Old Skool Ink Slinger Say Cheese! Pt. 2: Chic Young

Chic Young “Creator of Dumb Dora”-that’s dumb! Everybody knows Chic Young created BLONDIE! Wait this photo is from 1928, two years away from the creation of Dagwood’s crush. Murat Bernard Young was just 27 years old here at the drawing board-Young at art! I’m presenting 15 vintage cartoonists photos from a very rare very early promotion. Stay tooned!

    [...] Incidentally, ever want to know what Popeye creator E.C. Segar or Blondie creator Chic Young looked like? Craig Yoe has you covered, with more to come. [...]

I.T.C.H is looking forward to your thoughts. Please, no flame. Thanks!
