Tom Toro has sent in the above Bat/pizza-Signal drawing he submitted it to The New Yorker in August of this year. Let me know as well if anyone can locate more from the archives. If any other colleagues worked on Bat-Signal drawings these past few months, let me know - I’d be happy to post them. The caption was something like, “Oops, sorry, wrong signal.” In this case, I missed out on the publishing party but was definitely breathing the same Bat-air as my colleagues, Danny and Ben. I submitted the above Bat-Signal drawing this past September (it was rejected). What’s always interesting to me is when several cartoonists work on similar out-of-the ordinary themes in roughly the same time frame. The two I found on the CB site: a Joe Dator drawing in the issue of July 23, 2012, and one by the magazine’s former Cartoon Editor, the great Lee Lorenz, in the issue of November 15, 2010. A quick glance at the magazine’s Cartoon Bank archive turned up only two previous efforts, but I have a feeling - in fact I’m almost certain - there are more. Sharp-eyed New Yorker cartoon followers will notice that the magazine recently ran two Bat-Signal drawings: one by Danny Shanahan in this most recent issue, and one last week by Ben Schwartz. ![]()
