In the early 1940s, Captain Marvel Junior artist Mac Raboy drew stock poses that he and other artists copied and reused while working on the comic strip. Since then, many cartoonists have used collages in their work. However, in the wrong hands, this short-cut technique can leave comic strips looking repetitive and dull. Today, with the advent of image-manipulation software, "found" images and stock poses can be used in a variety of imaginative ways without the need of scissors and paste.
