Winthrop (comic strip)
''Winthrop'' is an American syndicated newspaper comic strip published from 1966 to 1994, created and produced by cartoonist Dick Cavalli. The series, which derived its comedy from a group of children's nonchalantly world-wise observations, evolved from Cavalli's earlier strip, ''Morty Meekle'', which featured adult characters.
==Publication history==
Gag cartoonist Dick Cavalli, whose work appeared in magazines including ''The Saturday Evening Post'' and ''Collier's'', had achieved such popularity by 1956 that ''Writer's Digest'' observed he had "risen to the top faster than any other cartoonist in the business."〔Wepman, Dennis, in 〕 On January 9 of that year, Cavalli launched Newspaper Enterprise Association's syndicated comic strip '' Morty Meekle'', featuring the courtship of the title character and his girlfriend, Jill Wortle, as well as Morty's travails at his low-level office job under boss E.G. Boomer.〔(''Morty Meekle'' (''Winthrop'') ) at Don Markstein's Toonopedia. (Archived ) from the original on March 10, 2015.〕 The strip gradually deemphasized the romance and work aspects in favor of what comics historian Maurice Horn called its "background chorus of snide youngsters with a perceptive take on the human condition."〔 On February 27, 1966, Cavalli removed the adult characters and renamed the strip ''Winthrop'', after Jill's kid brother, the most prominent of the young social critics.〔〔
Cavalli's art assistants on the strip included Bob Weber Sr. and Ray Osrin.〔(Dick Cavalli ) at the Lambiek Comiclopedia. (Archived ) from the original on October 13, 2015.〕 After Cavalli had his second heart attack, ''Sam and Silo'' cartoonist Jerry Dumas substituted on ''Winthrop'' for three months, taking old syndicate-provided strips and writing new dialog and re-lettering them in Cavalli's style.〔 Additional (WebCitation.org archive link ).〕 The strip ended on May 14, 1994.〔
