Doonesbury is a comic strip by American cartoonist Garry Trudeau that chronicles the adventures and lives of an array of characters of various ages, professions, and backgrounds, from the President of the United states of america to the title character, Michael Doonesbury, who has progressed from a college student to a youthful senior denizen over the decades.

Created in "the throes of '60s and '70s counterculture",[i] and ofttimes political in nature, Doonesbury features characters representing a range of affiliations, but the drawing is noted for a liberal viewpoint. The proper name "Doonesbury" is a combination of the discussion doone (prep school slang for someone who is clueless, inattentive, or careless) and the surname of Charles Pillsbury, Trudeau's roommate at Yale University.[2]

Doonesbury is written and penciled past Garry Trudeau, and so inked and lettered by an assistant: Don Carlton[3] so Todd Pound. Lord's day strips are colored by George Corsillo.[4] Doonesbury was a daily strip through most of its existence, only since February 2014 information technology has run repeat strips Monday through Saturday, and new strips on Sunday.

History [edit]

The start Doonesbury drawing, from Oct 26, 1970

Doonesbury began equally a continuation of Bull Tales, which appeared in the Yale University educatee newspaper, the Yale Daily News, from 1968 to 1970. It focused on local campus events at Yale.[v]

Doonesbury proper debuted equally a daily strip in twenty-eight newspapers on Oct 26, 1970[six] (it being the first strip from Universal Press Syndicate).[vii] [ failed verification ] A Sunday strip began on March 21, 1971.[8] Many of the early strips were reprints of the Bull Tales cartoons, with some changes to the drawings and plots. B. D.'s helmet changed from having a "Y" (for Yale) to a star (for the fictional Walden Higher). Mike and B. D. started Doonesbury every bit roommates; they were not roommates in Balderdash Tales.

Doonesbury became known for its social and political commentary. Every bit of the mid-2010s it is syndicated in approximately 1,400 newspapers worldwide.[9]

In May 1975, Doonesbury became the commencement daily comic strip to win a Pulitzer Prize, taking the laurels for Editorial Cartooning.[5] That year, US President Gerald Ford told the Radio and Telly Correspondents' Association at their annual dinner, "In that location are just 3 major vehicles to go along us informed as to what is going on in Washington: the electronic media, the impress media, and Doonesbury, not necessarily in that order."[10]

In 1977, Trudeau wrote a script for a 26-infinitesimal animated special, A Doonesbury Special, which was produced and directed by Trudeau along with John Hubley (who died during the storyboarding stage)[11] and Faith Hubley. The special was commencement broadcast by NBC on November 27, 1977.[12] It won a Special Jury Award at the Cannes International Film Festival for best short motion-picture show, and received an Oscar nomination (for all-time animated short film), both in 1978.[11] Voice actors for the special included Barbara Harris, William Sloane Coffin, Jr., Jack Gilford and Will Hashemite kingdom of jordan. Also included were 2 songs "sung" by the character Jimmy Thudpucker (actually player/vocaliser/songwriter/producer James Allen "Jimmy" Brewer), entitled "Stop in the Heart" and "I Do Believe", also office of the "Special". While the compositions and performances were credited to "Jimmy Thudpucker", they were in fact co-written and sung by Brewer, who too co-wrote and provided the vocals for "Ginny'due south Song", a 1976 single on the Warner Bros. label, and Jimmy Thudpucker's Greatest Hits, an LP released by Windsong Records, John Denver'due south subsidiary of RCA Records.

1983–1984 hiatus [edit]

Trudeau took a 22-calendar month hiatus, from January 1983 to Oct 1984. Before the break in the strip, the characters were eternal higher students, living in a commune together nearly Walden College, which was modeled after Trudeau's alma mater, Yale. During the break, Trudeau helped create a Broadway musical of the strip, showing the graduation of the main characters. The Broadway adaptation opened at the Biltmore Theatre on Nov 21, 1983, and played 104 performances. Elizabeth Swados composed the music for Trudeau'due south book and lyrics.

