Julet Esqu posted:Dan McCoy of The Flophouse podcast posited that a better universal caption than "Christ, what an rear end in a top hat" for New Yorker cartoons would be (to paraphrase, since I can't remember the exact wording), "I feel our sex ritual has become too elaborate." So far, it holds up. The other suggestion I've heard for Generic New Yorker Cartoon Caption is "So much for the tolerant left." Not sure it really works with the Arno cartoon though. Synthbuttrange posted:Wait arent they school aged? Nah. Holbrook does age up his characters. The main cast of Safe Havens used to be preschoolers in day care when he started the strip ... 30 years ago.

Rest in peace. Slammy posted:Mopsy (April, 1941) I can't believe how consistently this strip turns out great burns.

Cullen Murphy, who wrote for Prince Valiant, which was illustrated by his father, has an article in this month's Vanity Fair about growing up in an enclave of cartoonists:quote:To my seven siblings and me, and so many others we knew, “normal” was something else entirely. Normal was coming home from school and finding a father who had done nothing but draw pictures all day while watching Million Dollar Movie on TV. He might not have changed his rumpled clothes since rolling out of bed—and, yes, that could be a piece of rope holding up his trousers. He may have played a round of golf or enjoyed a long lunch with some of his other artist friends, so when you visited his studio after school you would perhaps have to wake him from a nap. Or he might be posing for himself in front of a Polaroid, plunger in hand to snap the picture from a distance; maybe wearing a dress and wig, experimenting with drapery and composition; maybe yelling after the electrician to please come back, it wasn’t what it seemed.

This is from "Readers of The Comics Curmudgeon" group. I checked, that James Allen's Facebook page does state that he works at King Features Syndicate.

If he doesn't understand why people like sunsets or traveling, then he's not going to understand New Yorker cartoons.

I'm imaging a scene like in the cartoon where Popeye eats spinach and his spinach theme kicks in while lumps migrate across his body into his biceps, except in this case they're headed for his kidneys. I'm gonna die quicker, cause I likes me licker. I'm Popeye the sailor man.
