I’ve seen this cartoon before over the years. Why don’t cartoonists check to see if a cartoon has been done before? A lot of cartoonists make this mistake
are you SURE Scott Hilburn isnt Gary Larsen’s pen name?
This is pure Farside….
many thanks to Scottie for successfully carrying on this whacky tradition that left us so empty when Larsen took the money and ran
Nighthawk
I believe you mean Larson, not Larsen. You’re reminded of the Far Side when you see this because,
let’s face it, these characters look EXACTLY like Larson’s. Hold up a Lason cartoon to these - look left and then right. Maybe this IS Larson. I honestly would not be surprised - and this sounds like Mel Gibson’s conspiracy theory - that this IS Larson doing this with a person fronting. I’m onlly joking, but not 100% joking. It’s just that of all the cartoons I’ve ever seen, I’ve never seen two drawing styles be almost exactly identical. THe main difference is the computer dropped color in thisd cartoon as opposed to the more painterly look of Far Side.
I’m also amazed that I don’r read more about this. I mean if Garfield was being drawn to look like Top Cat or HeathCliff, people would be all over it.
I know this cartoon does not look like Bizarro or Rubes or Speed Bump.
Huh? Are you on drugs or something man? I’ve mentioned I’m on his mailing list before and so have others on this site. YOU’RE bring this up now not me. Is it Melange or Deranged? I’m not quite sure.
Larson, Larsen, ok ok.
Since ‘the far side’ is no longer around , ‘The argyle sweater’ fills in the void left behind very nicely, and if his characters are identical and he can get away with it , so much the better…I love the concept , not the guy’s name in the corner..
……but, who the heck is dan reynolds???????
The Argyle Sweater presents a surreal, hilarious (and sometimes punny) look at the world you think you know. Armed with a willingness to explore every edge of the surreal, Scott Hilburn’s creation presents his sharply unique take on history, everyday life and the truly absurd.

The giant thimble could rush out and smother one of them, and the ace of spades could develop a lethal spin and chop off the head of the other one.

I know Bizarro did this cartoon, too, but here are some other repeats on this theme

They had better be careful. Just over the next hill there are Hungry Hungry Hippos.

I hope they are hunting for a big “Life” game… Because calvinandquestionmark could really use one… :)

You must have some sort of fetish with this Reynolds guy. Did he dip twice in your potato chip dip or what? Are you like a groupie or something?
