About the artist, Gustave Verbeek, he drew 64 of these strips, one a week for a little over a year from October 11, 1903, to January 15, 1905!

You can view 41 of these strips online, with a handy image rotator, at https://library.osu.edu/discover/#%2Fdc%3Fquery=%22lovekins%22&size=100

Warning: Some strips have stereotypes that wouldn't be acceptable by today's standards, for example the strip "The Negro and the Watermelon"

That writing in the center panel is kind of mind blowing. A very interesting idea for a comic.
