Keep cool, fellows! As a reader I’m entitled to evaluation, just as every reader does after reading a book. And no, sorry, you don’t need to be a cartoonist to tell if you like a comic strip. Just check the faces out: Master Sedgewick simply never changes his face. The twins neither. Jarvis neither. Now, Mr Meddick has got a talent in drawing funny faces, especially if their eyes are hidden (think of Monty and Moondog). How good can a strip be with staring one-face characters?
Well, Mr Meddick, I don’t know how to put it, but listen, these Sedgwick-stories are really always poor stuff. Too much words for too little humour. Plautus (2nd century B.C.) already used to play with twins, and had more wit to it.
