The Outbursts of Everett True
The Outbursts of Everett True was an American two-panel newspaper comic strip created by A.D. Condo and J. W. Raper that ran from July 22, 1905 to January 13, 1927. It followed this setup:
Panel 1: Someone annoys Everett True.
Panel 2: He yells at and/or physically punishes whoever annoyed him.
Everett True also stood up for those who were being bullied, and often received smiles of approval from nearby observers. His wife never put up with his belligerence, and would hurl pots, pans and sometimes his supper at him if he mouthed off at home.
