Allen comic strip
‘Woody, the pen-and-ink protagonist, was angst-ridden, flawed, fearful, insecure, inadequate, pessimistic, urban, single, lustful, rejected by women’
My first ever exposure to Woody Allen came from a comic strip. One that floated around the daily paper.
The very neurotic Inside Woody Allen was drawn by cartoonist Stuart Hample – and ran in newspapers from 1976-84.
The author explains what it was and how it happened here.
Retrospective book available here.
Hample passed away in 2010. Career overview here.
