  Contemporary Dutch Comics
Another popular comics creation of the past decade is 'Fokke and Sukke', cartoons about a canary and duck who give their vision and opinion on virtually everything.
Comic artists of the newer generation often have to fight to establish themselves, and only a few are able to make a living by just creating comics.
Another new phenomenon in Dutch comics are the more "artful" comics, such as the experimental publications by Stefan van Dinther and Tobias Schalken, and the wordless, panels of 'Gutsman' by Erik Kriek.

 Profiles 48 - Educational Comics (Dec 2001)
In the educational comic, we encounter a form devised to explore what conventional comics traditionally overlooked; we find a face of the medium that attempts to bring into comics the virtues of a literary and scientific culture that infrequently populate most of the comics units sold throughout the history of the format.
Comics, after all, had suffered hostile scrutiny from their inception at the end of the 19th century, and, today, in the 21st century, have never completely escaped it.
As the comic book became evidently inevitable as a shaper (some might say, "corrupter") of youth, rational minds conceived its potential as a delivery vehicle for the kind of dense literature that concerned observers frequently felt comics-reading pushed out of the limited window that young people, in their finite leisure time, had for reading.

 Fredric Wertham
Latterday American comics fans, who look back at the anti-comics crusade with fear and loathing, and fret nervously over whether it might happen again, tend to ignore the point that comics publishers of the early '50s virtually cut their own throats.
Comic books were still relatively mild in 1947 when Dr. Wertham began his crusade, but some publishers lost all restraint into the 1950s, running increasingly violent and gory stories that only confirmed everything he said.
He seemed to only reluctantly acknowledge comic books and science fiction as the source of fanzines and fandom, and gave a couple of the most skewed capsule histories of the genres I've ever seen, concentrating on their anti-war and non-violent aspects.

 Dutch Comics History through the 1980's
Comic artist Jan Kruis had created a family, consisting of father Jan, mother Jans and daughters Karlijn and Catootje, that resembled not only his own family but most Dutch families.
These comics were definitely influenced by the international comics scene, where more mature comics had emerged.
He produced many comics, such as 'Pardon Lul', 'Eikels', 'Dirk and Desirée Tweekeerbellen', which continue to amuse a crowd of fans with their rude and often absurd humor.

 WorldWide Religious News-Fighting the three Cs: Cults, Comics, and Communists The
Laws and administrative measures against comics were passed between 1949 and 1955 in several countries, from Belgium to Korea, and the anti-American theme was strong even among such prominent American allies as the United Kingdom and Canada[2].
Frankfurt theorists did notice comics at a quite early stage, and focused their criticism on the two most popular genres in the 1930s and 1940s: superhero and horror comics.
After the early platinum age (a prehistory of sort for comics), modern comics were born in the 1930s with the predecessors of the companies still dominating the market today.

 SIGMUND AND THE SEA MONSTERS - The Complete First Season
SIGMUND was the invention of Sid and Marty Krofft, the two producers behind such staples of kids TV as H.R. and their most memorable creation, LAND OF THE LOST.
SIGMUND is truly a product of its time, a bizarre blending of pre-teen sitcom hijinks, surfer musical and fantasy escapism made in the years just prior to Colonel Steve Austin falling back to Earth and being bionically rebuilt for prime time network television.
All 17 episodes from the first season of SIGMUND are presented in truly fantastic video quality; I'm not sure if the episodes were cleaned up or cut from a new master, but they look as bright as their first day of broadcast.

 Jeet Heer, "Daniel Clowes"
In the just-released issue of his irregularly published comic book Eightball, Clowes offers a long story titled “The Death Ray”, which treats the origins of a superhero with the same clinical detachment that Freud brought to his case histories.
The most recurrent relationships in Clowes’s comics are tight, almost, claustrophobic friendships and love triangles that erupt into violence and sometimes murder).
For some of his earlier work, particularly the Pussey stories, Clowes was accused of being a hectoring and mean-spirited artist, coldly dismissive of superheroes while being unable to understand their appeal.

Not only should these comics find their way into your mostly adult kids hands (come on, with what kids deal with today a little reality with sarcasm can’t hurt as much the fantasy worlds being pushed on them through reality TV), they should be in colleges nation wide and libraries everywhere.
This comic shows what Scott McCloud has been talking about for over ten years – that comics have yet to reach their full potential and have a place in more than the back of kids pockets, or tightly sealed away in plastic are board.
While this comic may not be the easiest thing to find, it is in the current issue of Previews and there is a rumor that issue 1 is going to see a second printing.

 Comic Book Resources - CBR News: Grant Morrison Talks With Fans at Meltdown Hollywood
Characterizing the sixty year old American icon as a God and kind of solar consciousness, Morrison simultaneously lamented the loss of Superman's "human connection," citing with great praise the work of legendary DC Comics editor Mort Weisinger, whose personal issues Morrison felt were overtly reflected in the pages of the books Weisinger edited.
Of course, this is Grant Morrison, and this was Comic-Con, and if you're Grant Morrison and you have a Superman experience like that you're absolutely bound to have a Bizarro encounter as well, which Morrison did at a Comic-Con just a few years later.
Once again, the comic pros engaged the man (again, presumably a convention-goer in costume and makeup) in conversation, but this time with far less desirable results.

 Justice Society Profile: Wonder Woman   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
In Les Daniels' DC Comics: Sixty Years of the World's Favorite Comic Book Heroes, Mayer is quoted as saying, "Marston's idea of feminine supremacy was the ability to submit to male domination." A greater source of controversy between the two men was the bondage imagery that appeared more and more frequently as the series progressed.
Wertham believed Wonder Woman to be a "phallic woman," the fantasy image which Sigmund Freud theorised little boys have of a woman with a hidden penis, who not only behaves much like a man, but who also wishes to deprive men of their manhood.
Largely due to Wertham's attacks, the Comics Code Authority was formed to enforce, in the words of the industry, "the most stringent code in existence for any communications media (sic)." With regards to Wonder Woman, the current of feminism that had once run so strong throughout the comic strip vanished for nearly two decades.
