“Being a cartoonist is like having a bear by the tail. You can never let go.” — Ernie Bushmiller
In “Erniology”, the long-time creator of the comic “Nancy” is honored as a holy fool, sitting on his throne, while mayhem ensues. His corny comics were easy to find, easy to read and easy to understand, even when he would change things up with some unexpected imaginative stretches.
