Some of those cartoons look nothing like me.

I hope to actually get back to painting someday... soon. I sort of transitioned into cartooning from painting.

Why does this person who is sitting behind a desk and never watches cartoons is arguing about what cartoons should be like. Its so creepy realizing that this person is a lunatic.

Of the many guests we welcomed to the Mickey Mouse Club, my absolute favorites were the Lennon Sisters.

Rami The Hero

Rami a friend who accomplished
a lot in his time went to heaven I pray that he's fine.
Rami was a cartoonist, Olympic wrestler
and High school teacher, just to name a few.
His daughter Rachel who I pray for-
and loving wishes to her baby Rylie Vega Ray
Rami-Rachel misses You-
for You were a Great Father who
was a generous Dad too.
Rami was a fellow cartoonist
that illustrated a cartoon book—
He had many talents no matter where he looked.
Rami used to call me Suzaria
with emphasis on Sue-
He seemed like a loner-
but He could be a friend to you.
I will draw a Cartoon Character of him
for he had many qualities to admire-
his students will look up to him
and hope to emulate and aspire.

When people laugh at Mickey Mouse, it's because he's so human; and that is the secret of his popularity.

Alternative cartoonists have to rely on comic book stores to get their stuff in the hands of readers.

That was real baseball. We weren't playing for money. They gave us Mickey Mouse watches that ran backwards.

No one blames themselves if they don't understand a cartoon, as they might with a painting or ""real"" art; they simply think it's a bad cartoon.

The original Mickey Mouse Club, established in the '30s, was designed to attract children to movie theaters.

So cartooning, for me, is an honorable thing. It's pushing the envelope. It's the truth of something through exaggeration.

This was more of a cartoonish thing for me and it kind of took me back to SCTV, in a way, where the characters are just a little broader and you can have that kind of fun going a little over the edge.

Tick is a cartoon character, I don't know if you're familiar with him. This is the third step in his evolution. Comic book to cartoon to, now, live-action.

Most original viewers of the Mickey Mouse Club didn't face the crush of family and social problems children have today.

Mickey Mouse... is always there-he's part of my life. That really is something not everyone can call their claim to fame.

When I did sports cartoons, I used to uh, go to fights.

The Gorillaz cartoons seem more real to me than the actual people on TV. Because at least you know that there's some intelligence behind the cartoons, and there's a lot of work that's gone into it, so it can't all be just a lie.

If you want to find out what a writer or a cartoonist really feels, look at his work. That's enough.

Honky Tonk in Cleveland, Ohio

It's a jazz affair, drum crashes and coronet razzes.
The trombone pony neighs and the tuba jackass snorts.
The banjo tickles and titters too awful.
The chippies talk about the funnies in the papers.
The cartoonists weep in their beer.
Shop riveters talk with their feet
To the feet of floozies under the tables.
A quartet of white hopes mourn with interspersed snickers:
"I got the blues.
I got the blues.
I got the blues."
And . . . as we said earlier:
The cartoonists weep in their beer.
