Derf on Carr on Comic Riffs

As I commented at the Post site, I realize that Derf has given up The City, but boy, that was a great strip and a mistake by the City Paper when they dropped it. He's never been considered an editorial cartoonist by the traditional field, but he's done some hard-hitting comics. Derf also won an RFK Journalism award in the cartoonists category somewhere around this time.
