	The Comics Curmudgeon » Blog Archive » This will be nastier than Jay Z versus Nas
		One of the reasons Frank Cho took Liberty Meadows from the comic page to comic book format was that he was fed up with his editors; one of the things they frequently asked him to tone down or take out of his strip altogether was his shots at other comics artists.
		So I have to say that I’m rather pleased to see Pearls Before Swine publicly declare Cathy to be “filled with folks who utter inanity after inanity,” not just because it’s obviously true, but because it may herald the beginning of a bitter and unseemly spat within the supposedly cozy fraternity of comic artists.

	- Test Pattern - MSNBC.com
		When the word leaked that longtime single Cathy of the comic strips was going to be getting a proposal from the hapless Irving, I didn't think they'd end up getting engaged.
		It was my theory that getting engaged would be too much of a shock to a strip that had pretty much rerun the same plotlines over and over for decades, with Cathy's singlehood as one of the strip's core themes.
		That's just the way it is in Comic Strip Land.

		Guisewite identifies these themes as "the four basic guilt groups-food, love, mom and work." Although her own life has changed in many ways since starting the comic strip, she insists that the character Cathy and its artist share much in common.
		In 1976 Cathy Guisewite became the first woman to break the "paper ceiling" of the comic pages with her comic strip Cathy, the first widely syndicated humor strip by a female cartoonist.
		No matter how much of a struggle it may be for Cathy in the comic strip, Guisewite herself seems to be balancing things with great success: she has received the National Cartoonists Society's Ruben Award for Outstanding Cartoonist of the Year and an Emmy for her first animated television special featuring Cathy.

	Article: Yikes!
		Although comic-strip Cathy doesn't have a child, Guisewite still made use of her experience by forcing Cathy to grapple with the presence of a hovering mother in her home.
		As any die-hard Cathy fan will tell you, the strip that's lasted more than two decades chronicles the life and times of the quintessential single career woman (a comic-strip updating of television's Mary Richards, if you will).
		Although she has since opted to produce her comic strip outside her home, Guisewite has plenty of firsthand working-at-home recollections to call upon.

	"A serious Valentine's mystery for 'Cathy' fans"
		Fans of "Cathy," which blazed a trail with its 1976 debut as one of the first comic strips drawn by and centered around a woman, seem to be taking the character's possible knot-tying in stride.
		But in what may be a blow — or a blessing — to single women everywhere, Cathy, the slightly neurotic star of the eponymous comic strip, may be getting hitched.
		With the 10,000th "Cathy" strip looming this spring, some readers felt it was about time for the career-minded protagonist to settle down.

		We are privileged to reprint the following eulogy for Charles Schulz, which was delivered on February 21, 2000 by Cathy Guisewite, creator of the comic strip Cathy.
		Like Charlie Brown before her, Cathy, the heroine of Guisewite's strip, shares more than a few of the quirks and neuroses of her creator.
		And, like million of others, on those days when it all seems so useless and demoralizing, when we’re disgusted and frustrated and out of hope, we'll sit quietly, look at a Peanuts comic strip and receive Sparky's eternal gift to all of us.
