Happy Birthday Vic Carrabotta, born June 24, 1929!
Vic becomes the latest creator to join the Senior Strippers roster. A list of cartoonists who for 90+ years continue to survive “the thousand natural shocks that flesh is heir to.”

comic book, comic strip, gag cartoonist FRANK HILL September 10, 1929

comic book writer and editor SID JACOBSON October 20, 1929

editorial cartoonist CHARLIE DANIEL December 14, 1929

 

Lost since last year’s list is
Ken Bald, Stan Lee, Tom K. Ryan, Steve Ditko, and Everett Raymond Kinstler.

Missing from last year’s list is Luis Dominguez and Phil Hirsch. I was informed that Luis Dominguez had Alzheimer’s about a dozen years  ago and it is unlikely he continues on. I can find nothing, one way or the other, about Phil Hirsch but have dropped him from the list.

Hat tip: Bob Buethe, Doc Vassallo, Tom Spurgeon, Bart Bush, Ron Evry, Roger Clark, Lenona

Corrections and additions are welcomed and encouraged.

  1. I cannot fully convey the hope and joy this post brings me. God bless them all as they continue to entertain us with their talents and creations.

  2. I confess to being surprised by Mort Kunstler. However I see he did covers for Classics Illustrated near the beginning of his career.

  3. Did William M. Brown reach SENIOR STRIPPER status before he recently passed away?

  4. No, Wm. M. Brown was not a Senior Stripper. Yes, Wm. F. Brown was a Senior Stripper, though not on the list.
    I dare say there are as many (more?) cartoonists over 90 not on my list as there are on the list – which is why I ask for help in identifying more. Often we don’t learn of those not on the list until we hear of their passing (i.e. W. F. Brown).
    More surprising to me was that the recently passed Cal Massey was not on the list. Well-known artist, comic and otherwise, and well-known to be “of age”, I don’t understand how he wasn’t noted.
