NEW YORK (AP) Cartoonists are pushing back against racist remarks made by Dilbert creator Scott Adams, with one artist even using his own strip this week to lampoon the disgraced cartoon now dropped by newspapers nationwide.
Darrin Bell is transforming his strip Candorville which usually features young Black and Latino characters into a way to address Adams' racism by mimicking the look and style of Dilbert, complete with wayward necktie.
The only reason anyone knows who Scott Adams is because of the comics page. So I thought somebody on the comics page should respond to him on the comics page, Bell, the 2019 winner of the Pulitzer Prize for illustrated reporting and commentary, told The Associated Press.
In the strips running Monday to Saturday, Bell paired Dilbert with one of his own characters, Lemont Brown. In one, Dilbert hopes Lemont will side with him in his quest to get a laundry room installed at work.
