cartoon jargon

Hello everyone,

Words used to describe the conventions of comic strip drawing were around before Mort Walker wrote his 1964 article "Let's Get Down to Grawlixes" - a satirical spoof for the National Cartoonists' Society. In 1980, his "Lexicon of Comicana" virtually set in concrete many of the terms he invented, as by then having acquired an unexpected validity. But conventional dictionaries are tardy in following.These terms are words for things (sweat drops, speed lines, etc)known to all, yet mostly requiring several words to descibe. I suppose it's just a matter of time before OED and others relent and get them out of limbo as 'real' words:
whiteope, sphericasia, swaloop, agitron, that-a-tron, squeans, spurls, oculama, crottles, emanata, waftatron, blurgit, briffit, symbolia, vites, dites, hites, up-hites, lucaflects, maledicta balloons, plewds, solrads, indotherm, farkles, doozex, staggeration, boozex, digitrons, nittles, grawlix, quimp, jarns, etc. Any views?

Please help.

I did not find the right solution from the internet.
