These are big cartoon data sites. 
They take time to load if you have a slow 
connection. 

Why? 

Well, it's a long story, but after VL critics began to

look more favorably and critically at P's
use of TV. See McHale's Zapping for example. 

But also see Eric Solomon's "Argument by Anachronism:
The Presense of the 1930's in VINELAND" 

"The 1930's, then represents for Pynchon the glorified
past of struggle and idealism. Trashed in the 1950s
by Hollywood anti-communists terror, the earlier
decade standss to represent a worth dream."

The essay is inTHE VINELAND PAPAERs. 

Note, Pierce was a cartoon man. It seems he liked 
crazy sue Dunhams (see "TSI" for Crazy 
Sue Dunham, and note that the Swift books, to give but
one example of the intricate play on 
pseudonyms and racism, were published under  a tripple
psedonym.   

Anyway, Adolf appears in severl cartoons, but not as a
horse. Cicero does not appear to be in 
cartoons.
