“I hope I get to do it forever,” he said.

The cartoonist is also a fine art painter and works on personal projects in his free time. As for the future, Davidson hopes to soon publish a book with his accumulation of 30 years of comics, a project that has been a longtime coming.

“It’s about 10 or five years in the making,” he said.
