I read a lot of old donald duck comics as a kid. The European ones made by Italian Disney and Egmont. The strips from the 70s were absolutely wild in their colouring, with objects changing colour throughout the story and with a palette would fit right in with an acid trip. Only half of the pages were coloured to save money.
So in my experience you're right. It's a very normal thing for comics.
- anthk 6y agoDitto in Spain with the infamous Bruguera comics (Mortadelo y Filemon are as known in Spain as much as Don Quixote, if not more). Have an example: http://museodelcomic.triguerostudios.es/2018/05/la-escuela-bruguera/ http://museodelcomic.triguerostudios.es/2018/05/la-escuela-b... Later in the 90's the colours got right and with far more tones, and the old comic books has been reprinted at least twice, and a lot of reprinted volumes today have a much better colouring and inking. I mean, the exact same volumes, but with a far better colour pallete, a much bigger one.
