Thanks, Tom, Im here at the Harbor where a schooner has just sunk…Ive found an eyewitness who'll give us his firsthand account.
Alexi…. you didn’t say where you found that, and I can’t tell from the image source….
Are you saying it was posted here, at that time, and then changed to this one…. or that you found it on a different site?Makes perfect sense if it was on a different site… happens every day.If here, it was a glitch, of sorts.In any case, of course it’s the same cartoon…same day, same artist, same title, copyright and dialogue…. it’s not like somebody else is taking credit for it.
Many cartoonists now produce their work in two different shapes… a long strip format, and a square one….with the art slightly shifted.It widens their market, being able to sell the strip to media outlets that use only one format or the other, or that have an available space of a particular shape.
Wiley, of Non Sequitur, was one of the first to do it…. you can find his strip as a rectangle or a square, depending on which newspaper or web site you look at.Apparently Dan now does it too.
