The magazine of the cartoon arts. In this issue: A long look at Total Television, the studio that produced such animated classics as Underdog and Tennessee Tuxedo. Inside is an interview with a group of comics editors at top newspaper syndicates, pulling back the curtain on an aspect of the cartooning business that has mystified many. If you've ever wondered if your favorite comics character has ever puffed a cigarette, you should pick up this issue, which chronicles the long and very smoky history of tobacco use in the comics! Also chronicled is the tortured -- and ultimately futile -- life of one of Walt Disney's great disappointments: The unmade animated adaptation of The Gremlins. If you've thought that everything Walt touched turned to gold, this article will convince you otherwise! The issue also launches into outer space with an interview with Tim Rickard, creator of the popular new comic strip Brewster Rockit, Space Guy. Plus: The evolution of Little Lulu; an interview with the versatile June Brigman, veteran comic book artist and the current artist on Brenda Starr; and racial depictions in Henry. Cover price $6.65.

The magazine of the cartoon arts. In this issue: A long interview with Stephan Pastis, creator of the caustic, irreverent and very funny Pearls Before Swine comic strip. The issue also examines the fascinating history and the never-before-told story of Disney's Song of the South, a cartoon/live-action hybrid so fraught with period sensibilities that Disney won't allow it on the market. Stephan DeStefano, artist on the cult favorite comic book 'Mazing Man and now the merchandising artist behind Popeye, gives an interview. The issue also looks at a series of comic books in which Archie, Jughead and the Riverdale gang take a break from their usual antics to evangelize. Plus: Inside three cartoonists' studios; Dick Tracy and Shakespeare; and looking up at the Toppers. Cover price $6.95.
