The Outbursts of Everett True

The Outbursts of Everett True (originally titled A Chapter from the Career of Everett True) was a two-panel newspaper comic strip created by A.D. Condo and J.W. Raper that began in 1905; it ran until 1927, when Condo was obliged to abandon it for health reasons.

Two contemporary collections appeared in 1907 and 1921, and it was the Newspaper Enterprise Association's "most popular feature". Subsequently, however -- aside from guest appearances in Alley Oop in 1969 -- the strip was largely forgotten until 1983. When one of the collections was reprinted that year, comic book writer Tony Isabella and various artists employed the character in a new strip for the Comics Buyer's Guide and The Comics Journal. In this modernization, Everett True directed his outbursts at comic book artists, writers, publishers and distributors.

Famous quotes containing the word true:

    The only coöperation which is commonly possible is exceedingly partial and superficial; and what little true coöperation there is, is as if it were not, being a harmony inaudible to men. If a man has faith, he will coöperate with equal faith everywhere; if he has not faith, he will continue to live like the rest of the world, whatever company he is joined to.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
