Danmark celebrates Herge’s Centenary
Wednesday, June 20th, 2007
The Metabunker has collected the drawings that several Danish cartoonists made to celebrate Hergé’s 100th birthday. Those who are familiar with my hangups and dada’s, know that I’m very fond of Tintin in Tibet. That is why I liked Jan Solheim’s contribution, above, best. Go to the Metabunker site for a much larger version, and for the other artists’ work.

Five Obstructions
Wednesday, June 20th, 2007
Inspired by Lars “Dogma” Von Trier (about whom I would very much like to read a freudian psychological analysis, mind you), Tom Hart challenged his friend and co-oubapo-ist Matt Madden to challenge him with five obstructions in a comic strip. The results had to be printed in the Metro newspaper.
The results are quite interesting, and I was quite amazed to see how Tom managed to follow each and every one of Matt’s devious devices, and still keep true to the soul of his strip. It’s a bit sad that paper wouldn’t print the words-only strip. For that reason, I’ve included it here.

Now on at Yesterday’s Papers : an article from the december 1929 issue of the Strand Magazine, featuring profiles of a host of cartoonist who were working at the time, including W. K. Haselden, David Low (who’s work looks surprisingly modern), Sidney Strube and Tom Webster.
More vintage British cartoonists can be found at the most excellent British Cartoon Archive.
