My, oh my, oh my ... how times have changed! I'm glad Mr. True got his umbrella back! Awesome, entertaining stuff and THANK YOU for the upload, lyons! ... and Mrs True was as tough as him!

Very stylish artwork but a curious one-joke idea: Mr. True becomes angry and physically violent when someone displeases him in ANY way. Apparently the laws against assault weren't strictly enforced in 1906 (even when he attacks a policeman!). It's amusing to see a string of turnabout-is-fair-play when his wife does the same thing to him, starting around page 61.

A great character! I bet we've all known someone like that. I hope, for his sake, he also had a friendlier side we haven;t seen (the old curmudgeon!).
Nice artwork and inkwork! I LOVE the drawing style of the newspaper and magazine one-panel cartoon strips of the 1890s through 1910s.

Well, I'm only at page 28 and I think he's just about right with everything.
