J.C. Duffy talks about Fusco Brothers
Over at the Universal Press web site is a news release with J.C. Duffy talking about his feature, Fusco Brothers which has been in syndication since 1989 and appears in 100+ papers.
As far as the “Fusco Brothers” changing over the past years, they really haven’t much, Duffy confesses. The looks of the “Fusco Brothers” may have changed a bit, but their personalities have stayed the same. “Visually, their features have gotten a bit softer, more rounded. I guess my hand just got tired of drawing these incredibly long, sharp noses and just cut back on the length. Plus, they all looked like rats,” Duffy says. “Personality-wise, I think they’re the same old guys,” he adds.

Really? I think they’re woeful. Limp punnish commentary, coupled with extremely poor drawing. I’m amazed that papers still carry it.

Hey, face it: The Fuscos is Us
They’re smooth sophisticates, unappreciated by the broads. It’s just a question of which one of the dumb bimbos is going to marry us and settle down to a Budweiser life.
Yours in Sports, Jacko
