But did she ever appear in comic books? Well, yes.

Gilda, like all the cast of the second season of SNL, appeared in this unlikely-to-ever-be-reprinted (so look for it in backissue racks!) Spider-Man comic!

A lovely thing about their weird and wonderful book is that Claremont gave every cast member (plus Lorne Michaels) a spotlight scene, and here's Gilda as Weekend Update commentator Emily Litella (along with Jane Curtin).
Take a bow, Gilda and Company!
Gilda, you are very much loved and very much missed.

Happy birthday, Gilda Radner!
I'll bet the rest of the cast was in those panels before Vinnie got his mitts on them.
ReplyDeleteThe first story was definitely not inked by Vinnie who had a clean line. See the Gilda story which WAS inked by Colletta.