Afterward the hiatus [edit]

The strip resumed some time subsequently the events in the musical, with further changes having taken identify after the end of the musical's plot. While Mike, Marking, Zonker, B.D., and Boopsie were all now graduates, B.D. and Boopsie were living in Malibu, California, where B.D. was a third-string quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams, and Boopsie was making a living from walk-on and cameo roles. Mark was living in Washington, DC, working for National Public Radio. Michael and J.J. had gotten married, and Mike had dropped out of business school to start work in an advertising bureau in New York City. Zonker, however non ready for the "existent world", was living with Mike and J.J. until he was accustomed as a medical student at his Uncle Duke's "Baby Doc College" in Haiti.

Prior to the hiatus, the strip's characters had aged just slightly. But when Trudeau returned to Doonesbury, the characters began to age in something close to existent time, as in Gasoline Alley and For Better or for Worse, Since then, the principal characters' ages and career developments accept tracked that of standard media portrayals of baby boomers, with jobs in advertising, police force enforcement, and the dot-com blast. Current events are mirrored through the original characters, their offspring (the "2nd generation"), and occasional new characters.

Garry Trudeau received the National Cartoonist Society Paper Comic Strip Honor for 1994, and their Reuben Award for 1995 for his work on the strip.

Alpha House and hiatuses: 2013 [edit]

Doonesbury 's syndicate, Universal Uclick, appear on May 29, 2013, that the comic strip would keep hiatus from June 10 to Labor Day of that year while Garry Trudeau worked on his streaming video comedy Alpha Firm, which was picked upward by Amazon Studios.[13] "Doonesbury Flashbacks" were offered during those weeks, merely due to the unusually long hiatus, some newspapers opted to run different comic strips instead.[14] Sunday strips returned every bit scheduled, simply the daily strip's hiatus was extended until November 2013.[15] After Alpha House was retained for a 2d flavour in February 2014, Trudeau announced that he would at present produce only Lord's day strips for the foreseeable future.[sixteen] Since March iii, 2014, the strip has offered reruns starting from the very showtime of its history as opposed to the recent ones that re-run when Trudeau is on vacation. Alpha Business firm was cancelled in 2016,[17] simply Trudeau did non return to drawing Monday-to-Saturday strips, and continued his Sunday-only schedule.

In a 2018 interview with Rolling Stone, Trudeau said that while Donald Trump appears in only a express number of strips, "for the last ii years, he's been subtext in almost all of them."[eighteen]

Style [edit]

With the exception of Walden Higher, Trudeau has oftentimes used real-life settings, based on real scenarios, but with fictional results. Because of lead times, real-world events have rendered some of Trudeau's comics unusable, such as a 1973 serial featuring John Ehrlichman, a 1989 series set in Tiananmen Square in Beijing, Red china, a 1993 series involving Zoë Baird, and a 2005 serial involving Harriet Miers. Trudeau has also displayed fluency in various forms of jargon, including those of existent estate agents, flying attendants, computer scientists, journalists, presidential aides, and soldiers in Republic of iraq.

Walden Higher [edit]

"Walden College" redirects here. Non to be confused with Walden University.

The unnamed college attended past the principal characters was later given the proper noun "Walden College", revealed to be in Connecticut (the aforementioned state as Yale), and depicted as devolving into a third-rate establishment under the weight of grade inflation, slipping bookish standards, and the cease of tenure, issues that Trudeau has consistently revisited since the original characters graduated. Some of the second generation of Doonesbury characters take attended Walden, a venue Trudeau uses to accelerate his concerns about academic standards in the United states.

President Rex, the leader of Walden College, was originally intended as a parody of Kingman Brewster, President of Yale, just all that remains of that is a certain physical resemblance.[ clarification needed ]

Employ of real-life politicians as characters [edit]

Even though Doonesbury frequently features real-life U.Due south. politicians, they are rarely depicted with their real faces. Originally, strips featuring the President of the United States would show an external view of the White House, with dialogue emerging from inside. During the Gerald Ford administration, characters would exist shown speaking to Ford at press conferences, and fictional dialogue supposedly spoken by Ford would exist written every bit coming "off-panel". Similarly, while having several characters as students in a grade taught by Henry Kissinger, the dialogue made upward for Kissinger would also come up from "off-console" (although Kissinger had earlier appeared as a character with his face shown in a 1972 series of strips in which he met Mark Slackmeyer while the latter was on a trip to Washington). Sometimes hands, or in rare cases, the dorsum of heads would besides exist seen.

