| 释义 |
Mr. Skygack, from Mars was a comic strip by the American cartoonist A.D. Condo. It appeared in the Chicago Day Book, a Chicago working-class newspaper, from 1907 to 1917 in about 400 comic strips and single panels.[1] Like much of Condo's work in this period, the Mr. Skygack feature was syndicated and appeared in many other papers, including The Seattle Star,[2] The Milwaukee Journal, The Spokane Press, The Pittsburgh Press, The Tacoma Times and The Duluth Daily Star. The comic followed the titular Mr. Skygack, a Martian, on his mission to study humans. Mr. Skygack's comical misunderstandings of Earthly affairs gave Condo the opportunity to comment on and criticize social norms.[1][3] Skygack subsequently appeared in Condo's ethnic-humor comic strip Osgar und Adolf.[4] Mr. Skygack, from Mars is considered the first science fiction comic,[5] featuring the first extraterrestrial character in comics history. It also gave rise to the first recorded sci-fi cosplay when a Mr. William Fell was reported wearing a Mr. Skygack costume to a 1908 masquerade.[1]References1. ^1 2 {{cite news|last=Miller|first=Ron|title=Was Mr. Skygack the First Alien Character in Comics?|url=http://io9.com/was-mr-skygack-the-first-alien-character-in-comics-453576089|accessdate=20 September 2013|newspaper=io9|date=19 September 2013}} 2. ^{{cite news |title=Mr. Skygack From Mars |url=http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn87093407/1907-10-15/ed-1/seq-4/|newspaper=The Seattle Star |date=15 October 1907 |page=4}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83045487/1912-02-10/ed-1/seq-26/ |title=Who's Who in the Comics |first=Fred |last=Schaefer |publisher=The Day Book |date=February 10, 1912 |pages=26-27}} 4. ^World Wide Words: Bee's Knees, by Michael Quinion; published no later than 7 April 2010 (date of earliest version, on archive.org, of page containing relevant information); retrieved 23 February 2014 5. ^Mr. Skygak, From Mars, at the Filson Historical Society, by Michael Veach; published 28 September 2010; retrieved 9 December 2013 External links
