Just arrived -- a big load of new Gordo Sunday strips from the 70s-80s! These Sundays represent the bold, dynamic colors and shapes that typified the strip's last two decades, and which were underrepresented in my collection up until now. Looking forward to scanning these!

A stack of Gordo Sunday strips from the 1970s and 1980s, displaying the bright colors and dynamic shapes which typified the era.
Gordo, Senor Dog and Popo the Rooster are shocked by jagged red, black and yellow lines, indicating a shocking burst of noise and energy.
Poosy Gato bemoans: "I'm a victim of a frightening biological aberration -- Audible Conscience!"
Trailing Arbutus searches through Gordo's house for his reluctant playmate, Poosy Gato, whom he finds hiding in a drawer.

These latter strips have a lot of the same elements I recognize from Bill Watterson.
