Cops 'n' Robbers

The following image is a must-add element inasmuch as this cartoon frame seems to have attained a degree of popularity [it's the only BOOMER image that I ever came accross purely by accident, while trawling thru' Google Images] and in fact, more than one punter has remarked it is a 'standout' image.

As so much of the cartoon bizness is built upon trial-and-error, [it's no good simply being a cartoonist, you also have to come up with stuff that will also please an Editor, and more importantly, the 'paying public'] and the following BOOMER/'COPS' image started off like any other: just another cartoon drawing, trying out something a wee bit different.

Maybe it's the juxtaposition [that's today's pretentious waffling over and done with!] between the 'innocent'  B.B. as a masked bandit  and the burly, street-sussed NYC cops that attract the interest of some onlookers---who knows?----but for whatever  reason, this approach has proved amongst the most successful, and further material along these lines has been planned, and indeed executed.


It is simply one avenue of many to explore, however..........
