Barbara Dale's studio and cartoon collection
Besides being a stunningly successful cartoonist, Barbara Dale also has great collections of comics and cartoon history. Things like Thomas Nast's business card. She's known everyone, and gotten cartoons from many of them. Barbara opened her house and studio for a ComicsDC tour recently and has agreed to let me show some of her excellent collection.

The end of 'Cathy' comes Sunday
Cathy Guisewite is ending her strip 'Cathy' on Sunday and there's been some newspaper articles wondering how it'll end. Here's how I think it will NOT end:
With Cathy having shed 20 pounds and gotten a full-body wax for a flourishing career as a swimsuit model;
With Cathy and Irving putting their son in a rocket and sending him from their doomed planet;
With Cathy and Irving waving goodbye to their children as the train leaves for Hogwarts;
With Cathy having died to save the universe from the Anti-Monitor;
With Cathy and Irving riding a sled through the woods;
With Cathy gunned down on a city street after seeing a Zorro movie while her young son watches in horror;
With Cathy frozen in a block of carbonite;
With Cathy elected as the first female President of the US;
With Cathy drowning while saving a young child from a swollen stream;
With Cathy and Irving walking off, saying "This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship";
With protests throughout the Muslim world.

Patriot-News comics poll considers adding Cul de Sac
Vote on the comic strip that will replace 'Cathy' in The Patriot-News
CHRIS MAUTNER, The Patriot-News September 12, 2010.
No ballot stuffing now. My friend Chris is undoubtedly technically savvy enough to detect that, and the fact that he undoubtedly spent time in Richard's vicinity at SPX this weekend doesn't mean anything.
