I hope some historian will confirm that I was the first cartoonist to use the word "booger" in a newspaper comic strip.

Strip Cartoon

Fish and chips, sandpaper lips and a rainy pavement.
Soho lights, another night --- thinking of you.
Black cat, sat on a wall, winks at me darkly.
Suggesting ways and means that I might win a smile ---
As you leave the place where you work until 12.30
And the policemen nods as you pass along his beat.
Sweaty feet, troubled brow -- were all in the same game, lady.
Lifes no bowl of cherries --- its a black and white strip cartoon.
Ive been warned that you and your friends are crazy
As from your hearts you bare your parts to the gentlemen,
Who, while they drool, trying to keep cool,
Spill their scotch and water.
But Im not that way, I must say --- Id much prefer to see
You in your texturised rubber rainwear around 12.30.
Come and play shades of grey in my black and white strip cartoon.
Strip cartoon is all Im after.
Strip cartoon is all I crave ---
So come to my place around 12.30
'cos Im a leading politician
At a dangerous age.

Where did they put pictures, comic strips, and coupons before they invented the refrigerator door?

Cheating on a quiz show? That's sort of like plagiarizing a comic strip.

There were influences in my life that were more important than journalism, such as comic strips and radio.

I never storyboard. I hate it. I don't understand why so many directors want to make comic strips of their films.

Well, I'm always working on my comic strip and trying to, you know, keep cranking that out.

I never thought Cathy would get married in the comic strip. And I also thought I would never get married.

Most films are rooted in a book or a comic strip, but I don't go out there saying I want to do adaptations.

I say, if you believe what you read in the comic strips, then you believe that mice run around with little gold buttons on their red pants and drive cars.

I suppose I would still prefer to sit under a tree with a picnic basket rather than under a gas pump, but signs and comic strips are interesting as subject matter.

You learn just by trying and experimenting. By the time I was 14, I had my own comic strip in the Kansas City paper.

Looking back Little Lulu was an early feminist, but at the time I just thought she was a really feisty developed comic strip character.

The world of a comic strip ought to be a special place with its own logic and life... I don't want the issue of Hobbes's reality settled by a doll manufacturer.

For a long time I wanted to be a comic strip artist but when I started doing them in my teens they were getting really elaborate with tons of poses and a lot of information.

I draw a weekly comic strip called Life in Hell, which is syndicated in about 250 newspapers. That's what I did before The Simpsons, and what I plan to do for the rest of my life.

I could draw Bloom County with my nose and pay my cleaning lady to write it, and I'd bet I wouldn't lose 10% of my papers over the next twenty years. Such is the nature of comic-strips. Once established, their half-life is usually more than nuclear waste.
