DescriptionMichael Jantze is the cartoonist of The Norm comic strip which was syndicated by King Features from 1996-2004. The protagonist Theodore Norman Miller was a young single man working as a graphic artist. The year in which Norm pretended to be his friend Reine's fiance to fool her parents was hilarious. I used to read the strip in my local newspaper The Argus and then followed it online until it's end in 2006. Michael continued the story of Norm and Reine in the Knocked Out Loaded graphic novel and restarted the strip as The Norm 4.0. The Cartoon Art Museum holds an annual Sketch-a-Thon fundraiser at their SDCC booth where professional comics and animation artists spend an one-hour-shift drawing for fans. The fundraiser went online in 2020 during the pandemic and sketches are available onsite and online the last couple years. Norm and his friends were active people and I asked for a San Francisco 49er. The team has had highs and lows, but I enjoyed many great seasons. Michael dressed his Mr. Lux character in the team uniform.Social/Sharing |
