Reader input is key to finding best comics

O

ne remarkable outcome of “Bubbles,” which debuted in May, was the outpouring of feedback we received when it was published. We read each response and used them to again assemble 43 comics for your review in this encore edition.

“I enjoyed reading the ‘Bubbles’ edition,” one reader told us in our first nationwide “Bubbles” comics survey that totaled more than 12,000 participants and 2,600 written responses. “I laughed or at least smiled at each cartoon.”

And another reader wrote, “I love ‘Bubbles.’

Have not read them all. I keep it and read a few at a time.”

“Bubbles” is a large stage with an almost endless parade of characters ready to audition, earn your applause and, maybe someday, land on the comics pages of your local newspaper. This sampler of strips and panels curated from recent offerings from the cartoonists contains some new comics to “Bubbles,” some fan favorites and some just for fun. For most comics readers, the more the merrier.

“Include a ‘Bubbles’ section in the paper each week,” a reader suggested.

And for a few readers, well, we might have overdone it a bit.

“Way too many comics in the ‘Bubbles’ section to review in one day, some of us have other things to do,” one reader noted. “Perhaps you could spread them out over a few days.”

We suggest that you pace yourself with “Bubbles” because we all can use a chuckle from time to time, especially for a good cause — helping to make the comics pages even better.

And reading great comics daily may improve your life, as these survey responses make clear: “I know comics are expensive, but please consider more in the daily paper. I find they are the best start to my day, and provide a relief from all the bad news,” one reader said.

“It is important to keep newspapers alive; comics and cartoons add pleasure, even balance to the current news of the day,” commented another reader.

“Please don’t ‘quit’ the funny pages,” wrote a longtime comics fan.

We agree comics are worth keeping around, and we have no plans to change that course. When we created “Bubbles,” working with some of the most respected comics syndicates, we had one thought — more is better, but reader enjoyment is even more important. And that evaluation process takes time, patience and ongoing reader involvement.

We also learned from the survey that the combination of “Bubbles” and reader feedback can prompt two strong emotions with the comics-page faithful: 1. Create fear that a comic will be replaced.

2. Create hope that a comic will be replaced.

Offered more than one reader, “How about a poll to determine which comics should be discontinued?”

Comics also can unleash a variety of feelings along the love-hate spectrum. It’s best to tread carefully.

This “Bubbles” survey response might serve as a warning to editors. “Thank you for inviting reader response before radically changing the current comic section.” Gulp.

Still, some readers wrote that they believe there are even more comic-strip stars out there. Two comments stood out as our favorites from the “Bubbles” survey: “I can draw neither a straight line with a ruler nor a circle with a compass. If I could, I believe I could give most of the artists whose work appears in the funnies a run for their money.”

Another reader shared a terrific idea: “I think it would be fun to have area schools submit a cartoon once a month and see if we have any budding cartoonists out there.”

Reader input is key to helping these comics rise from the “Bubbles” section to the main stage — your daily newspaper. So, please enjoy “Bubbles” and respond to the e-mailed survey that will follow in a few days. Thank you for helping us find out which ones will make the cut.

Comics characters assemble. It’s time to impress. The competition is heating up.

Judges, pencils ready. Let’s find out which comics’ bubbles will rise and which ones will burst.

It’s showtime.

BY LINIERS

Led by an independent and insightful girl, Henrietta, who loves to read and inhabit the worlds she reads about, “Macanudo� was started 16 years ago in Argentina. The comic made its debut in the United States nearly four years ago.

Art and optimism at heart RICARDO LINIERS SIRI, who is known simply as Liniers, is anything but a simple character. He is an illustrator, cartoonist, writer, publisher, and college lecturer. He also is a creative soul with a deep passion for art.

His vivid imagination is on display daily in his beautifully crafted comic strip, “Macanudo.” His illustrations and use of watercolors create a world of wonder for the characters who are, well, simply endearing.

Led by an independent and insightful girl who loves to read and inhabit the worlds she reads about, “Macanudo” prompts Liniers’ audience to stop, pay attention and ask good questions about the real world we inhabit.

“No other comic strip will invite you to ponder the mysteries of life and great literature with a little girl named Henrietta and her stuffed bear, Mandelbaum, or waddle alongside a penguin through chilly, wind-swept dunes at the tip of South America,” explains the King Features Syndicate, a unit of the Hearst company that began distributing the comic in the United States two months ago.

Liniers was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and started “Macanudo” 16 years ago in the newspaper La Nación. With almost 1 million followers on Facebook, he is among South America’s most celebrated cartoonists.

This past spring in New York City, the Society of Illustrators hosted a major exhibition of more than 125 pieces of his original artwork, including prints from “Macanudo.”

“I was amazed that they would even consider a show and so honored when I saw my artwork up on walls that have shown such great artists,” Liniers said.

‘Macanudo’ cartoonist brings fresh voice to U.S.

IS THERE A MEANING BEHIND WHY YOU NAMED YOUR COMIC STRIP ‘MACANUDO?’ LINIERS: Macanudo in Spanish means something like great or cool. I began the strip at a time when Argentina was going through a dark period. I wanted there to be a tiny bit of optimism in at least one part of the paper, and this name seemed like a good start.

