The Born Loser began in 1965 as a strip with no central characters that revolved around the loser theme. Gradually, it developed into the comic we see today, starring lovable loser Brutus Thornapple, his wife Gladys, mother-in-law Ramona Gargle, boss Rancid Veeblefester, dim-witted son Wilberforce and the mischievous neighbor Hurricane Hattie O'Hara.
Artist Chip Sansom began apprenticing for his father, Born Loser creator Art Sansom, in 1977. He became a full-time assistant, and gradually took on an ever-increasing role in the drawing and gag-writing duties until his father passed away in 1991.

Jackson. I heard a long time ago that Mississippi is spelled “M-I-crooked letter-crooked letter-I-crooked letter-crooked letter-I-humpback-humpback-I”!

I’ve always wondered why Mississppi would name itself in such a way as to render its citizens unable to spell it.