Afterwards, personal symbols reflecting some aspect of their grapheme came into employ. For example, during the 1980s, character Ron Headrest served as a doppelgänger for Ronald Reagan and was depicted every bit a computer-generated bogus-intelligence, an epitome based on the television receiver character Max Headroom. Members of the Bush-league family take been depicted equally invisible. During his term as Vice President, George H. Westward. Bush was first depicted as completely invisible, his words emanating from a lilliputian "voice box" in the air. (In one strip, published March 20, 1988, the vice president almost materialized, but just made it to an outline earlier reverting to invisibility.[19])

George W. Bush was symbolized by a Stetson chapeau atop the same invisible point, because he was Governor of Texas prior to his presidency (Trudeau accused him of existence "all lid and no cattle", reiterating the label of Bush past columnist Molly Ivins). The indicate became a giant asterisk (a la Roger Maris) following the 2000 presidential elections and the controversy over vote-counting. Subsequently, President Bush'southward hat was changed to a Roman military machine helmet (once more, atop an asterisk) representing imperialism. Towards the stop of his first term, the helmet became battered, with the gold work starting to come off and with clumps of bristles missing from the height. Past late 2008, the helmet had been dented almost beyond recognition. No symbol for Barack Obama has appeared in the strip; the May 30, 2009, strip had Obama and an aide wondering what the reason for this might be (off console).[20]

Other symbols include a waffle for Pecker Clinton (called by popular vote—the other possibility had been a flipping coin), an unexploded (but sometimes lit) bomb for Newt Gingrich, a feather for Dan Quayle, and a behemothic groping paw for Arnold Schwarzenegger (who is addressed by other characters as "Herr Gröpenfuhrer", a reference to accusations of sexual assail against Schwarzenegger). Many less well-known politicians have as well been represented as icons over the years, like a swastika for David Duke, but but for the purposes of a gag strip or ii. Trudeau has made his use of icons something of an in joke to readers, where the offset appearance of a new i is often a punchline in itself.

The long career of the series and continual utilise of real-life political figures, analysts notation, have led to some uncanny cases of the cartoon foreshadowing a national shift in the politicians' political fortunes. Tina Gianoulis in St. James Encyclopedia of Popular Civilization observes that "In 1971, well before the bourgeois Reagan years, a forward-looking B.D. chosen Ronald Reagan his 'hero'. In 1984, almost ten years before Congressman Newt Gingrich became Speaker of the House, another character worried that he would 'wake up someday in a country run by Newt Gingrich.'"[21] In 1999, Donald Trump was depicted every bit a presidential candidate.[22] In its 2003 series "John Kerry: A Candidate in the Making" on the 2004 presidential race, The Boston Globe reprinted and discussed 1971 Doonesbury cartoons of the young Kerry's Vietnam State of war protest speeches.[23]

Characters [edit]

Doonesbury has a large group of recurring characters, with 24 currently listed at the strip's website.[24] There, information technology notes that "readers new to Doonesbury sometimes feel a temporary bout of grapheme shock", every bit the sheer number of characters (and the historical connections amid them) tin can be overwhelming.

The principal characters are a group who attended the fictional Walden College during the strip'due south commencement 12 years, and moved into a commune together in April 1972. Most of the other characters first appeared as family members, friends, or other acquaintances. The original Walden Commune residents were Mike Doonesbury, Zonker Harris, Mark Slackmeyer, Nicole, Bernie, and DiDi. In September 1972, Joanie Caucus joined the comic, coming together Mike and Mark in Colorado and somewhen moving into the commune. They were later joined by B.D. and his girlfriend (later on wife) Boopsie, upon B.D.'southward return from Vietnam. Nicole, DiDi, and Bernie were mostly phased out in subsequent years, and Zonker'due south Uncle Duke was introduced as the most prominent character exterior the Walden group, and the master link to many secondary characters.

