The cartoon blog of Andertoons cartoonist Mark Anderson. He discusses his cartoons, cartooning, comics and, oddly enough, LEGO.
I’m very pleased to announce another great cartoon blog in the making!
My cartoon compatriot, my brother in bristol board, my… guy I’m close to in a gag related metaphor, Mike Lynch, has launched his MySpace blog with all sorts of good cartoon chat.
There’s a Krazy Kat mystery, a look inside gag cartooning, and a big orange cartoon-related cat that’s actually entertaining!

New York’s Overlook Lounge (formerly Costello’s) drew some of the cartoon world’s finest talents yesterday who, in turn, drew on the walls.
Cartoonist Mike Lynch organized a gaggle of great artists including New York Daily News legend Bill Gallo, Playboy’s Don Orehek, The New Yorker‘s Mort Gerberg, John Caldwell and Sam Gross, Beetle Bailey’s Mort Walker, Howard Huge/Lockhorn‘s John Reiner and a slew of others who, in exchange for some food and beer, drew a gigantic cartoon mural.
The new art will be great company for the Overlook’s landmark 1976 cartoon mural by luminaries including Stan Lee, Gil Kane, Milton Caniff and Sergio Aragonnes.
Check out the video (Quicktime only, sorry…) from NY1, this article from the New York Daily News, and this one from the New York Post.
Mike has also been kind enough to pass along some great photos from the event:

Hey, just a heads up that Andertoons Cartoon Blog reader, commenter, and all around nice guy, Mike “Blind Lemon” Lynch is quoted in an article about Blondie in the Christian Science Monitor.
Cool, no?
I just want to take the opportunity to thank cartoonist/friend/raconteur, Mike Lynch, for his terrific blogs this week!
I’d suspected he had some great stuff in the wings, but, frankly, even I didn’t know how fascinating some of the stuff he would unleash would be!
My favorites entries would have to be “Death Draws the Line,” because I just love that sort of campy old stuff, “The Explaining Hand,” for shedding light on something that we all do, but almost never think about (until now, dammit!) and his “Sin City” post because we get a picture of Rosario Dawson in bondage lingerie without me having to defend/explain it to my wife. 🙂
Thanks too to everyone who stopped by and was kind enough to leave some comments. I think Mike felt very ‘at home’ in our little corner of the blogosphere.
Please stop by his website and check out his cartoons. Just amazing stuff.
I look forward to getting back to blogging next week, but the vacation has been good. As I told Mike earlier this week, I can actually feel my brain recharging.
I’ve got some vacation pics, some scintillating Sin City speak (how’s that for alliteration?!), and plenty more good old cartoon talk. Here’s one more thanks to Mike, and I’ll see you all on Monday.
And here I am, high above my compound. Let’s not say this is goodbye, let’s just agree to meet again one day, in the happy land of Andertoons!
My thanks to Mark for this very fun opportunity. I’m honored to have walked in your bloggin’ shoes, mate!
