That&#8217;s right, <a href="http://theitchblog.com/">Craig Yoe</a>, has declared that today, the fourth Friday of September, shall forever more be celebrated as <strong>FANTASTIC FELIX FRIDAY!</strong> <em>&#8220;Why?&#8221;</em>, you may ask. Well, the answer is obvious &#8211; to commemorate the release of Craig&#8217;s latest gift to kids!<br />

<p>
Craig has asked several comic bloggers (see list below) to kick this event, the very first, <strong>FANTASTIC FELIX FRIDAY!</strong>, off with a <b>BANG!!!</b> So to that end, Craig has generously allowed, and even supplied, stories from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Felix-Cats-Greatest-Comic-Tails/dp/1600107052/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_2"><strong>Felix the Cat: The Great Comic Book Tails</strong></a> to be previewed on our blogs!!! Does Craig know the art of promotion, or what?!!<br />
<br />
So without further ado, here is the story, <b><em>ROBOTERIA</em></b> from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Felix-Cats-Greatest-Comic-Tails/dp/1600107052/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_2"><strong>Felix the Cat: The Great Comic Book Tails</strong></a> for you to enjoy.<br />

Wasn&#8217;t that great?!! Now, just think. That was only 8-pages in a 224-page, large format, hardbound book, that collects some wonderful stories from the 1940s and 50s Felix the Cat comic book series!!! <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Felix-Cats-Greatest-Comic-Tails/dp/1600107052/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_2"><strong>Felix the Cat: The Great Comic Book Tails</strong></a> is a fantastic effort from Craig Yoe. </p>
<p>The term genius is thrown about so carelessly today that it has lost all its impact. That being said, after you read the 184 pages of comics in <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Felix-Cats-Greatest-Comic-Tails/dp/1600107052/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_2"><strong>Felix the Cat: The Great Comic Book Tails</strong></a> you will certainly find that the word &#8220;genius&#8221; doesn&#8217;t even come close to describing the art and career of <a href="http://lambiek.net/artists/m/messmer_o.htm">Otto Messmer.</a></p>
<p>If you remember the fun TV show, <a href="http://felixthecat.com/">Felix the Cat</a> produced by Otto Messmer&#8217;s at one time, assistant, incredible cartoonist, and heir to Felix the Cat, <a href="http://lambiek.net/artists/o/oriolo_joseph.htm">Joe Oriolo, </a> and loved it as I did, then pick up this book and read the brilliant stories from Felix&#8217;s original creator, Otto Messmer. Read them to your children, or to yourself. Have your children read them to you, or to themselves. </p>
<p>So have a <strong>FANTASTIC FELIX FRIDAY!!!</strong> Click now to order your copy of <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Felix-Cats-Greatest-Comic-Tails/dp/1600107052/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpi_2"><strong>Felix the Cat: The Great Comic Book Tails</strong></a>, then go to these blogs to enjoy more fantastic Felix comics.</p>
