Here’s the first fruits of your labor, those of you who graciously and generously have supported Hubris on Patreon.

When I was in college, I went to a local cartoonist (Mr. Scott Stantis) and asked for advice. He was generous with his time and attention, and I asked how to repay him. He said, “Pass it on.” And so when a young man who wants to become an animator came asking for advice, I told him what I could about how things work with ad agencies and the kind of people I know who hire animators. He’s created a couple of Hubris animations so far, and this is the latest. Could you help him out, too? Take a look at the animation. Comment about what you like and don’t like. Be kind, but explain what you’re seeing or not seeing. I reckon you’ll be seeing a lot more of Eddie’s work.

In Boston a couple of years ago, The National Cartoonist Society had their big annual meeting, and part of that was John Read’s Cartoon Art Collection Show ‘One Fine Sunday in the Funny Pages’. That’s a show of original comic strip art from a single Sunday, featuring old-school newspaper comic strips you may have seen in your local paper, depending on which cartoons your local paper runs. Very fun, and John was nice enough to ask me for a Buckets cartoon (Hubris isn’t in the newspapers, you know. Feel free to contact your local paper and explain what they’re missing. They’re always so happy to hear from readers these days.) and along with the actual showing of the show, and since there were a pantload of cartoonists right there anyhow, a lot of us were asked to go and sign autographs. There were special posters that the first however many people who came could have for free, just for autographs. It was very nice.

And then things got entertaining. This young lady thought “Why am I bothering with getting things like PAPER signed? Paper, after all, is so old school. I shall get my autographs on me. And she did.

I was using a skinny sharpie. There’s a doodle of Eddie Bucket on her forearm closest her elbow. Yay!
