Jim.

Firstly I remember now it's "John Thomas" that I was thinking about as a name that is used for male bits.

Mind you there are so many that vary from country to county I am sure you could write a book about them.

Well, as it is just you and your brain I thought I'd put this one up and also let you know it is not a jungle comic. But hang on! You are using a computer to do this I wonder which one? Are you an Apple guy?

No idea, Mark,
some teen title I would suppose. Looks kinda interesting, but not my best genre.

Nope, PC kinda guy. I run an Alienware M17x dual core i7 64 Bit lap(hah!)top with 8 GB of ram. My desktop is something else, but we won't go there. I have an Apple iPad and an iPod, but they're just for pictures and music. I was working on a file for the next issue of my magazine that was over a GB in Photoshop. Gots to whoop those bytes on down.

An extremely tough one, Mark,
You are to be commended (and cursed).

But I got it in TWO, too.

Now I have to get real tricky....

Okay, Clue #1:

and, in the tradition of recent hints, it's not a super-hero book.

Blimey you have some hardware there! I was giving some clues (computer make?) and also some of the other meanderings were a reference to the title. Rather clever I thought

Entirely TOO subtle for me, Mark,
"Winnie"= Windows? Oooookay...

I'm a picture kinda guy and I must confess to have never noticed the verbal clues you give until after you tell me about them (or after I've found the comic image).

Here's a second clue for you. Still not a super-hero comic.

No Dell=Computer and Winkle=... well let's just change the subject now.

I tell you what. Let's talk about Rin Tin Tin the world's most famous dog (see page 30) Bigbrain Billy and of course Hector.

See, you had to EXPLAIN it to me, Mark,
I would never have seen THAT connection, despite OWNING a Dell computer. While your clues may be too abstract, your skills at locating these covers is certainly not. For those who haven't made the connection (is anyone else even monitoring this thread?), the answer to my last quiz was http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/preview/index.php?did=5565&page=1l][/url]

I thought sure it was Henry Aldrich but I was obviously wrong. Mulitscene cover, tricky Jim.

Probably not my brightest idea to lead with the named continuing character head, narf,
and the multi-image aspect didn't seem to slow Mark down one iota.

Whatever happened to Brian? He started the game and then gradually disappeared. Still around, bminor?

I think this one should be a challenge.

sure wish you could make your scans larger, narf.

I have trouble seeing things that small. What's preventing you making them bigger?

I just do them at 100% and I could see it so I thought it was big enough. I will make the rest of the clues for this one at 3x
Here is a friend.

Thanks, narf.
What are you using to capture the pics? I can take a DCM cover and view at the width of my screen and it stays pretty sharp. Then I can do a screen capture and THAT stays pretty sharp. Like this:
http://www.bpib.com/temp/namethatcomic-19-2b.jpg
which is probably three times the same-size view of the comic. I am curious as to what approach you are taking that blurs the images so much. Maybe a different technique might help...?

Narf: "Quit shouting Bumpy! I know t's a bear! don't worry we won't hurt the little guy!"

Jim: Was that the start of a new one quiz? If so choosing Cisco Kid #1 a one shot from Baily Publishing Company really could be considered rather obscure!
