Someone told me recently that comics are the main reason to
purchase a newspaper. You can get them on the internet but only in a newspaper
can you get all of the comics in one place. That made sense to me. One of my
favorite cartoonists just took a week off and had somebody fill in for them.
Really? All you have to do is come up with a 3 frame comic once a day (it’s a
nice gig) and you’re telling me you can’t accumulate a backlog of 7 strips
before you go on vacation? So the cartoonist is basically saying, “Hey, I can draw
344 of these a year but I can’t do 365.” * C’mon!
Oh, and on Sundays I want at least 6 frames. None of this
“I’ll just make the frames bigger on Sunday and nobody will notice”. You know
who you are.
*Assumes three weeks of vacation.
