Plagiarist!

Just posted about Johnny Hart. So sad, so sad.

But after posting about a hero, here comes the zero...

Back in September of 2001, cartoonist Dave Kelley drew a one panel comic strip called Purple Pussy depicting a cute kitten girl praying for the death of everyone. It mostly went unnoticed.

Recently, the Jack Gallery in Los Angeles hosted an exhibition entitled “Golddigger” featuring the works of Todd Goldman. Amidst Goldman’s “originals” was a painting that is an almost exact replica of Dave’s Purple Pussy strip.


In the age of the internets, crime just doesn't pay, it gets downloaded...
