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.

Saturday Matinee – The Flying Sailor, Swamp Ratz & Lonnie Brooks

The Flying Sailor (2022) is a short film by Amanda Forbis & Wendy Tilby:
“In 1917 two ships collided in the Halifax Harbour, causing the largest accidental explosion in history. Among the tragic stories of the disaster is the remarkable account of a sailor who, blown skyward from the docks, flew a distance of 2 kilometres before landing uphill, naked and unharmed. The Flying Sailor is a contemplation of his journey.”
