sam

Oh, I know. It's not a scribbling at all, this. I just like it. Sam was visiting and when I found him having a kip* in our front room (especially with that ear)? Well; it demanded a photo.

*I know what it looks like. He was simply asleep, bless him.

will elder, RIP

I was sad to hear that the great Will Elder died last Wednesday, at the age of 87.

Above is an example* of his exquisite work on 'Little Annie Fanny'; created (along with the peerless Harvey Kurtzman) for Hugh Hefner and Playboy - and recognised as the first fully painted American comic strip.

And here's his obituary in the New York Times.

*in a French translation, for some reason. Sorry about that.
