The Green Lizard fights racism and fascism!

I can't stop laughing. The always brilliant Bite Me Comics (thanks to Pamela) has given us one for the ages: "The Green Lizard," fighting a threat so dark, so evil, so hidden, that only he can see it!

If anything out-Alinskys Alinsky, this is it -- and bravo: it is high time that the voices of sanity and reason started fighting back.

The conceit here is that Charles Johnson, the Green Lizard, is showing one of his skeptical minions the rampant racism and fascism that goes on at the blogs he hates -- racism and fascism that are, of course, in the Green Lizard's head and there only. here is a sample (click on the images to see larger versions), and be sure to read the whole thing:

Oh give poor Charlie a break. He's got the same bug that most of us in the West suffer: the hyper-racism bug. One had to guffaw at the announcement upon Obama's election that America was post-racial.

Turnspeak, hyper-racial is more like it. The examples abound.

*** 92:8 ***

But Chuck ain't so funny. Neither is Hoops. Or Al Sharpton or Bill Ayers or Jesse Jackson or Prez Barack Hussein Obama or his ingrate wife Michelle.

These racists are effective racists, unlike the rednecks wearing sheets late at night in the woods, who never were able to exert much political clout.

Our nation is much, much safer now that it is protected by the Green Lizard.

Lololololololololololol!

Good lordie, lordie I'm still laughing!!

And drawn in fine fashion after the Sgt Rock comics I remember and loved so well.

Upding!

Keep those cartoons coming...

Green Lizards and ancient wisdom...
Green Lizards don't fight racism...They eat flies...They live under logs, and rocks...They have a forked tongue and stick it out a lot...If you ever see a Green Lizard fighting racism, you are looking at a fake...An original reproduction...A fake Green Lizard does not eat flies, but a lot of flies hang out with him...
If you put a mirror in front of a fake Green Lizard, it will fall in love with itself and attempt to mate...Now 'that' would make a great Green Lizard cartoon...

Wow, thanks for posting, LOL

Good stuff! ...hahaha!

Hilarious—I like that only original quotes are used for the "overheard" talk at "JihadWatch headquarters" and "Atlas Shrugs headquarters"—and yet the "Green Lizard" still sees them as Nazis!

What is the original art from? It seems to be *too* spot on to be anything but an example of a "golden age" (1940s) comic—although likely a very obscure one. I certainly don't recognize the "Green Lizard" character.

Whoever the adaptive artist at Bite Me Comics is, he is brilliant—the text works with the existing balloons, and yet is utterly absurd!

Looks like we have another cartoonist—joining Bosch Fawstin (Pigman), Cox and Forkum (political cartoonists), Bruce Tinsley (Mallard Fillmore), Dave Washburn (Jihad Watch Awards) and a handful of other artists and cartoonists in the fight against Jihad. Excelsior!

It is an old mid 1940's comic character called 'The Green Llama'.

I use Golden Age public domain comics, and modify them as appropriate - removing things, changing things around, edit panels as necessary, and create a storyline that tries to work with the art, while getting the message across.

Also, thank you Mr. Spencer - you and Pam have been good sports. I was really concerned with how Pam would react to being portrayed as Hitler. I'm glad the point was easily seen, and it was taken in the spirit which was intended. :)

ROTFLMAO!!!

Upding, upding, upding x 100!!!!!!!!!


Cheers

Very funny.

BTW, SpiritWolf, Sgt. Rock was drawn by Joe Kubert, a decent comic artist, not like the dreck that this blogger has breathed new life into.

:) POint taken. My problem is, I haven't even seen a comic book in at least 25 years or so. I just have fond memories of the ones I did like as a kid (mostly horror comics, as well as Sgt Rock and the Unknown Soldier. Wasn't really big on the superheroes.)

Charlie is totally unhinged. Nothing he does makes any sense except to him. He is a pathetic drama queen and attention whore who's lost the plot.

I think the best is not to give him any oxygen.

Priceless!

I've always said, the remarkable diversity of opinion in the comments at LGF is proof positive of Charles' open-mindedness and the integrity of the free-spirits who have found a home there....;-)

Just to set the record straight, the illustrator of the cover and interior pages of this Green Lama story was Mac Raboy, an excellent and highly regarded artist, best known for his kinetic and striking work on wartime Captain Marvel, Jr. comic books. Green Lama was a short lived title, issued by Spark Publications. The character was created by Raboy, and the issue shown and cleverly altered here was, I believe, the last for this title. The story in its original form was a serious morality tale, written to show how a white GI's hostility toward black GIs mirrored Hitler's views. The Green Lama whisks the offending GI off to ruined Berlin, and then to Hitler's mountaintop redoubt to hear directly how Hitler still hopes to win the war by fomenting divisions between Christians and Jews and whites against blacks. Enraged, the GI comes out of hiding and socks Hitler in the jaw before being flown back to base by the Green Lama. Thoroughly chastened, the GI now seeks to befriend the black soldiers he had previously reviled and shunned.
My father was a comic book illustrator from the end of 1941 until 1954-55, and this issue of Green Lama was in his possession since before I was born. I still have it, but it's in very poor, brittle condition. I am reasonably sure my father assisted Raboy on this issue, perhaps pencilling the story or doing roughs. He typically kept copies of the comic books he illustrated. Joe Kubert is an undeniably fine illustrator, but I am confident that, if asked, he would know of Raboy's work, and would agree that it was exceptional.

