So I did some surfing and found that maybe
"Little Dog Lost" by Steve Boreman is being launched through
the Washington Post Writers Group in January 2007.
Maybe.
Craig, when can we expect to see the full details on the GLyph site?
Here's Boreman's NCS bio blurb:
http://www.reuben.org/ncs/members/biogs/boreman.asp
Mre Boreman information was obtained through a site
devoted to a mock infomercial called Stalk 4 U (2004).
"Steve Boreman is a freelance cartoonist and illustrator whose work has
been seen in magazines and newspapers, retail stores, restaurants and
interactive CD-ROMs. Steve also works on the graphics team at the
award-winning design firm Chute Gerdeman, teaches digital illustration
and cartooning at the Columbus College of Art and Design and is
currently the chairman of the National Cartoonists Society's Great
Lakes Chapter. His work has been used by American Electric Power,
Diamar Interactive, Gannett Newspapers, LensCrafters, Red Lobster,
Schlotzsky's and can be seen locally in Business First, and at Easton
Town Center. He lives in a 100-year-old money pit with his gorgeous
wife, Julie, and their perfect dog, Atlas."

Thanks for the reply Craig, I'll be waiting impatiently.
Speaking of Craig and Glyph, today's dailycartoonist.com
reminded me of this Glyph post about Craig's new comic strip:
http://www.ncs-glc.com/GLC/newsblurts/news102.html#anchor3455849
Has anyone kept track of Weekly World News comic strips?
Craig adds the above strip to his Archie comic strip and
his webcomic http://www.craigboldman.com/Tailipoe/index.html
And speaking of the Archie comic strip here's the big Archie
kahuna Michael Silberkleit has to say about the Archie comic
strip in a recent interview (Archie in the interview being
Silberkleit):
CBB: Archie's house style has always been more comic strip-like than
standard comic book fare. The characters' design is standardized, the
lines are thicker. There are few background details.
Do you think that Archie is better suited for the comic strip rather
than the comic book?
Archie: There is a daily Archie comic strip in most of the major
markets in North America. On our website we offer the strip in Spanish
as well. We also offer ESL lessons which can help teach both English
and Spanish on a daily basis. However, they are different types of
humour. A joke told in 4 page is different then a joke told in 4
panels. Archie works well in both environments.
CBB: The comic strip offers short gags which is one of Archie's
strength. How many original strips are still created by Archie staff
for newspapers?
Archie: One each day.
CBB: Are they distributed through many papers?
Archie: The Daily Archie strip is distributed by Creators Syndicate,
and available in both English and Spanish, if your local paper
doesn't carry the Daily Archie strip write a letter to the cartoon
editor.
CBB: Do you use another syndicate to publish those comics or do you
work directly with newspapers and the large media groups who own them?
Archie: Creators Syndicate does all the syndication of our comic strip.
Craig Boldman, who also writes Jughead, writes the Daily strip and
Henry Scarpelli provides the art.
CBB: Are the strips in colour or black and white?
Archie: Black and White 6 days and color on Sunday.
