Strip Search: The Comic Strip PodcastStrip Search, Episode 52, Jeff Kinney of 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid'A self-described failed cartoonist, Jeff Kinney spent eight years developing his first “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” novel after syndicates passed on his daily comic strip. Within a few years after that, he found himself with a hit book series and a movie in the works (the first of many), and he’s since become the steward of a worldwide franchise that shows no signs of abating. Plus, he gives back every day to his community of Plainville, Massachusetts, via his bookstore, An Unlikely Story. How cool is that? For some reason, Jeff sat down with London & Chianca for a wide...2024-11-3034 min

Strip Search: The Comic Strip PodcastEpisode 50, Maria Scrivan Since getting her start with her hilarious single-panel comic “Half Full,” which is syndicated nationally by Andrews-McMeel, Maria Scrivan has thrown herself into her graphic novel work, and the result seems to have been as much fun for her readers as for herself: 2020’s “Nat Enough” was an instant New York Times bestseller, and the series’ popularity has only grown since. We sat down with Maria to talk about cartooning, graphic novels, and surviving middle school. Plus: Dave's review of the "What, Me Worry? The Art and Humor of MAD Magazine" at Norman Rockwell Museum! 2024-10-0436 min
Strip Search: The Comic Strip PodcastEpisode 49, Phil Witte & Rex Hesner on 'Funny Stuff'If a panel cartoon is good enough, it can wind up adorning kitchen refrigerators, office bulletin boards, and social media feeds for years on end. So how do panel cartoonists do it, with artwork that can sometimes amount to no more than a few scrawled lines, and text that might comprise just a few words? It’s a question that, apparently, haunted Phil Witte and Rex Hesner — so much so that they wrote a book about it, “Funny Stuff: How Great Cartoonists Make Great Cartoons.” Well, the impetus was actually a little more complicated than that, as you'll h...2024-07-0838 min
Strip Search: The Comic Strip PodcastEpisode 48, Bob Eckstein Talks MuseumsBob Eckstein may, by his own admission, not have especially enjoyed being dragged to museums by his parents as a child. But something changed along the way, which is readily apparent If you take a look at Bob’s new book, “Footnotes from the Most Fascinating Museums.” It features 155 beautifully painted depictions of more than 75 museums in North America, accompanied by stories that help get to the essence of what makes them so special. Creating the paintings wasn’t as difficult an undertaking as it sounds, according to Eckstein. “What I did was based on what the museum cal...2024-05-1246 min

Well, turns out there is no one way, says Heide Solbrig, a cartoonist and media scholar who teaches art, comics and media studies throughout Boston. That’s one of the reasons why she — along with LJ Baptiste, another art educator and cartoonist from Boston, whose comic series COMIXSCAPE has been running since 2012 — have developed a certificate program at MassArt to help would-be cartoonists figure out where to start. Both of them are this month's guests on Strip Search...2023-09-1140 min
