Re: RIP Bill Keane of Family Circus fame
They need to make the last comic one with the pallbearers carrying the casket all over the panel, through the neighborhood, over and around everything, before they get it to the cemetery.

Re: RIP Bill Keane of Family Circus fame
Yeah, I thought the guy passed away years ago and the strip was done by his son. He always did the "Dad's away so six year old Timmy drew the strip today" and the resulting cartoon looked authentically crude as if drawn by a child. Of course it wasn't.
BTW, the best DRAWN strip today, in my opinion, is ZITS. Those guys put the work in. The design of their panels and the jokes are terrific. |

Re: RIP Bill Keane of Family Circus fame
Yes, the real "Jeffy" has been doing the strip for a few years, although there is not a little reuse/adaptation of old art.
...And I only read it ironically, via The Comics Curmudgeon, www.joshreads.com |

Re: RIP Bill Keane of Family Circus fame
I would love to see his son Glen take over.... But I know he is busy animating. He is still one of the best artists I have ever seen. His animation of Aladin, the Little Mermaid and the Beast will always be legendary. He would probably draw the comic "too well" anyway
Those not familiar with Glen's work can view it here: http://theartofglenkeane.blogspot.com/ |

but he does some 3-D stuff, although it doesn't have that magic touch that his hand drawn stuff possessed. It looks like anyone else's 3-D work. His drawing skill made his previous animation shine.
