As you know, I love that repetition print! I have it hanging in my house. My only criticism of the remix by students is it looks like they combined Frank King and George Herriman in the first panel. I'm teaching a course on the history of comics now so I might refer back to this repetition comic. Actually, it would be a fun midterm question--identify these six styles.

Yes, and technically Gasoline Alley and Krazy Kat are newspaper strips, not "books". I love the inclusion of Raina but her rise to YA dominance occurred after I drew this comic.

Also, in defense of the students, I freely mixed Chris Ware and Dan Clowes in my last panel!
