LAST Action Geek cartoon in InCity Times
After alot of soul-searching (as contrived as that may sound)
and talking with friends, professional peers, other artists, etc.
I decided to voluntarily end my run of editorial / personal
cartoons within the pages of the InCity Times.
Publisher Rosalie Tirella does what she does, but I just don't
want to be a part of what it is that she does anymore.
I only wish that Worcester had any other print options:
The Worcester Telegram barely covers local issues as it is
and would never run a cartoon such as mine is.
Worcester Magazine opted to get rid of my cartoon in favor
of fluff that really didn't make any waves whatsoever.
They claimed to have wanted a "younger, fresher voice" which,
at the time, was merely code for "you're too loud / controversial,
Doug" and "we'd rather take on Andy Fish's less wave-making,
more easily-palletable to our readers girlfriend". Whatever.
WoMag may think it's the alternative, but it really doesn't
go far enough to really represent Worcester.
Action Geek will continue in 'zine form, online form, other
artistic endeavor-form. I refuse to compromise my message.
I've never pulled any punches. My cartoons speak from my own
uniquely damaged yet ever-hopeful heart. Those who know me
best know that I'm passionate about what I do and only wish
that where I live was more accepting of what I say / create.
And on that note, here's the last Action Geek - InCity Times cartoon:
