Today finishes the 2024 Guest Jumbler Week, where puzzler David Hoyt and artist Jeff Knurek turn over their daily Jumble to cartoonists Jeff had met at earlier in the year at the Reuben Awards weekend and duped into gave the honor of creating a Jumble puzzle.
The puzzles, and the complete gags themselves, appeared from Monday November 18, 2024 through Friday November 23, 2024 and can be seen and solved at The Chicago Tribune Daily Jumble page (a back arrow at the upper right corner will allow the player to go to the previous day’s puzzle).
For TDC readers here are the six illustrations that accompanied the puzzles and hinted at the answers as drawn by Dee Fish, Bob Weber, Jr. & Scott Underwood, Susan Camilleri Konar, Luca Debus, Georgia Dunn, and Todd Clark.
Note David and Jeff made sure that Wednesday Six Chix cartoonist Susan Camilleri Konar appeared on Wednesday.
Jumble puzzle in the news:
Three weeks ago due to overwhelming reader umbrage Lee Enterprises’ 70+ newspapers returned Jumble to their newspapers. The Danville Register and Bee, The Richmond Times Dispatch, The Statesville Record and Landmark, The Hickory Daily Record, and The Fremont Tribune are just some of the Lee papers serving notice to appease their offended readers.
