The Return Of Kiskaloo. Long Live Ogo!

Chris Sanders "Kiskaloo" is returning to the Internet tomorrow! I don't know any other details besides what was posted at http://kiskaloo.com earlier today.

"After a long absence, I am pleased and excited to announce that my webcomic KISKALOO will be returning. I’ve been burning the midnight oil drawing and inking the copious backlog of comics I’d written, but till now just didn’t have the time to get to. Beginning Monday, June 19th, we’ll re-run all the original strips one per day so that everyone unfamiliar with it has a chance to catch up. Then, on Monday, July 18th, the first of the new KISKALOO strips will debut!"

A neat new Instagram account also popped up today:

The world just go a little better.

"You have forgotten who you are and so have forgotten me. "

"Look at the stars. The great kings of the past look down on us from those stars....So whenever you feel alone, just remember that those kings will always be there to guide you. And so will I."

"Remember who you are. You are my son and the one true king."

Adult Simba: Father!

Happy Birthday Gertie The Dinosaur! Released June 1914 by Winsor McCay.

Happy Birthday Gertie The Dinosaur!

It seems that I'm back to making animated graphics again and my latest one is an ode to Winsor McCay's original "Gertie The Dinosaur" from 1914. Winsor McCay is considered the father of animation and Gertie is an absolute classic piece of animation. I was lucky enough to grow up in the beautiful city of Spring Lake, Michigan which is also Winsor McCay's hometown. My local library was an animation treasure trove. The first book I read about Winsor McCay was John Canemaker's 1987 "Winsor McCay- His Life And Art". It has since been updated and in 2005 a hardcover version of this book was published. To this day, John Canemaker is one of my absolute favorite authors. You can find the 2005 version on Amazon for about $25.00 and it's a wonderful book.

A little about Gertie The Dinosaur from Public Domain Review:

"Gertie the Dinosaur is a 1914 American animated short film by Winsor McCay. Although not the first animated film, as is sometimes thought, it was the first cartoon to feature a character with an appealing personality. The appearance of a true character distinguished it from earlier animated “trick films”, such as those of Blackton and Cohl, and makes it the predecessor to later popular cartoons such as those by Walt Disney. The film was also the first to be created using keyframe animation. The film has been selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry, and was named #6 of The 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time in a 1994 survey of animators and cartoon historians by Jerry Beck."
