Another exclusive Riddled interview

What's it like, modelling for Far Side cartoons?
Can't complain. Gary Larson is a professional. He has the scene all worked out in his head, and never needs more than two takes. Some cartoonists, you know, they book you for a morning session, but they're not sure what they want and they just say "improvise your part", and then they want another take, and then another, and you're there all day. Not naming names.

Can we expect a reel of out-takes some day?
Oh that would be good. There was the time that Martha got me to die by, wait, I can't tell that story.

Does Larson work with many models?
We all know each other. Like a big happy family.

Does your family know you model for cartoons?
I always wear glasses to the shoot so they won't recognise me.

Nude scenes?
Only if nudity is integral to the joke.

By "no more wormwood beer just before bed" you mean "lots more wormwood beer just before bed", don't you.

At a sufficiently deep level the two are identical. Thesis + antithesis = prosthesis (or something like that).

So after we plug his head in the baby bulb goes in the other end? This does not sound pleasant.

Easy for you to say... the cows tell a different story.

I don't recall an instance of full frontal nudity in "The Far Side", but then again, if you go to Larsen for your porn you've got larger problems than just that $2500.00 Raccoon suit...