The Walden students graduated in 1983, after which the strip began to progress in something closer to real time. Their spouses and developing families became more important after this: Joanie'south daughter J.J. Caucus married Mike and they had a girl, Alex Doonesbury. They divorced, Mike married Kim Rosenthal, a Vietnamese refugee (who had appeared in the strip as a baby adopted past a Jewish family just after the fall of Saigon; run into Operation Babylift), and J.J. married Zeke Brenner, her former swain and Uncle Knuckles's former groundskeeper. Joanie married Rick Redfern, and they had a son, Jeff. Uncle Duke and Roland Hedley have also appeared ofttimes, oftentimes in more than topical settings unconnected to the main characters. In more recent years the second generation has taken prominence every bit they have grown to college age: Jeff Redfern, Alex Doonesbury, Zonker's nephew Zipper Harris, and Uncle Duke'due south son Earl.

Controversies [edit]

Doonesbury has delved into a number of political and social issues, causing controversies and breaking new ground on the comics pages. Among the controversies:

1970s [edit]

  • A November 1972 Sunday strip depicting Zonker telling a trivial boy in a sandbox a fairy tale ending in the protagonist being awarded "his weight in fine, uncut Turkish hashish" raised an uproar.[25]
  • During the Watergate scandal, a strip showed Marker on the radio with a "Watergate profile" of John Mitchell, declaring him "Guilty! Guilty, guilty, guilty!!" A number of newspapers removed the strip and one, The Washington Post, ran an editorial criticizing the drawing. Post-obit Richard Nixon's death in 1994, the strip was rerun with all the instances of the discussion "guilty" crossed out and replaced with "flawed".[26]
  • In June 1973, the military newspaper Stars and Stripes dropped Doonesbury for being too political.[27] The strip was quickly reinstated later hundreds of protests by military readers.
  • September 1973: The Lincoln Periodical became the offset newspaper to move Doonesbury to its editorial page.[28]

  • In November 1976, when the storyline included the blossoming romance of Rick Redfern and Joanie Caucus, iv days of strips were devoted to a transition from 1 flat to some other, ending with a view of the two together in bed, mark the kickoff time whatsoever nationally run comic strip portrayed premarital sex in this manner.[30] The strip was removed from the comics pages of a number of newspapers, although some newspapers opted to merely repeat the opening frame of that day's strip.
  • In June 1978, a strip included a coupon listing various politicians and dollar amounts allegedly taken from Korean lobbyists, to be clipped and glued to a postcard to be sent to the Speaker of the House Tip O'Neill, resulting in an overflow of mail to the Speaker's office.[31]

1980s [edit]

  • In June 1985, a strip featuring Aniello Dellacroce and Frank Sinatra together, which referred to Dellacroce as an "alleged human" who has been charged with murder led to several papers dropping the strip and a statement from Sinatra.[32]
  • In Dec 1988, the Winston-Salem Journal dropped a Sun strip featuring the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company (in which a prospective executive cannot deny the link between smoking and cancer without bursting out laughing) because "it would be personally offensive to its employees." It was the first fourth dimension the strip had been pulled in deference to a corporation.[33]
  • In June 1989, several days' comics (which had already been drawn and written) had to be replaced with repeats, because the humor of the strips was considered in bad taste in light of the violent crackdown on protesters in Tiananmen Foursquare in Beijing. Trudeau himself asked for the remember,[34] despite an interview published with Universal Press Syndicate Editorial Managing director Lee Salem in the May 28, 1989, San Jose Mercury News, in which Salem stated his hopes the strips could even so exist used.

