Kick back at the end of
work today and enjoy this triad of electronics-themed comics from 1963 and 1965 issues
of Radio &
Television News and Electronics World magazines. Other than an occasional
contest to create a caption for a comic drawing, when is the last time you saw a
comic in a technical magazine? Where has the humor gone? Is everyone so afraid of
offending someone that comics have been banned by lawsuit-fearful editors? You have
my invitation to create a good-humored cartoon about me or RF Cafe anytime you wish,
and I promise not to sue you. I'll even post it here on the website if you like. BTW, these comics
(hundreds in the links at the bottom of the page) make good fodder for opening your technical presentations.
I took the liberty of colorizing them.
