	Buster (comic) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Buster was a long-running British comic (28 May 1960 - 4 January 2000) which carried a mixture of humour and adventure strips, although the latter genre would become a rarer occurrence as the comic went on.
		Buster often referred to his father who was seen in the comic attempting to find a gas leak in three frames of the 18th June 1960 issue.
		Buster's mum was often referred to by name and was consistently drawn to resemble Andy's wife Flo.

	PART I: A Vaudeville Childhood
		As Buster grew old the easiest way to care for him and not interrupt the act was to take him on the stage with them, and so this was done.
		"Buster" does not give the impression of having been taught; his work is so spontaneous and so accurate that it shows him to be above the average performer of his age in intelligence and indicates that he understands the value of pause and emphasis as well or better than many a performer of mature years.
		Buster, like the rest of the world, was enthralled with Houdini's act, often watching him from the wings or even from up above in the flies to try to figure out Houdini's secrets.

	ImageTexT -- Review of Comic Strips and Consumer Culture by Ian Gordon -- Joshua Paddison
		This story of comic strips' birth in the 1890s as a tool to sell newspapers is the first chapter of Gordon's wide-ranging inquiry into the relationship between early comics and America's emergent consumer culture.
		Buster Brown's popularity, according to Gordon, lay in his "polysemic" nature—he was specific enough to be recognizable but generic enough to appeal to different groups of Americans.
		How comic strips presented consumer capitalism is a rich and fascinating topic that Gordon probably should have turned into a separate study, comparing multiple comics over time and reprinting far more daily strips than the meager three presented here.

	The Narrative-Machine: Buster Keaton's Cinematic Comedy, Deleuze's Recursion Function and the Operational Aesthetic
		Buster Keaton's two-reeler My Wife's Relations (1922) is prefaced by an intertitle which reads: “In the foreign section of a big city – where so many different languages are spoken, the people misunderstand each other perfectly...” Following this, alternate montage connects two utterly disconnected situations.
		While Deleuze himself is loathe to specify the role of the comic performer or the comedic in the discussions of cinematic comedy in either of his Cinema books (5), this essay explores the connection between the aesthetic that he identifies as specifically Keatonesque and the humorous quality of Keaton's narratives.
		The subordination of the comic to narrative, or of the possibility of the comic replacing logical causality with surprise, fate, chance, luck, etc., or of slapstick existing as a non-narrative kind of cinematic attraction are the most vehemently debated questions by theorists of cinematic comedy.