1990s [edit]

  • In November 1991, a series of strips appeared to give credibility to a existent-life prison house inmate who falsely stated that one-time Vice President Dan Quayle had connections with drug dealers. The strip sequence was dropped by some two dozen newspapers, in office because the allegations had been investigated and dispelled previously.[35] 6 years later, the reporter who broke the Quayle story, some weeks after the Doonesbury cartoons, afterwards published a volume saying he no longer believed the story had been true.[36]
  • In Nov 1993, a storyline dealing with California wildfires was dropped from several California newspapers, including the Los Angeles Times, The Orange County Register, and The San Diego Spousal relationship-Tribune.[37]

  • In March 1995, John McCain denounced Trudeau on the floor of the Senate: "Suffice it to say that I hold Trudeau in utter contempt." This was in response to a strip almost Bob Dole'south strategy of exploiting his war record in his presidential campaign. The quotation was used on the comprehend of Trudeau'south volume Doonesbury Nation. McCain and Trudeau afterwards fabricated peace: McCain wrote the foreword to The Long Road Home, Trudeau's collection of comic strips dealing with B.D.'s leg amputation during the 2nd Iraq war.
  • In February 1998, a strip dealing with Bill Clinton's sex scandal was removed from the comics pages of a number of newspapers because it included the phrases "oral sex" and "semen-streaked wearing apparel".

2000s [edit]

  • In November 2000, a strip was not run in some newspapers when Duke said of presidential candidate George Due west. Bush: "He's got a history of alcohol abuse and cocaine."
  • In September 2001, a strip perpetuated the Internet hoax[38] that claimed George W. Bush had the everyman IQ of any president in the last 50 years, half that of Bill Clinton.[39] When caught repeating the hoax, Trudeau apologized "with a trademark barb – he said he deeply apologized for unsettling anyone who thought the president quite intelligent."[40]
  • In 2003, a drawing that publicized the recent medical research suggesting a connection between masturbation and a reduced gamble of prostate cancer, with one graphic symbol alluding to the practice every bit "self-dating", was not run in many papers; pre-publication sources indicated that as many every bit one-half of the 700 papers to which it was syndicated were planning not to run the strip.[41]
  • February 2004: Trudeau used his strip to make the apparently 18-carat offering of $10,000 (to the USO in the winner'south proper name[42]) for anyone who could personally confirm that George Due west. Bush-league was actually nowadays during whatever function of his service in the National Baby-sit. Reuters and CNN reported by the end of that week that despite 1,300 responses, no credible bear witness had been offered.[43] An FAQ posted on the Doonesbury site in September of that year noted that the submissions, while "surreally entertaining", had failed to provide a single definitive corroborator, adding that Trudeau had donated the $10,000 to the USO anyway.[44]
  • April 2004: On Apr 21, afterward nearly 34 years, readers finally saw B.D.'s caput without some sort of helmet. In the same strip, information technology was revealed that he had lost a leg in the Iraq War. Later that month, the 23rd, after awakening and discovering his situation, B.D. exclaims "SON OF A Bitch!!!" The single strip was removed from many papers—including The Boston World [45]—although in others, such every bit Newsday, the offending word was replaced by a line. The Dallas Morning News ran the cartoon uncensored, with a footnote that the editor believed profanity was advisable, given the subject thing. An image of B.D. with an amputated leg also appeared on the cover of Rolling Rock that summer (issue 954).
  • In June 2005, Trudeau came out with The Long Road Habitation, a book devoted to B.D.'s recovery from his loss of a leg in Republic of iraq. Although Trudeau opposed the Republic of iraq War, the foreword was written by Senator John McCain, a supporter of the state of war. McCain was impressed by Trudeau's desire to highlight the struggle of seriously wounded veterans, and his want to assist them. Proceeds from the book, and its sequel The State of war Within benefited Fisher House.[46]
  • July 2005: Several newspapers declined to run ii strips in which George W. Bush refers to his adviser Karl Rove as "Turd Blossom", a nickname Bush has been reported to employ for Rove.[47]
  • In September 2005 when The Guardian relaunched in a smaller format, Doonesbury was dropped for reasons of space. After a overflowing of protests, the strip was reinstated with an omnibus roofing the bug missed and a total apology.[48]
  • The strips scheduled to run from October 31 to November 5, 2005, and a Lord's day strip scheduled for Nov 13 about the nomination of Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court were withdrawn after her nomination was withdrawn.

