Johnny Hart, the artist behind the long-running cartoon "B.C." passed away today. Ed Morrissey has a warm encomium to Hart, whose cartoon was a favorite of mine, as well as my late father:
It seems especially fitting that Hart went to his Lord on Easter, and passed away at the storyboard. May the Lord accept Hart with open arms. Godspeed, Johnny, and thank you.
Incidentally, as I wrote in 2005, academia is working hard to ensure future generations won't know what the cartoon's
initials stood for.
