Bruce Plante rewcently did a cartoon showing Pistol Pete shooting out the letter “C” from the BCS sign. Is there any way of getting a larger copy of this cartoon? It is a classic and I would like to frame it. I woukd be willing to pay for the print. Thank you, Ben Hoke

I broke the story on Bruce’s departure with a story on Chattanoogan.Com, which you can access in the “Happenings” section. It was fun to scoop the Times Free Press on its own story; however, I am personally sad that Bruce is leaving. He really does have a special talent. Our loss is certainly Tulsa’s gain.

Congrats Bruce! Nicely done. I was one of the top five for that position, no joke. But, it’s nice to see a talented cartoonist land that position.

Does anyone know if the Chattanooga Times Free Press will consider replacing Bruce?

For those keeping track…

Tulsa World fired their long-time cartoonist Dave Simpson for plagiarizing in 2005. They hired Doug Marlette in 2006, only to die in a car accident just few months ago. And now, Bruce Plante will be at the paper.

Let’s hope that this one will actually last.
