Doug Marlette, creator of the gently wacky Kudzu comic strip, and wickedly pointed editorial cartoonist, would probably appreciate the very black humor of his dying when the pickup truck he was riding in ran off the road on a rainy night in Mississippi. I didn't read Kudzu regularly, but I'm going to miss his editorial cartoons something fierce.

Sad. Thanks for letting us know.
de nada [i guess].
the corporate-owned media are getting rid of their editorial cartoonists right and left [in both the colloquial sense and in viewpoint]. we can't afford to go around actually killing them on top of it all.
It was a pick-up.
Doug Marlette and Lady Bird Johnson - not a good day for the South.
Didn't know about Lady Bird; thanks, Bryan. As you said, not a good day...
