Living Dead
Media Mutt is Maine's Media Watchdog
Pandolph – a Portland cartoonist whose work includes the comic strips “Elderberries” , “Barkeater Lake” and “Toby, Robot Satan” (gocomics.com/toby), as well as work for Mad magazine, The Bollard and other publications – insisted in an e-mail that, while he does spend a considerable amount of time at Gritty McDuff’s pub in Portland’s Old Port, he has never died there. If he appeared comatose on occasion, he said it’s merely because he was absorbing material for use in his various projects.
In the interest of full disclosure, Pandolph is a friend of mine and the illustrator of the Media Mutt logo.
