“Marlys’s Guide to School” and One Hundred Demons

Selections from Barry’s long running syndicated Ernie Pook’s Comeek are collected together in the book The Greatest of Marlys.7 The comic chronicles the adventures and mishaps of third grader Marlys, her teenaged sister Maybonne, and their brother Freddie, along with cousins, Arna Arneson and Arnold Arneson. Theresa Tensuan notes that

in the universe of Ernie Pook’s Comeek, the concerns of Arna and Arnold Arneson, and their cousins Maybonne, Marlys, and Freddie Mullen about school bullies, bug collections, and developing bustlines are framed by and refracted through their ongoing confrontations with adults whose collective indifference, prejudices, and random acts of violence outstrip the actions of the occasional open–minded teacher or the odd kind aunt.
