Many artists create comics to talk about their lives, express their inner thoughts, or even discuss social issues, and so does artist Dave Coverly, our guest today.
Dave Coverly is a famous cartoonist from Michigan. He is the father of many comics, such as "Night of the Living Worms", "Dogs Are People, Too", "The Very Inappropriate Word" and so on. However, he is best known for being the creator of the comic “Speed Bump”, which runs internationally in hundreds of newspapers and websites, including the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, The Globe & Mail (Toronto), and the Detroit Free Press. Moreover, this comic was named “Best in Newspaper Panels” by the National Cartoonists Society in 1995, 2003, and 2014. In 2009, this organization also gave Dave Coverly its highest honor, the prestigious Reuben Award, for “Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year”. With a series of achievements, we all understand why his cartoons have amassed a lot of fans.
Dave said, “If life were like a movie, the results would be the same.” When it comes to “Speed Bump”, the artist calls it a sad, mean, ironic, yet humorous comedy. According to Dave Coverly, there will be individuals who disagree with a few issues mentioned in comics, but at least in the form of jokes, these problems are shown precisely rather than others.
Nowadays, there is a lot of hatred in the world. So, let Dave Coverly show you its different sides and crack you up with his hilarious illustrations. Absolutely, they're worth your time. Let's get it on!
