '90's spanking material came to be.

For links to this week's updates please go to the Home Page by clicking on "Chicago Spanking Review" at the top of this or any other Forum page. We've got a fair amount of material this week: Tiptopper contributed some scans and information about Diana Press, and I've created one new page and updated an old one. The Joe Shuster series continues - at least this week we have a M/F spanking to offer, and it's not bad. The Humorama Update as usual provides new information about a spanking cartoon we're already posted, in this case the first publication of one of Frank Beaven's. And Beaven is also featured in this week's Humorama Series entry, which is the last of their "fly-swatter" spankings. I put "fly-swatter" in quotes because our spanker leaves it on the table and spanks with his bare hand, to the delight of spanking purists everywhere I'm sure :) . Here are the details:
  • We continue our series on the spanking art of Joe Shuster with Girl For Sale, from Nights of Horror #4.
  • Tiptopper was good enough to send us the cover of the book Spanking Anecdota, along with some information on its publisher, Diana Press. This is one of the better sorority paddling-themed cover illustrations we've seen.
  • Humorama Update: We have two copies now of the first appearance of Frank Beaven's Tuesday Birthday Spanking in 1959. This birthday girl doesn't seem too upset at getting her birthday spanking two days early!
  • Humorama Series #131: One last fly-swatter spanking, and an unusual one, by Frank Beaven as our spanker leaves the fly-swatter on the table and applies the spanks by hand.

hi web-ed,

lots of interesting information about "Nights of Horror", about Shuster, Siegel and their financial situation and in general about the way things were done :D . you commented that the spankee is attractively positioned but doesn't seem to fit the spanker's lap very well and it seems to me that this is a pattern in all his spanking drawings that i have seen so far. also, he doesn't seem to be much interested in the spankee's face either. in this one we really can't see her face much at all and in the previous ones i could tell nothing about the spankee's expression even when her face was visible except the one where the teacher was caning his naughty student. in this drawing it also seems like her left arm is missing. i'll be waiting to see more of his work. i like the drawing on the cover of spanking Anecdota . it's interesting how the girls have their skirts tied up there although i would have preferred it if they had just dispensed with them entirely :lol: ........perhaps that came about later in the ceremony :D . more interesting information about Diana press and Nutrix. it sounds like it was more difficult to get this kind of material distributed back in those days. in the Frank Beaven almost your birthday spanking everyone seems to be having a good time :D............and no one cares about minor details like her exact birthday :lol: . they're probably happy because you were able to track down the first publication of this cartoon ;) . in the flyswatter spanking by Frank Beaven, again, everyone seems to be having a good time :D . of course, i had to go back and look at the other fly swatting toons first so thanks for going to the trouble of adding the links for all of those ;) . perhaps our spanker left the flyswatter on the table because he didn't want to kill that fly too soon :lol: . more good updates! thanks, phil

Hiya Web-ed:

Nice page today, in your "Weekly Updates." In the first cartoon, we see yet another of the Joe Shuster non-Superman pictures. And once again, the positioning of the spankee is more-or-less perfect. That is precisely how an OTK spankee should look, except for the fact she has no left arm. Wonder where it might be? :) However, while the spankee is perfectly positioned, the spanker is not. He should be holding his legs together, and allowing the lady to rest on his thighs so that her boobs are outside of his lap rather than awkwardly positioning them inside his own legs. Still, Shuster had great technique regarding shading, and here we can see that the shadows fall precisely where they would in real life, even those outside the spanking itself.

The Frank Beaven toon showing us a birthday spanking taking place on the "wrong" day is, as you say, a familiar meme in Spankoland. (I've put the word wrong in quote marks, because in reality NO day is a "wrong" day to spank.) Here, though, both parties are smiling, leading us to assume that this spanking is consensual. And I certainly approve of that. In fact, some of my favorite spank toons that I have drawn myself, show "Miss Johnson" happily grinning as she receives her smacks from one of her own former students.

The August 1959 toon by Beaven showing us another "swat the fly" spanking is a winner. Usually, in most toons that use this conceit, we surmise that the would-be spanker gets to land only one swat, for that's all it generally takes to slap an insect into the next world. Here, however, Beaven lets us eat our cake and have it too. He has his spankee positioned neatly across the guy's lap as he sits on a sofa, looking as if he's going to stay there a while and deliver a lengthy spanking. Meanwhile, the lady over his knee beams her approval as she takes the spanking, letting us know that she's in on the joke, too.

Good stuff, Web-ed.

