“First words”

« Previous    Next »

My longtime friend and fellow cartoonist Larned Justin passed away unexpectedly last week. While I only had the opportunity to meet him in person a few times over the two and a half decades we knew each other, we traveled a pretty parallel path thru much of the self-published comics scene. He was an early contributor to my Watusi jam comics, and an enthusiastic supporter of self-published and small press comics of all kinds. You can read my full appreciation of Larned here.

It was hard to select just one of Larned’s Watusi comics to share here, but this one showcases his love of parody, silly gags and bigfoot cartooning as well as any of them. And he even gets the final panel! It originally appeared in Watusi the Talking Dog #40, along with Watusi “origins” by a slew of other cartoonists.

So... what'd you think?