WITH WHICH CHARACTER DO YOU MOST CLOSELY RELATE? LINIERS: I would say Henrietta, because she’s a solitary child who loves to read and imagine that she inhabits the worlds she reads about.

FANS HAVE ENJOYED YOUR UNIQUE DRAWING STYLE AS MUCH AS YOUR CHARACTERS. ONE REALLY CAN’T GO WITHOUT THE OTHER. CAN THEY? LINIERS: I’m very old fashioned when it comes to drawing and technique. I still use India ink and water colors. I think it’s because I admire the old strip artists and somehow want to go back to a time when comic art was so spectacular it had to take up an entire page in the paper (“Krazy Kat” comes to mind).

Ricardo Liniers Siri, known simply as Liniers And now, American newspaper readers are getting acquainted with “Macanudo.” That’s happy news for the upbeat Liniers, who is teaching Spanish at Dartmouth College and is participating in a fellowship program with the Center for Cartoon Studies.

Does “Macanudo” have a supporting role in educating his students? “I don’t know.

‘Macanudo’ doesn’t teach anything. It’s just

a medium to ask questions,” Liniers said.”

I would say that the students need to ask as many questions as they can to find out who they want to become.”

We had the opportunity to ask him a few questions (at right) to learn more about “Macanudo,” which is featured on Page 23 of this edition.

— John Humenik, Lee Enterprises

HENRIETTA AND HER TEDDY BEAR, MANDELBAUM, REALLY NEED EACH OTHER. WHY DOES THIS PAIR PLAY SUCH A LARGE ROLE IN ‘MACANUDO?’ LINIERS: Because the stuffy is the first character that a child creates and breathes life into. It wouldn’t surprise me if Henrietta were to become an artist.

WHAT MAKES OLGA, THE BLUE MONSTER, SUCH A LOVABLE CHARACTER? LINIERS: Maybe Olga is our inner child, the one we have left when we grow up, and there’s always some part of us that wants to go back there. Or maybe it’s just that the only thing it says is Olga.

Characters in ‘Macanudo,’ from left, the Penguins, Henrietta and Mandelbaum, the teddy bear.

WHO DO THE PENGUINS MOST REMIND YOU OF IN EVERYDAY LIFE? LINIERS: They are the guardians of nature and they remind us that we should take care of the world around us because it is beautiful and may well disappear if we are not careful.

‘RUBES’

‘Everything is funnier with a cow’

BY PHIL HANDS, Wisconsin State Journal staff editorial cartoonist

I’ve recently had the pleasure of discussing the weird world of cartoons with “Rubes” creator, Leigh Rubin. Every year Leigh makes the trek from California to Wisconsin for the World Dairy Expo. When he’s not eating ice cream and cheese curds, Leigh is kind enough to join me for several talks around town, where we show surprisingly pleasant audiences how two very different cartoonists work.

Have you always been interested in being a cartoonist? Did you ever have other jobs or a Plan B? “If I ever wrote a biography it would be called “No Plan B.” I’ve always wanted to be an artist. I’ve been drawing cartoons since kindergarten. I knew I wanted to be an artist and this is a close as it’s going to get after 35 years.”

Was your family supportive of your cartooning?

“Yeah. When I drew that first cartoon in kindergarten my parents really laughed at it. It was a cartoon of a giant and I drew it so big I had to put its head on the other side of the piece of paper. My dad was an avid comics reader for his whole life. Early on I worked in my dad’s print shop, so I had a job while building my client base. My parents were really supportive and proud. You should have seen their refrigerator; it was covered (with my cartoons).”

Who’s your inspiration?

“Really early on, the Warner Brothers and MGM cartoons. The stuff you could only see on Saturday morning. Bugs Bunny and Road Runner and Tom and Jerry.

Really silly/violent stuff. But a lot the action happened off screen so you didn’t see the violence.

I really like that and I try to do it in my cartoons. You want to leave something to the reader’s imagination. People that read cartoons are the most intelligent people on the planet. If they read mine, they’re really, really smart.”

Many of your cartoons feature cows. Discuss.

“Everything is funnier with a cow.”

Leigh Rubin

You now are the official cartoonist in residence at Rochester Institute of Technology? What does that mean?

“I’m being brought in to speak to a variety of classrooms, from surgical illustration to comic illustration, to discuss to what it’s like to be a working cartoonist. I’m sharing my experience and my viewpoints about art and the future of cartooning. My goal is to inspire students… to become doctors and lawyers. That’s where the real money is.

Do you have any advice for young aspiring cartoonists?

“I believe I answered that when I said ‘become a doctor or a lawyer.’

“But seriously: Practice. Practice.

Practice. Develop your own style.

Look at other people’s work for inspiration, but develop your own style because that is what will separate you in the end. Be sure to enjoy yourself and the process of creating. Oh, and marry wealthy…that would be ‘Plan B.’ ” See ‘Rubes’ on Page 3
