BOB THAVES DIES
Bob Thaves, creator of the innovative comic panel Frank & Ernest, died Tuesday in Torrance, California. He was 81.
For more than three decades, Frank & Ernest has continued its tradition of innovative humor that has delighted millions of readers daily since 1972. Frank & Ernest stars Frank and Ernest, playful punsters with the ability to appear as any person, place or thing in any time period, past, present or future. The constant element is the pair’s “frank and earnest” iconoclastic attitude.
Frank & Ernest is distributed to more than 1,300 newspapers worldwide by Newspaper Enterprise Association, and is read by more than 25 million people every day, making it one of today’s most popular comics.
Frank & Ernest will continue to be produced by Thaves’ son, Tom, who has collaborated with his father on the strip since 1997.