Thanks for that!

I guess it is a matter of taste, but for me there was Marvel's Kirby, and Ditko, and DC's Kubert,and Gill Kane.

Sorry for being a comic book chauvanist.


Have you noticed how many comic artists were from Jewish families? -- Kirby, Kubert, Bob Kane , Jerry Siegel, Eisner.

Never the ones to miss out on a good thing, now even the cartoonphobic Muslims have superhero comics.

Wouldn't be funny if in the future we see Muslims claiming to have invented the comic strip?

Thanks for setting the record straight.

A work of art. It will leave a mark.

selrahC admire the poop stain you have made of your life.

There is a lesson to learn here.

livingengine:

Thanks for your comments. Yes, many comic book illustrators were indeed Jewish, including Mac Raboy and my father. And let's not forget Bob Kane, Batman's creator. I don't believe that (Steve) Ditko is Jewish, however.
I had forgotten about the JW post you cite that appeared this past July. That DC Comics's president, from his name evidently Jewish, is partnering with a Kuwaiti outfit to whitewash Islam is cringeworthy but hardly surprising given today's dhimmitude-promoting political climate. Did you note the significance of the name of the team of Muslim superheroes, - the 99? This, undoubtedly, refers to the Muslim belief that there are 99 names for God. But it seems to me that al-Mutawa, their creator, in choosing this designation, may be putting himself in a very dangerous position, where he may be declared guilty of shirk, since he is associating others, superpowered or not, with Allah. This, of course, is a capital offense. Whoops.
My last point - while Muslims are well-known for taking credit for all sorts of things, I don't think they would dare to co-opt the comic book as an Islamic invention. A genuinely Islamic comic book would have to entirely lack any representational art. Now that would be a challenge, indeed.

Johnson has always struck me as a sick ego.

Maybe he needs an exorcist. Send Father Hugh of the Order of the OutdoorCats to douse him with sweet reason, to stop his furniture from dancing, his head from twisting.

In any case, we are all very finite beings with infinite needs. We think we will find the infinite in another person (Johnson realizes that, as did Jim Jones). Johnson thinks he's found the infinite in the mirror. He's sure to be disappointed. It will be worse for those who "look up" to him.

For most of us ordinary guys, alas, we are humble, more earthy, and find brief solace in looking at Pamela while we wait for the infinite. We are not disappointed.

Racedetective and Commonsense, thank you so much for the background. I am writing and illustrating a graphic novel, and consider myself fairly knowledgeable about superhero comics—but I had never seen "the Green Lama".

This sounds like a great message in the original Raboy story—and kudos to you, Racedetective, for using the material to send another important message. That it is hilarious gets extra points.

I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work!

I loved everything about this: the off registration color, the crazy Hitler face, but especially the writing which was tight, and kept me going "What the. . . " from one panel to the next.

The whole thing hangs together, and is very entertaining.

Please do it again.

" SMOKIN' HOT CHICK ? " ...

Ah! No good !

BLAZIN' BOILIN' LAVA !

That's better!...

One final comment re Johnson:

He kind of reminds me of Bernie Madoff in his approach. One has to be approved in order to be fleeced by this sick ego with his needs for attention. "Attention must be paid."

As a member of the Order of the OutdoorCats, Charley can ask my permission to post on his site. (My hunch is that he's a very controlling person with a lot of insecurities.)

Permission denied.

"Wouldn't be funny if in the future we see Muslims claiming to have invented the comic strip?" -- livingengine

You mean it wasn't? I'm shocked, shocked I tell ya!

The comic strip was absolutely hilarious! Anyone from here reading it would instantly recognize the every single thing in it.

And yes, upding x100, too. (OT: Does anyone else miss the old IntenseDebate system that JW used to have? It had upding and downding capabilities. I miss that, plus the way the comments were organized made it much easier to browse comments, and to set up an email notification in case someone replied to one of your comments, even if it was a week old. There were some spectacularly long threads that developed in those days, one even approaching 500, IIRC. The overall volume of comments seems to have dropped, by at least half I'd say, since going back to the old system.)

................

Yes—I miss it, too. It seemed both more intimate and more immediate, and it was easier for posters to address each other's comments.

I also miss seeing what avatars posters picked—often very illuminating!

I do believe the format helped spur debate. Very often I don't find a comment on one of my posts these days until it is far too late to reply—and I'm sure I miss some entirely if I don't revisit that thread.

Still, I do understand the need for the change—toward the end, IntenseDebate broke down entirely, perhaps because it couldn't handle the huge load of comments.
