Another episode of my conversation with my New Yorker colleague and husband, Michael Maslin.

Today, we talked about whether or not there is a “formula” for creating cartoons, what it’s like to have covid as a cartoonist, and the many wonderful Halloween covers The New Yorker has published over the last 90 decades.

Here are some of the covers we discussed, and then some.

Cover by Abe Birbaum

Link to the Charles Addams’ cover we discussed.

The cover by R. O. Blechman, wonderful animator and I took his class in NYC when I was 24!

These are two that I like.

Cover by Perry Barlow

Cover by Rea Irvin

Happy Sunday, see you tomorrow.
