Animal Wednesday - Mr. Duck

For Animal Wednesday.

From the Dilbert Blog by Scott Adams:

"One of the hardest parts of my job is figuring out what other people will think is funny. You’d think that would be easy, but my own sense of humor is far from the mainstream. I can’t assume others will laugh at the same things I find funny.

In 1988, before I submitted the first fifty Dilbert comics for syndication, I asked my friends to sort them into the piles they liked most and least. My plan was to only submit the comics my friends liked most. Surprisingly, I found zero correlation across friends. One person’s favorite was another person’s most hated. In the end, I submitted all fifty comics. Apparently that worked."

I feel much the same way. I had an art show this weekend with my comics at Sundial Books in Chincoteague. The show went extremely well. I've never shown my comics in a gallery before so it was kind of weird.

Mr. Duck is one I omitted from the show because I thought it would not be understood.
