   I’m not 100% sure, but I think the novel was David Copperfield. David (if that’s who it was) joins a company that doesn’t pay young people, but the good thing, according to another young man working for free, is that “you get to look around.” He’s wasn’t quite sure what he’ was looking for, but at least he could look. Apparently mid-19th Century Britain was a third world country.

   Barry, to me it looks more like the helmet of the Earth-2 Flash (Jay Garrick), the “Original” Flash of the 1940s, although the wings are a little high.

   I think that is Tillie the Toiler in full color in the first panel. Is that her husband Mac in between the two guys waving their hands behind her? He had one of the strangest hair styles in the comics.

   Yes, the guy in the derby and the bow tie is Moon Mullins. I am wondering about the fellow in the upper left with the brown hair sticking out. He kind of looks like Tillie the Toiler’s boy friend and eventual husband Mac, although Mac was a short little guy. Is the flapper on the other side of the room supposed to be Tillie?

   It’s kind of hard to imagine that someone with a sweet, old-fashioned name like “Jenny” could be capable of such perfidy. Still, I think this situation would make for a memorable episode of “Who the Bleep Did I Marry?”

    Not that it matters very much, but I think the official definition of PDA is public display of affection. A personal display of affection kind of sounds like playing with yours— oh, never mind.
