Here are a few more tech-themed comics from
vintage
editions (1962 and 1970) of Popular Electronics magazine. The first comic with the
transistors and fuse is really clever, IMHO. It was one of the "Parts Talk"
series. The other two are directed toward
amateur radio operators, but you don't need to be one to appreciate the humor. There is a hyperlinked list at the
bottom of the page of most of the other comics I've posted over the years. It's
a shame that comics rarely appear in contemporary technical magazines - probably
too afraid of offending someone. Comics with Electronics Theme
