Summer’s here and the time is right for … ch-ch-ch-changes.
Unless you are Greg and Karen Evans.
The reaction to the artistic switch that happened in Luann Monday was not taken kindly by most of the fans that responded here at TDC, some going so far as to say Luann no more. Fans at the Luann GoComics page were a bit more tolerant of Jay Fosgitt‘s art on the dream sequence.
Maybe because Olivia Jaimes was the sixth or seventh cartoonist to sign the Fritzi Ritz/Nancy comic strip…
Nancy fans were, on the whole, more accepting of the changes there that will last for this Summer.
Or maybe it was because Olivia warned them changes were afoot.
No problems this past week when Dana Simpson turned her cartooning duties over to Phoebe.
Of course it’s not the first time Phoebe and Her Unicorn has been drawn by the title character.
Big Nate has also gone auto-biographical his adventures prior to today.
Maybe the next time Greg Evans goes the guest artist route his fans will take more kindly to the change.
Taking the Olivia Jaimes route John Hambrock spent the past week easing his fans into next week’s change,
when the corporate take over of The Brilliant Mind of Edison Lee has been realized.
Well, at least someone is celebrating cartooning with a difference.
Paul Trap and Thatababy praise the work of Big Daddy Roth today.
Elsewhere a cartoonist walks through his own comic strip scene.
Francesco Marciuliano makes a cameo appearance in Sally Forth as drawn by Jim Keefe.
Leigh Ruben once more subverts a favorite song to his own purpose in Rubes.
Then Vic Lee takes an old adage adults told us when we were children to get a laugh in Pardon My Planet.
Cartoonist Luca Debus gets introspective with today’s Wannabe:
The feature image is from today’s Heathcliff by Peter Gallagher.
