Brilliant strip, yes, but I also thank OJ for reminding me how I’m looking forward to Zippy The Pinhead artist Bill Griffith’s graphic biography of Nancy creator Ernie Bushmiller, which has ben delayed at least a couple of times but is supposed to be for sale in February 2023.
Apologies for being as day late to the comments, but I wonder if Mr. Hilburn was familiar w/ this parody of a parody before drawing the ’toon above: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3G4QY3sFczI
Since I can only read the dude’s name(s), even after enlarging it at Creators’ site, here’s guessing Turner left out the portion of his bio wherein he was convicted of having falsely imprisoned and whipped with an electrical cord a couple of women. I wonder what cultural principle that represents…?!
What is it? I can’t make out type tiny as it is there.