  • Trudeau sought input from readers equally to where Alex Doonesbury should nourish college in a May xv, 2006, straw poll at Doonesbury.com. Voters chose among MIT, Rensselaer, and Cornell. Students from Rensselaer and so MIT hacked the system, which was designed to limit each computer to one vote. In the end, voters logged 175,000 votes, with MIT grabbing 48% of the full. The Doonesbury Town Hall FAQ stated that given that the rules of the poll had non ruled out such methods, "the will, chutzpah, and bodacious arts and crafts of the voting public volition exist respected", declaring that Alex will be attending MIT.
  • Before the 2008 presidential election, Trudeau sent out strips to run in the days after the ballot in which Barack Obama was portrayed every bit the winner. Newspapers were besides provided with old strips as an alternative.[l] [51] When asked whether he created the original strip with consummate conviction in an Obama victory, Trudeau replied: "Nope, more like rational risk assessment. Nate Silvery at Fivethirtyeight.com is at present giving McCain a 3.7% chance of winning – pretty comfy odds. Here'southward the mode I wait at information technology: If Obama wins, I'thou in the flow and commenting on a phenomenon. If he loses, it'll be a massive upset, and the goofy misprediction of a comic strip will be pretty much lost in the uproar. I figure I can survive a little egg on my face up."[52] In response, McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds said, "Nosotros hope the strip proves to be as predictive every bit it is consistently lame."[53]

2010s [edit]

  • The sequence for the week of March 12–17, 2012, lampooning the changes in abortion law in several states was pulled or moved to the editorial page by a number of newspapers.[54]

Criticism [edit]

Charles M. Schulz of Peanuts chosen Trudeau "unprofessional" for taking a long sabbatical.[55] (See also, similar comments by Schulz about sabbaticals taken past Pecker Watterson.[56]) Nor was the return of the strip itself greeted with universal acclamation; in 1985, Saturday Review listed Trudeau every bit i of the land'southward "Virtually Overrated People in American Arts and Messages", commenting that the "well-nigh publicized return since MacArthur'due south has produced a strip that is predictable, mean-spirited, and not as funny as before."[57]

Doonesbury has angered, irritated, or been rebuked by many of the political figures that have appeared or been referred to in the strip over the years. A 1984 series of strips showing Vice President George H.W. Bush-league placing his manhood in a bullheaded trust—in parody of Bush's use of that financial instrument to fend off concerns that his governmental decisions would be influenced by his investment holdings—brought the political leader to complain, "Doonesbury 's conveying water for the opposition. Trudeau is coming out of deep left field."[58]

Some conservatives have intensely criticized Doonesbury. Several examples are cited in the Milestones department of the strip'due south website. The strip has also met criticism from its readers almost since it began syndicated publication. For example, when Lacey Davenport'southward husband Dick, in the last moments earlier his death, calls on God, several conservative pundits called the strip blasphemous. The sequence of Dick Davenport's final bird-watching and fatal centre attack was run in November 1986.[59]

Liberal politicians skewered by Trudeau in the strip have also complained, including Democrats such every bit old U.S. House Speaker Tip O'Neill and California Governor Jerry Dark-brown.[sixty]

Strips about The states wars have also generated controversy, including Vietnam, Grenada, Panama and both Gulf Wars.[61]

After many letter-writing campaigns demanding the removal of the strip were unsuccessful, conservatives changed their tactics, and instead of writing to paper editors, they began writing to one of the printers who prints the colour Dominicus comics. In 2005, Continental Features gave in to their demands, and refused to continue press the Dominicus Doonesbury, causing it to disappear from the 38 Sunday papers that Continental Features printed. Of the 38, just i newspaper, The Anniston Star in Anniston, Alabama, connected to carry the Sun Doonesbury, though of necessity in black and white.[62]

Some newspapers have dealt with the criticism by moving the strip from the comics page to the editorial page, considering many people believe that a politically based comic strip like Doonesbury does not belong in a traditionally child-friendly comics section. The Lincoln Journal started the trend in 1973. In some papers (such as the Tulsa World and Orlando Scout) Doonesbury appears on the opinions page alongside Mallard Fillmore, a politically conservative comic strip.[63]

Awards and honors [edit]

  • In 1975, the strip won Trudeau a Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning, the start strip cartoon to exist and so honored.
