Outbursts of Everett True

A two-panel gag strip featuring the volatile Everett True, whose hair-trigger temper erupts over trivial social infractions. The first panel shows True confronting a man about Harry's behavior at the Titanic Club; the second captures his explosive reaction when challenged. The strip exemplifies early newspaper comic conventions: recurring character types, visual hyperbole (True's hair standing on end), sequential panel storytelling, and speech balloons advancing both gag and plot. *Outbursts of Everett True* ran as a daily and Sunday feature, reflecting the rapid evolution of comics as a mass medium through which artists developed the visual language—panel borders, expressive linework, exaggerated anatomy—that would define the medium for generations.
