As a former student of Gary I can say he is delightful. I would often pull up a seat next to him near the end of class and we would talk about living in the south and drawing armadillos. It’s too bad people have taken advantage of his openness and now I see why he’s so grumpy on the internet. Respect peoples boundaries!
So cool to 'meet' Gary through interviews like this. My dad acquired some of his wonderful paintings and prints and I am so lucky to have them hanging in my house now. They bring me constant daily joy. If you see him again please let Gary know some of work stayed in Dallas and is well loved. : )
WATTA TREAT!!! Always dug all the RAW/Jimbo stuff, and grabbed any and all "Playhouse" stuff (every Allred is a massive Pee Wee fan)! One of our fave family treasures is an unopened (we also have a couple opened for play) Playhouse box that Gary drew ALL OVER when we asked him to sign it at ComiCon (where we bought it and there he was!) in 1995! Interviews like this always get me excited about treasure hunting. Panter-Mania!
To answer Noah's question about Panter's current popularity in Japan: I'd say he's read as much or more so than the Japanese artists he mentions (Terry Johnson and co.) I've seen his books at Taco che in Nakano as well as more artsy, hip traditional books stores in Aoyama
Wasn't Funny Garbage the company that was hired to make the CNN 9/11 Victim Memorial? That's super weird, I didn't know they started out as Gary Panter fans. I looked up John Carlin and he's also a cartoon author himself, besides being a news guy, since he wrote the graphic novel about one of his favorite topics: Nelson Mandela!

What a pleasure to have another NVS conversation to listen to on my commute. Thank you!

Gary casually showing off with the signed comic. Love that self awareness.

Does anyone know the name of the Lynda Barry collection Noah mentions at 25:12 ?
Thanks in advance B)
Are you one third native? LOL
An evolution of Pee Wee to other art would have been excellent rather than it just calcifying in nostalgia.
Lance is first
Good job Lance!
I cry and then laugh, laugh and then cry.
Noah is going to hell
