I love the fact that this cartoon pissed soooo many people off. You’d think he was slagging off your mothers the way you all are whinging about it.

So, long thread short: Keith thinks the NCS should be more like the AAEC, and Daryl thinks the AAEC should be more like the NCS … got it.

Heh, heh…you crazy youngsters with your new fangled ways, wiping your dirty mouth on your sleeves! No wonder you want your own award!

Being a fan of Keith Knight work and as well as being a cartoonist myself, I like to point out that I don’t think the Keith meant to be offensive.

Creativity takes over and a Cartoonist goes with it. Keith
develop the art of taking any situation that he had experienced
and create a cartoon out of it with a twist of humor.

Agree with him or disagree with Keith Knight, there is no
denying his creative brilliant.

When a Star Celebrity is present at an event, their present
alone pays for any food or drink they may consume. Don’t
be petty . . . wise up and don’t take life sooooo serious.

We all on Planet Earth for a short time . . . be more like Keith
Knight and see the humor of it all.

P.S.: I would consider being a pay member of National Cartoonist Society merely because Keith Knight was a
member. (Oop! You guys might conder that statement offensive . . . My bad).

Does the NCS give awards to folks who doodle on napkins at lunch? There is a catagory, right? Do I need 2 letters from my waiter? Do I mail in a copy of the napkin or the original?
Thanks!

I haven’t received my two glowing letters of recommendation yet.

I think the NCS must hate webcomics!

Spudart, if you read the thread (skimming never works, I found that out the hard way in college) you’ll find that both your questions were answered in depth over and over and over again.

I’ve skimmed through all 177 comments here (wow). I have two questions.

1) Does the NCS only give awards to NCS members?

2) Is it really that hard to make a webcomic category for awards? It’s a growing viable medium. Give a webcomic artist an award. Even if he’s not a member. Doesn’t seem too hard to me.

Everyone’s happy. :-)
