Jeff Has Cool Friends 72: Bob Fingerman
My latest Cool Friend is one of those friends that, when I met him for the first time, I kinda quietly geeked out. I grew up marveling at his images in secondhand Cracked magazines I got from my mom’s friend Cathy, and admiring his work from there on out at various points in my life. Bob is a master cartoonist, having credits all over the pop culture universe. From Cracked and MAD, to Marvel and DC, to TMNT and Heavy Metal, to his cult comic series Minimum Wage, I can’t imagine you HAVEN’T seen Bob’s work.
And now he’s got “That’s Some Business You’re In,” an over-40-year retrospective of his art career (forwarded by the amazing Bill Sinkiewicz) that will have a compilation and notes on work spanning all the way back to his childhood, and which is currently being crowd-sourced at https://zoop.gg/c/bobfingermanWhen I noticed he had just started that campaign, I was about to beg to have him on the show to promote it. Turns out I just had to ask nicely. So here it is! Please enjoy my conversation with Bob, follow him on the socials @BobFingerman, and please, if you can, check out the landing page for That’s Some Business You’re In’s crowdfunding campaign, because I think a whole bunch of you are REALLY gonna want to see this. And while you’re at it, head on over to Patreon.com/jeffmay and enjoy some Patreon-exclusive content we recorded JUST FOR YOU!
