Blondie's Maiden Name
Interesting in this, the first Blondie movie, we see Blondie's mother, Mrs. Miller, and sister, Dot Miller.
In the comic strip, Blondie was originally a flapper girl, much like Betty Boop, who crossed paths with the young high society lad, Dagwood Bumstead.
If Dagwood continued pursuing the wild Blondie, then his rich family would disinherit him.
Like Wallis Simpson and Prince Edward, love conquered all.
Dagwood married Blondie and his family cut all financial ties to him.
Their loss. Dagwood continues today in the comics and they also did the mvoies, of course, and endless tv appearances.
But Blondie's maiden name wasn't Miller.
She was Blondie Boopadoop.
Domesticity worked more for the former Miss Boopadoop than it did for Betty Boop of course, who never saw her fame go as high as it was when she was her old racy self.
A third party girl of the comic strips was Fritzi Ritz.
Fritzi would have her neice, Nancy, visit her once and Nancy literally took off with the strip, much like a sailor named Popeye would do with the brother and sister strip involving Olive Oyl and Castor Oyl.
Nancy would later be joined by her buddy, Sluggo, and on the rarest occassion, we would glimpse her Aunt Fritzi.
