The artist is Tom Batiuk, ... (rhymes with attic) Tom Batiuk was a high school teacher before he started his celebrated comic strip 'Funky Winkerbean' in 1972. The comic started out as a look at everyday high school life. Throughout the years, Batiuk's comic matured into a series of real-life stories. Batiuk started using sensitive social issues as alcoholism, suicide, teen-dating, abuse and cancer in the series, which made him a groundbreaking artist in the genre. This earned him several awards. King Features distributes 'Funky Winkerbean' to about 400 newspapers worldwide. ....... (the above from) http://www.lambiek.net/batiuk_tom.htm He may be from Ohio, ... not sure, ... we get him in the Akron Beacon Journal. Kaycee973@aol.com wrote: > HOW COOL IS THAT! WHO is the artist?

Well other than the fact that the women look like they are marrying each other (lesbian marriage issues I suppose) - if you look closely enough, the woman on the right only has one arm....not that this has to do with anything - but I found that to be quite strange.

Yeah, you're right...she does have one arm...but it looks like that's on purpose. And I think it's a double marriage, not a lesbian marriage. - ----- Original Message ----- > Well other than the fact that the women look like they are marrying each > other (lesbian marriage issues I suppose) - if you look closely enough, > the > woman on the right only has one arm....not that this has to do with > anything - but I found that to be quite strange. > > Maggie Reidy > Advertising Account Representative > maggier@rubinresponse.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2005 14:54:14 +0000 From: jmphlbat@comcast.net Subject: Re: MM: Re: Re: Doesn't anyone on this list read the Sunday Funnies?
