More recently, I drew some comic strips and used a size closer to what cartoonists used in the old days, about five inches tall. It allowed a lot more freedom and flow of pen and pencil, yet still seemed tiny!<BR/><BR/>I think one thing that's happened during the past decade is that, when cartoonists had to start scanning in their cartoons themselves, they started drawing smaller. As newspapers started shrinking around this same time, it didn't make as much of a difference to most cartoonists, as they had begun drawing smaller and using less detail anyway. Or maybe not.<BR/><BR/>At any rate, it's fun seeing stuff like this. Thanks for posting it and Happy Anniversary! I'm sure a little therapy will clear up any neurosis Alice may develop regarding her age issue.Ted Dawsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02731194571758245291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346830305687186778.post-67877821700088246342009-02-11T16:21:00.001-08:002009-02-11T16:21:00.001-08:00congratulations Richard, I absolutely love your st...congratulations Richard, I absolutely love your strip. My wife was reading the Cul De Sac collection the other night and I have never seen her laugh so hard at a comic strip before.

Alice's friends all seem to be boys. It leads me to suspect that you were never a little girl.Buglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12769011470635724726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346830305687186778.post-85595539693135972552009-02-10T02:17:00.000-08:002009-02-10T02:17:00.000-08:00I only discovered Cul De Sac a year or so ago, and...I only discovered Cul De Sac a year or so ago, and it's become my favourite comic strip *ever*.
