Interesting coincidence: Another Fisher, Bud, created the wildly popular Mutt and Jeff and went from famous millionaire playboy to, from what I've read, an alcoholic recluse.

Find myself reflecting on the idea of cartoonist as celebrity. We've had a few in this age of reduced print influence; was there an era where at least moderate fame attached to artists who weren't at Peanuts or Garfield level?
