Of his Pun-Abridged Dictionary (1970, Scholastic), cartoonist Bil Keane said that “The pun is the number one form of humor… and nothing is lower than one.” It’s been a while since we’ve seen Lightfoot in his other natural habitat, the public library. I told the artists at Oray Studios that I had no particular idea what the client at the lending desk would look like and suggested that they could use someone in their company as a basis. They didn’t tell me who it was, but you now have a drawing of one of the folks who help make this strip what it is.
