  • The Cartoon Crier
    VOLUME 1 SPRING 2012 ISSUE 1 2 THE CARTOON CRIER Bil Keane, 1922–2011 In the late 1990s I was in my thirties trying to make a name for myself as a cartoonist. I fervently wanted to make a comic that could be deemed literature. I believed the future of the medium was the graphic novel and had no time for the contemporary newspaper comic strip. Its format seemed tired and its content formulaic. Then I saw the above Family Circus panel. The elements still give me a chill. A leafless tree is silhouetted in what looks to be the stark lighting of sundown. An old woman, her back to the reader, peers over her shoulder. The setting at first seems intimate, as she is sitting on a bed, yet the wall behind her is impersonal and empty. Her expression is one of weariness and resignation. She is contemplating her death. Whom is she speaking to? Her son? Her husband? An apparition? Little Dolly? This one unpretentious panel had all the mystery and pathos I so wanted to see in my own work. I had a lot to learn from Bil Keane. Bil Keane passed away last year at age 89. He was a great cartoonist. Through his involvement with the National Cartoonists Society, Bil enriched the lives of so many other cartoonists. The editors of The Cartoon Crier respectfully dedicate this issue to his memory. — James Sturm THA E C RTOON CRIER Volume 1 Number 1 Spring 2012 Publisher A joint publication of The Center for Cartoon Studies and The National Cartoonists Society Editors Cole Closser, R.

  • How to Srat to Think About Learning to Draw Comics
    THE LANGUAGE OF COMICS The View from Here Examining the DNA of comics requires patience and determina- tion. Cartoonists are visual linguists who use (and add to) a pic torial vocabulary that has been established through trial and error over the course of centuries. Simple abstract marks and shapes trigger memory and imagination. A loopy calligraphic squiggle propels a car. Beads of sweat, a thought balloon, and a series of wavy lines are part of an alphabet of symbols that represent ideas, objects, space, and time. The difference between a good comic and a great one is how subtly and intelligently the artist manipulates these symbols. The work of a new generation of cartoonists, with greater sensitiv- ity to the medium’s nuances, inhabits a space existing somewhere between literature and art. Each line, mark, or swatch of color is chosen as deliberately as a poet chooses a comma or semicolon. Whether one is trying to produce a laugh from a one-panel gag car- toon or envelop a reader in a 300-page graphic novel, the goal is the same: to build a world that can be shared, and to elicit, if even for just a fleeting moment, a connection from one person to another. THE CENTER FOR CARTOON STUDIES A Comics Academy, A Working Studio The young artist or writer can choose among hundreds of paint- ing and writing programs. Aspiring film students also have myriad options for where they can study their craft, establish sound pro- fessional habits, and exchange ideas and contacts with peers and professionals.
