The Latest American Bystander Is In The House

Was very happy to see the February 2025 issue of The American Bystander in my mailbox this morning. You’ve got to hand it to editor, Michael Gerber: not only is he a hyper-dedicated fan of humor, he is also dogged in his pursuit of publishing humor. Fans of New Yorker cartoons will be pleased to hear that issue #29, as in most of, if not all of the 28 issues before it, features a healthy dose of art from Eustace Tilley’s stable. Among those appearing this month: David Borchart, John Cuneo, Joe Dator, Bob Eckstein, Ivan Ehlers, Pat Byrnes, Tom Chitty, Farley Katz, Peter Kuper, and John Jonik.

Interesting “Mixture” On The Daily Cartoonist

One of my go-to sites, The Daily Cartoonist, has posted an interesting bushel of items, including notice of two graphic novels from two New Yorker contributors, Carol Lay and Ali Fitzgerald, as well as a piece on pens (!). See it all here.
