Yeah, Lew Little. He was basically a comic strip agent who selected comics for syndication. In most cases, however, Little outsourced the actual syndication to a bigger company. That was the case with FUSCO BROTHERS, which was picked up by Lew Little, but the actual syndication was through Universal.
Excellent display of obscure comic-strip knowledge, Charles. And I'm assuming you did it without Google.
Lew was also instrumental in getting GARFIELD off the ground, as well as a several other strips.
Like most cartoonists, I submitted stuff to Lew right along with the other syndicates. He was always complimentary of my work, but nothing ever came of the submissions.
I'm an award-winning Writer/Editor and Cartoonist. In addition to working at Paws, Inc., Jim Davis' creative studio in Indiana, I write and draw the comic strip EEK! (syndicated online by Uclick). I have also created hundreds of humorous greeting cards, written comic books, children's books, marketing blogs, and a ton of tricky tongue twisters.
Clients include:
