SINCE YOU ASKED Since You Asked: Dilbert 'guest artists' on display for six weeks Comment MailTribune.com Writer Posted Mar. 8, 2016 at 12:01 AM Posted Mar. 8, 2016 at 12:01 AM » Social News Hey, I was just wondering what's going on with Dilbert? I can see that there's a different artist, but why was there no announcement? And how long will this last? — Paul S., via FaceBook Well, Paul, we can see the difference as well, but when you sent this note last week, you knew about it before we did. So, either we missed a notice sent to us by the company that handles Dilbert, or the company didn't let us know. We are in the communications business ... but, well, you know how that goes. To your question: Dilbert writer and artist Scott Adams is taking his first vacation in three years and rather than send out old strips during the six weeks of time off, he recruited help from some budding artists. Here's what he had to say about it in his blog: "I haven’t taken a day off from work for about three years, and my drawing hand needed some rest and rehab. So I asked my “co-workers” (at Universal Uclick) to fill in for me while I try to figure out how vacations work. (The alternative was running repeats.) "My instructions to the guest artist were that I would do the writing and they were free to draw Dilbert in their own style, or to copy mine as best they could. You will see six different Dilbert styles in six weeks. This first week is drawn by the President of Universal Uclick, John Glynn. The last week in the series will be drawn by an intern. So … expect every week to be better than the one before :-)." Paul, the guest artists are into their second week, so you'll get a chance to see a variety of styles for the next 4½ weeks. Enjoy!
