When the crossing of the Delaware History Bluff ran on GoComics, I had several nice comments on it. Readers laughed at the motor boat. I sometimes add little 'easter eggs' in the background for fun.
The 'dollar across the Potomac' bluff got a few readers to write back about how this should be in the History books. One of the nicest compliments a historical cartoonist can receive.
Inspired by a FAR SIDE cartoon of WASHINGTON CROSSING THE STREET.
One of the comments I received about a dozen times when I was posting HISTORY BLUFFS on Comics Sherpa's site was 'what's the page curl in the bottom right-hand corner of most of your panels'. The answer is simply, it's the 'turning the pages of history' symbol.
