That darn Edith Pritchett, Garfield, Slylock Fox, and Lisa Benson




Sometimes my arms bend back ... (Edith Pritchett/The Washington Post)


Washington Post Jan 25 2025: A15.

She"s dead ... wrapped in plastic!

Edith Pritchett"s so-called editorial cartoon "January Sales: A chart" would be a waste of precious opinion space on any day. The decision to publish it on Jan. 20 — a confluence of Inauguration Day and Martin Luther King Jr. Day — was an utter insult to your readers and to the day"s significance.

Ronnie Jill Kweller, Washington

As a young reader of The Post and fan of Edith Pritchett"s "non-funny, non-political, non-satirical, non-mocking, non-anything scribbling," as Norman Michael Harman described it in the Dec. 14 Free for All, I feel the need to justify why her pieces give me something to look forward to each Saturday. Her cultural observations on the mundanity of modern human existence never fail to make me chuckle after reading 14 to 20 pages of news about the woes abounding in America and the rest of the world. Last I checked, the op-ed pages are labeled "Opinion," not "Political Opinion," and I applaud The Post for sticking with her cartoons, as they resonate with and attract young readers like me. The Post is not just for octogenarians.

Roxanne Rogers, Springfield

Fix your hearts or die

The Jan. 8 "Garfield" featured a large dog on a heavy chain excited about an upcoming walk, to which Garfield cynically replies, "Dogs are so easily entertained."

I can"t help but compare it with the heartbreaking storyline two years ago in Patrick McDonnell"s "Mutts," in which Guard Dog was abandoned on his chain, only to be rescued by kind humans. Told with compassion and empathy, the story had millions eager to see the happy conclusion of Guard Dog being adopted and taken off the chain forever. It helped teach the nation about the evils of dog chaining and abandonment, from the perspective of the dog himself.

It seems Jim Davis didn"t get the message. He seems to think that dogs on chains are "entertained" by going on walks, and actually sneers at them for it.

David Bernazani, Ashburn


Through the darkness of future"s past, the magician longs to see. One chants out between two worlds ...

Let me get this out of the way: No, I am not proud of the fact that I almost never can "spot six differences" between the two cartoon panels within the "Slylock Fox" block in the Sunday Comics. The puzzles are geared toward little kids, an age group I left in the 1960s. I can handle not being the equal of "Erin, age 8" in the Your Drawing feature, because art has never been my strong suit. But I am a 66-year-old college graduate, so my regular inability to identify the six differences is disheartening. It would be downright humiliating if not for the fact that The Post runs this feature in such a small size that I often can"t tell the differences between the panels even after I"ve peeked at the answers. I respectfully ask you to enlarge these panels so I can definitively evaluate whether I"m losing it. (In the meantime, I find that yes, I can indeed draw a hungry bear in three steps by following Slylock Fox"s illustrated instructions.)

Eric Ries, Kensington

... fire walk with me

In her Jan. 15 editorial cartoon, "Recipe for disaster," Lisa Benson identified budget cuts, water policy, the Santa Ana winds, firebugs, politics, the insurance crisis and dry brush as "ingredients" in the catastrophic California wildfires. But she left out a basic ingredient: greenhouse gas emissions. Those emissions create changes in climate, such as periods of heavy rainfall followed by excessive heat and drought. The rainfall enhances growth in vegetation that is then dried by the heat and drought, making conditions ripe for fire.

The chef in the cartoon appears to be a Democratic donkey. But climate change is nonpartisan. It has devastating effects on red states as well as blue ones. Think of hurricane disasters in Texas and Florida.

We cannot ignore the link between climate change and natural disasters. To protect ourselves, we must all be "climate chefs." That requires working together to drastically reduce the greenhouse gases we use in our "recipes."

Michael N. Wilcove, Rockville

Can you still recite your favorite picture book from childhood? Are you a grown up who misses the magic of stories read aloud?

Award-winning author-illustrators Cece Bell and Raúl the Third, and 2008-2009 National Ambassador for Young People Literature Jon Scieszka, believe that picture books are important and give us an opportunity to be playful and mischievous, no matter our age.

 Learn about the surprising mechanics and artistry of picture books, enjoy stimulating read-alouds and indulge in storytime-themed beverages. We provide the blankets and hot chocolate, you put down the screens and get a chance to remember the wonderful parts of childhood.

The 2025-2026 National Ambassador for Young People"s Literature, who will be announced on Monday, February 3, will make a special guest appearance. 

The National Ambassador for Young People"s Literature is an initiative of the Library of Congress, in partnership with Every Child a Reader, with generous support from The Library of Congress James Madison Council, The Capital Group Companies Charitable Foundation and Dollar General Literacy Foundation. This event is co-sponsored by the Library"s Informal Learning Office.

Flugennock"s Latest"n"Greatest: "Fashionably Fashy"

"Fashionbly Fashy"
https://sinkers.org/stage/?p=4076

"Not a single Roman work of art — sculpture, coinage, or painting —
displays a salute of the kind that is found in Fascism, Nazism, and
related ideologies... It is also unknown to Roman literature and is
never mentioned by ancient historians of either republican or imperial
Rome. The gesture of the raised right arm or hand in Roman and other
ancient cultures that is attested in surviving art and literature had a
significantly different function and is never identical with the modern
straight-arm salute."
— Martin Winkler, in "The Roman Salute: Cinema, History, Ideology"

...just in case you run into any fashy apologists or Musk symps trying
to explain it away by saying it's a "Roman Salute".

So just cut the crap already, 'cos all the wide-open fash are wide-open
loving it and — like the original — the Early 21st sequel also features
craven-ass collaborators, in the form of the Democratic Party.

The Pulitzer-winning cartoonist Ann Telnaes hasn"t granted many interviews since she resigned from the Washington Post to protest the censorship of her (now famous) cartoon. I was honored that she agreed to appear on TBR Podcast, and it"s a conversation you won"t want to miss.

Remembering Mike Ferrero of Fat Jack"s Comicrypt

Ferrero had been in the comic book business for nearly half a century, with shops in Philadelphia and Oaklyn that preceded an industry boom in the 1990s and outlived most of its competitors. Friends remember him as gentle and generous to a fault in an industry that frequently rallies around its own.
