A concept I’m noodling around with for my How Comics Were Made book that may become a core part of it: Until cartoonists began creating cartoons digitally with unlimited colors (within CMYK), there was no absolutely notion of a comic’s “true” color. Through the 1990s, comic strips were black and white art with added color, almost always for Sundays. Cartoonists used a restricted palette of colors & only saw the “real” color if they grabbed a newspaper that Sunday.
