Gasoline Alley by Jim Scancarelli for March 05, 2010

I still think we all understand that Frank Buckles is real and Walt is fictional. Jim knows that, too. I don’t see anyone comparing them. I see Jim honoring and promoting awareness of Frank Buckles by acknowledging his status in a venerable comic stip. None of us knows how Frank Buckles feels about these mentions. I hope he enjoys them, and that he’s a fan of the strip. I doubt he considers himself such a “sacred cow” that no one should portray his likeness or note his story in a work of fiction, especially one as big-hearted as Gasoline Alley. That there’s my honest opinion.
