Andy BaioWent to the Billy Ireland Cartoon Museum in Columbus, and found myself unexpectedly overwhelmed seeing original art from cartoonists who shaped my childhood: pencil roughs, eraser marks, Wite-Out, and all.
Calvin’s hair was originally different, but Watterson’s editor at the syndicate convinced him to change it, suggesting readers would want to see his eyes.
As great as the finished printed strips are, seeing the raw original panels at their full size lets you see all the little decisions and details that went into making each one.
Joseph Kohlmann@andybaio Ugh, it’s beautiful. Thanks for sharing these, Andy 🙇🏼♂️🤩✨
