Written and illustrated in a children's storybook style, There's a Hair in My Dirt!

Sunday comics were double-sized, done in watercolor or colored pencils, with captions handwritten in Larson's own hand. Most of Larson's comics relied on some combination of a visual and verbal gag, rather than just one or the other. Some recurring themes in the comic include people being stranded on desert islands, aliens, heaven, hell, and the life of cavemen. Many cartoons focused on animals, especially cows, bears, dogs, flies, and ducks. Notably, virtually all characters portrayed in the comic were overweight or obese, and usually wearing glasses. In addition, unless needed for a facial or comic expression, eyes are almost never drawn and characters usually show only a brow ridge. Larson was recognized for his work on the strip with the National Cartoonist Society Newspaper Panel Cartoon Award for and , [2] and with their Reuben Award for and The letters were written to newspaper publishers and often demanded the removal of The Far Side. Despite these protests, The Far Side remained popular and continued to run in many newspapers. Larson himself often laughs at the controversies as evidenced in The Prehistory of The Far Side , in which he writes that the people complaining have usually misunderstood the cartoon. The cartoons were first collected in small books see list below , and some were then republished in larger best-of collections such as The Far Side Galleries. The five The Far Side Gallery books are the most popular, each of them collecting together the best cartoons from three smaller books, along with a humorous foreword by celebrity fans, including Stephen Jay Gould, Stephen King , Robin Williams , and Jane Goodall. In , The Prehistory of The Far Side was published to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the strip. In this book, Gary Larson discussed the development of The Far Side , the public's reaction to it, and presented a selection of his personal favorites from the cartoon's history, as well as previously unpublished sketches and strips rejected by his editor. In , The Complete Far Side was released, containing nearly every The Far Side comic ever published except for a few cartoons written for Christmas cards. The collection is also missing parody art pieces from Wiener Dog Art , some material from The Prehistory of The Far Side , and a panel run for a caption writing contest in the Telegram-Tribune newspaper.

Un Huerto Urbano | '+textTruncate(,50,'.')+' This kind of humor was around already in other media. There were other shows and stand-up comics, and it obviously was in magazines and books. It was just not appearing in newspapers. Q: You often drew cartoons about animals and birds and primates and that sort of thing. To me it was just humor. Some people call it sick, but it was an equal opportunity sickness. A: Yeah, I am. It is difficult for me to talk about my drawing or my technique because I never drew that well. And I was always struggling. I used to work harder at some cartoons than probably people would ever expect that I did. Without being that great an artist, in my gut I knew where I wanted to go with something. And I would try to get it there. A: Those were the battles. For me, perspective was always important. Q: Do you adjust your cartoon ideas accordingly? A: Usually I was foolish enough to try it anyway.

  • Working for Peanuts by Mark Matteson
    Working for Peanuts by Mark Matteson Whenever I walked into the room as a kid, my father would say “Hiya, Charlie!” You see, when I was five years old and living in Japan, I looked just like Charlie Brown, the Peanuts character. I had a big round head, a wisp of blond hair with a cowlick, and I could most often be seen in a tee shirt and shorts. I was a dead ringer, complete with the paradox of hope and self- doubt on the inside. As I grew older, there was something about the Peanuts message and characters that really resonated with me. I always felt better after reading the daily strip. It was unlike any other cartoon of the day, thought-provoking, with little kids talking like adults. At age 10, I began my very first journal. I would cut out the daily Peanuts cartoon and paste it into a scrapbook. I bought every Peanuts book I could find. To this day, I draw a mean Charlie Brown. I recently finished listening to the audio book, Schulz and Peanuts, by David Michaelis. It’s an incredibly well-written biography profiling the extraordinary ascent of an American icon. Born on November 26, 1922, he was a great humorist, philosopher, and, of course, world-renowned and beloved cartoonist. Click the link below for an interview with the author. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6cwIqekWH0&NR=1 “Sparky”—his childhood nickname in Minnesota—was a shy and solitary boy, not unlike Charlie Brown. Younger and shorter than his classmates, he lacked confidence and self-esteem.

Larson credits his older brother Dan for his "paranoid" sense of humor.

Written (s) Gary LarsonWebsite Status/ScheduleActiveLaunch Date December 31, 1979Syndicate (s)Chronicle Features (1980-1985)Universal Press Syndicate (1985-1996)Genre (s)Humor satire, black comedy, avant-garde TheNature's The Way The Far Side is a one-nicated comic, created by Gary Larson and syndicated by Chronicle Features, and then by Universal Press Syndicate, which ran from December 31, 1979 to January 1, 1995 (when Larson retired as a cartoonist). His surreal humor is often based on uncomfortable social situations, incredible events, an anthropomorphic view of the world, logical misconceptions, impending strange catastrophes, (often twisted) references to proverbs or the search for meaning in life. Larson's frequent use of animals and nature in the comic is popularly explained by his experience in biology. Ultimately, the Far Side was translated by more than 1,900 daily newspapers, translated into 17 languages and collected in calendars, greeting cards and 23 collections, and reruns are still being conducted in many newspapers. After a 25-year hiatus, in July 2020, Larson began drawing new far side bands offered through the comic's official website. Larson was recognized for his work on the band with the National Society of Cartoonists Newspaper Group Cartoon Award for 1985 and 1988, and with their Ruben Award for 1990 and 1994. The Far Side won the 2020 Webby People's Voice Award for humor in the Web category.

  • She Lives: Bringing the Bride of Frankenstein to Life in the Comics
    Torregrossa 1 Michael A. Torregrossa Independent Scholar 33rd Annual Conference of the Far West Popular Culture Association 20 February 2021 She Lives: Bringing the Bride of Frankenstein to Life in the Comics Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1818) recently celebrated its two-hundredth anniversary, and its story remains vibrant in popular culture, especially in the comics medium. Creators of comics have been especially prolific. According to a search of the Grand Comics Database, as of February 2021, there are over four thousand five hundred adaptations of the Frankenstein story in comic books and graphic novels produced from the late 1930s to the present. To this corpus, there are also an uncounted number of representations of the novel’s characters and themes in cartoons and comic strips, forms of comics that are not as easily reckoned but stretching back to exemplars from the 1840s. Collectively, all of these comics represent a massive text base to explore the reception of Shelley’s work in modern culture, and, while scholarship on this material is growing (especially since the bicentennial), investigations still remain limited. As part of my ongoing work in cataloging representations of Frankenstein in comics, I’ve looked at the careers of the Creature and his creator, Victor Frankenstein, but I’ve only recently begun to look at how the character of the Bride of Frankenstein has been depicted. I’d like to use this opportunity to further that work and look more closely at continuations and recastings of her story. My efforts are inspired by and seek to extend many of the ideas presented in Erin Hawley’s recent essay “The Bride and Her Afterlife: Female Frankenstein Monsters on Page and Screen” (2015).
