Gary Larson, '''Far Side''' cartoonist, publishes first new work in 25 years - CNN Style


Love me some Far Side. He grew up near the Woodland Park Zoo (Seattle) A stone's throw from where I grew up. This guy is brilliant. Welcome back. Lord knows we need some humor.
 
I love the Far Side too! Every year I would by the Day to Day calendar, my favorite!
 
I think it will have to be an "acquired taste" getting use to his new digital tablet drawing. I just loved his pen and paper drawings.
 
The new stuff isn't his best stuff but it made me happy to see them.
 
Yep.



One I can't find is where two hunters in the woods come upon a basketball hoop mounted on a tree with deer tracks below it - one hunter asks the other "were they playing zone or man to man?".
 
Bummer of a birthmark. Hal.

Cat fud.
 
Yep.

I can't find the lady paramecium one--where the one lady is telling the other, "Well, Nancy, if he's telling you that, he's just pulling your flagellum." :lamo

Maybe my all-time fave is "Blah-blah-Ginger!" blah blah ginger by Gary Larson (Far Side comic) | Far side comics, Gary larson cartoons, Far side cartoons
 
Yes, he and a famous herpetologist lived right there by the zoo, where my ex was a zookeeper and coincidentally, also a herpetologist.

We met Gary when he spoke at a herpetology conference our club held in Seattle years ago...he has some great stories. Real life stories are just as bizarre as his cartoons.

 

I grew up on 44th & Phinney. So I spent a fair amount of time in the park.
 
Welcome back Gary, you were missed :yes:
