Check out the finished comics linked above. These are truly dark economic times for the friends of CLAW so donations to our Young Cartoonist of the Future Scholarship fund not as frequent this year… but all the more special, which brings our grand total up into the $500’s. Thank you so much for your donations!  If you showed up to the event and made a donation, you got to take home one of these incredible mystery monkey tile original artworks:

IN OTHER NEWS…

CLAW is considering formation of a sub-support group within our body of Cartoonists specifically for Cartoon/Comic-strip writers.  Here is what we have so far:

  • Writers who join the CLAW would be known as Quills.
  • Their dues would be $60 a year, not $70
  • They would not have a vote.
  • They would be judged on their body of work in which they have shown actual collaboration with a cartoonist.
  • They can only be sponsored by cartoonist, or a sponsor would be appointed for them via the four eyes if they pass four-eye assessment.
  • Four eyes will determine the leader of the quills, just as all leadership is determined by the four-eyes.
  • The leader of the quills will be given the title of Alpha, and regarding duration of leadership, will follow the same rules as the other leaders of the CLAW. Past Alpha will be referred to as Omega.
  • Letters will be assigned Quills. There can only be one Alpha symbol worn, Omega’s can wear their symbol as long as their members.
  • It’s suggested that Quills would wear berets instead of fez.
