Damn. One of my dad's favorite comic strips--he really got a lot of laughs out of Gordo and his various talking animal friends. Several years before he died, I bought him a collection of Gordo strips I found at the Cartoon Art Museum, and he really loved it. Maybe he'll finally get to meet its creator.

I really loved Gordo too.  The artwork was great, and the characters too.
