My big guy is Frank Lloyd. I really like the Prairie school. Falling Water is wild but I would not want it as my primary residence. I greatly admire Japanese simplicity and design re. castles and such. Frankly, and here I show my goth roots, I think the Winchester house is something else! Above all I like Jack London's Wolf house, what a shame about that. jacklondonpark.com/wolf-house/

I have been to that house a couple of times! It is
so cool! Hehe you've seen my art, so you know I love buildings
and setting and such. I enjoy Brutalism, and some of the experimental
60s stuff like Archigram and Archizoom. For mainstream architecture,
I love that wild 1890s and 1900s stuff, like the original Waldorf

All that effort and work for such a short time to be standing! Looks like a Winsor McCay drawing, or one of yours.

Right? I don't think they should ever have changed it, the
newer one is an eyesore by comparison. Ah, how I love McCay!

I love McCay too but finding pristine Little Nemo strips or Rarebit Fiend is hard. All the repros I grew up with had muddy plates, and his speech balloons are hard to read anyway and in dialect. Now I see a lot better stuff out there. Did you see the Antiques Roadshow where the guy found all the original McCay's in a shed, and the owners let him have them. Too much!

I have those Checker collections of Little Nemo and I
am pleased as punch with them! I like the comic reprints
that feel organic, where you can see variance in ink
saturation and such, as opposed to those ones where they
oversaturate the colors and you're blinded by dark blacks
and horrible electric blues.

Precisely the problem with our Nemo books, overwhelmed by blue, not easy to read anyway.

I keep a magnifying glass on hand at all times I keep looking for a font that approximates McCay's writing in the talk bubbles

Why, is it identifiable? The early Felix the Cats were proven to have really been the work of Pat Sullivan by his handwriting. There was some doubt.

It's weird with those various properties where
the author is in question.

You see it quite a bit with those dime novels and penny dreadfuls
I'm always digging for

I imagine so. A plethora of possible writers.

And on some of the later stuff, you get series written
under house names with changing authors.

Kenneth Robeson was one of those. Seems like it was a common practice. I could see how that could cause trouble. Dickens early newspaper career is like that since he got no credit.

Oh yes, I've tried a couple of Doc Savages and read
Lester Dent's zeppelin stories. Dickens! On that subject,
I just got a penny dreadful by Thomas Peckett Prest, who
made his career with parodies of Dickens, right down to
aping his pen-name of that time. Dickens once complained
to a British publisher that their series had ripped off one of
his works and the publisher said they'd got the idea by
ripping off an American serial.

So I have to be careful when buying a "Bos" publication? I have a true crime/sociology book entitled The Italian Boy, about the activities of men who supplied cadavers for medical schools. A more horrific life than poor urban London would be unimaginable. Dickens covered the trial of the 3 convicted of killing a poor friendless orphan and selling his body, but his name is nowhere on the articles. Elements of that trial pop up in some of his later books.
Prest- Many Dickens parodies. Co-author, Varney and Sweeney Todd. Dead at 49, doesn't look a day over 83. Talented musician.

Well, I think Prest went with "Boz", to be just close
enough. Say, didn't that get turned into "The Flesh and The
Fiends" or something like that, with Donald Pleasance as
one of the body-snatchers / body-makers?
Yes! I had Varney already
The new one is:
"Vileroy, or The Horrors of Zindorf Castle"
