10-5-2025 #CoffeeAndComics "THE COMPLETE BETTY BROWN, PH.G. HER FULL STORY, 1934-1948" Not only entertaining but educational. When Tom Heintjes, the founder of Hogan's Alley Magazine , announced this last year I was really intrigued. 100% glad I bought it. Will read & re-read it many times! #comics

6-29-2025 #CoffeeAndComics CHARLIE CHAPLINS: "THE GOLD RUSH" (1925 & 1942) Not a comic book but a movie by a great comic. This film turned 100 years old on June 26, 2025! I've watched it at least 100 times and it never gets old. Genius and timeless cinema. #CharlieChaplin #TheGoldRush100
