Dedicated to Penny, Dick, and My (Dear and Departed) Grandparents, Who Lately Find (or Found) New Yorker Cartoons Totally Baffling
Filed under: Seal Barks Tagged: cartoons, Margaret Talbot, Roy Delgado
A tongue-in-cheek cartoon by New Yorker cartoonist-in-waiting Roy Delgado. More about the frighteningly good CGI, or Completely Good Issue, that is the Dec. 4 magazine on Monday, when the Pick of the Issue will be awarded. I keep laughing and laughing at Margaret Talbot’s line “Somehow, I don’t think she meant Princess Anne.” Oh man that is funny. More culture pieces from Talbot, please.

Cartoon book due out in July 2007…with 100 cartoons, all NYer rejects, but all picked up by the nation’s major magazines and publications.
107 pages with foreword/bio explaining the title: “A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE NEW YORKER,” by Roy Delgado.
Roy, really?? Tell us more!
Usual unfortunate delays have moved the book to around an October release. Reviewers include Gene Perret, Bob Hope’s top gag writer for 24 years (and an Emmy winner), Sam Gross—one of the top 3 favorite New Yorker cartoonists of the last 40 years—plus Chas. Preston, Cartoon Editor of the Wall St. Journal, and other well-known editors, etc.
Book will be available from Amazon, Barnes & Noble and bookstores everywhere.
Indeed, “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the New Yorker.”