Cheers,
Dan

I`m happy to see that you found a new artist Frank Beaven and looking at his drawings I can said great find! 8-) Seem that Mr. Beaven took the old fly swatter gag to a whole new level by having the guy place the lady across his knees just so he could have a clear shot at whacking that pesty fly ;) this is a way better version on the fly swatting gag very funny and sexy :lol: and looking at this drawing and reading the gag had me thinking as I saw the fly swatter on the table was it by chance a fly happen to land of the lady`s bottom or was it that the guy was really planning to use the swatter to spank her with in the first place :?: :lol: Great drawing good otk position ! love the large tight skirted rear of the spankee and her facial expression! and even though the spanker is spanking with the wrong hand this is a really great drawing!!!! Wish Mr. Beaven had drawn the spanker with the swatter in hand spanking her :lol: The other drawing from Beaven is also good love it when artists who draw spanking gives the female a big plump bottom it make the scene more enjoyable and a turnon! :) can`t blame the spanker for wanting to spank his lady`s tush two days early :lol: The over the knees in this drawing is just right with panty bottom up high ! also like that she have the day Tuesday written on her panty! :lol: don`t think the spanker saw that being he was to busy smiling as he spanking her rear! :lol:Good drawing :lol: This spanking drawing from Joe Shuster Night of Horror kinda reminds me of Eric Stanton meaning a pretty woman is being spanked by a big guy as another guy watches from behind! really twisted! love the way she is struggling with panty round her ankles! the over the knees isn`t great but this is still a good drawing from Mr. Shuster and I hope to see more! Last what better way to end this weeks spanking drawing with a spanking from a book cover! remember always loving those cover arts from the past too bad some of the stories wasn`t as good as the drawings! anyway the spankee is bent over nicely as she is about to be paddle by the other young woman plus I like the dunce cap she wearing! :lol: this is a good drawing like all book covers from the past 8-)

A great bunch of pics you've found this time!

I go along with Dan's assessment of this one. Everything about it looks really good except the position of the spanker's legs. I suspect that Shuster drew the girl first and added everything else later as an afterthought.
web-ed wrote:Tiptopper was good enough to send us the cover of the book Spanking Anecdota, along with some information on its publisher, Diana Press. This is one of the better sorority paddling-themed cover illustrations we've seen.
The two ladies were quite well-drawn, but I can't help thinking that it would've been better to have BOTH of then spanked by a pair of men!
web-ed wrote:Humorama Update: We have two copies now of the first appearance of Frank Beaven's Tuesday Birthday Spanking in 1959. This birthday girl doesn't seem too upset at getting her birthday spanking two days early!
I like Beaven's style, especially when he draws spanking cartoons. I had seen this one elsewhere, but once again, you've found a really good copy, and provided us with the history of its publication.
web-ed wrote:Humorama Series #131: One last fly-swatter spanking, and an unusual one, by Frank Beaven as our spanker leaves the fly-swatter on the table and applies the spanks by hand.
Wow! This is a great find! I've NEVER seen it anywhere else. Unlike the other Frank Beaven cartoon, this lady still has her nicely-rounded backside covered by her skirt, but it seems to be stretched to its limit, hugging her curves in a very enticing display. I think the man in the picture would be looking for ANY excuse, no matter how lame. to give this pretty lady a little swat... (and I think this must be the point of the gag!) And the fly is so cooperative, staying on her while he pulls her across his lap!

Weekly Updates for 03/22/2013

Post by web-ed »

Spring is Here, and to celebrate I have what I believe to be the only remaining Humorama spanking cartoon of Homer Provence (he did one for another publisher that wasn't M/F and which I won't be posting on CSR). This is one I had seen years ago but had forgotten about until Steve W. dug up its first appearance from 1960. It's Secretary Spanking #35, and I smile every time I think about 35 different secretaries :!: getting their bottoms warmed. And we have three more we'll be seeing in weeks to come! :)

The Humorama Series will be extended another month, by the way, as I've just discovered four more "spankers" rather unexpectedly (I knew of the existence of only one of them). I plan to continue the Joe Shuster series to its conclusion, then it will be all Humorama (including some special treats drawn by Tim and two articles written by me) until we reach the end, currently planned as #147. The start of Super-Spanking Summer III will probably be pushed back into June, but we'll manage somehow.

For links to this week's updates please go to the Home Page by clicking on "Chicago Spanking Review" at the top of this or any other Forum page.
  • We continue our series on the spanking art of Joe Shuster with Nights of Horror #6.
  • Humorama Update: Two new scans of Frank Beaven's Secretary Spanking #4 give us a better look at the art, and for the first time we know what the caption was.
  • Humorama Series #132: One last cartoon from Homer Provence in which a young lady doesn't even make it out of Secretarial School before she gets a shorthand spanking from her instructor. This is Secretary Spanking #35, and it's not yet the last time we're going to see a secretary receiving some good old-fashioned discipline!

A great bunch of updates this week!

The woman in the picture is quite attractive, but the man spanking her seems to be in a really uncomfortable position, bent over like that. This is an odd picture and the story, as you describe, is even odder... but I had seen the pictue somewhere else once before and was curious about it. Thank you for providing the background information and a a good scan.

I really like this one, and I'm glad you've posted such a good scan of it. Beavan was really skilled at making his women look cartoon-y... but still sexy! The only thing about it that bothers me a bit is the dark oval on the side of her panties. Was it just an ink spill? Was he trying to add a see-through spot and made the color too dark for her skin tone? I suppose we'll never know.

I vaguely recall seeing a really low-resolution copy of this somewhere, and I'm really happy to see such a good scan finally! We can clearly see the skeptical look on the woman's face and those cute little black lace panties that Homer seemed to enjoy drawing. A book used for a spanking implement seems to have been fairly common... especially in the comics... but if I had been in that teacher's place, I would've wanted to use my hand!
