Gary Larson

    August 14, 1950

    Gary Larson is the creator of the world-renowned comic strip "The Far Side." His humor, often described as paranoid, draws inspiration from his childhood and his brother Dan. Larson's works are distinguished by a unique perspective on the world, blending science, animals, and absurd situations. His style is full of surprising punchlines and unexpected juxtapositions that prompt readers to look at the ordinary in a new light.

      "The sixties offered the easy aphoristic wisdom of Charles Schulz, the self-satisfied seventies the pricjly satire of Garry Trudeau. The Reagan eighties have spawned the demonic, subtle and slightly despairing humor of a former music-store clerk." -Rolling Stone "Many of Larson's frowsy, no-nonsense women - astringent in their dowdy dresses, their upswept hairdos clamped glumly in place like helmets; eyeless behind opaque oval glasses that waggishly exaggerate their long and drawn visages - are ringers for the relatives and neighbors of my childhood."His work - like superior humor and music the world over - is capable of blowing the lid oof of some hidden, weeded-over, back-alley regions of ourselves." -Al Young, Things Ain't What They Used to Be
