Nicholas Gurewitch Announces Reduced Production of The Perry Bible Fellowship

Following an option made possible in part by the success of a hit book collection and apparently in order to better facilitate the pursuit of multiple options in other entertainment media, the breakout cartoonist Nicholas Gurewitch has announced he'll be slowing production on his Perry Bible Fellowship offering. In this piece, Gurewitch says that many papers are still interested in carrying the feature on a less regular schedule. The article also goes into a recent Gurewitch appearance on Fox News in amusing fashion. Personally, I think this is great news -- a very young cartoonist taking control of his career in a way that facilitates his doing exactly what he wants to do without the drama caused by the back and forth with the implied commitment of newspaper syndication that made a similar and eventually more complete break by Aaron McGruder seem so dramatic and slightly unpleasant.
