BURLES Kent
BURLES Kent
Born 18 March 1955 in Saskatoon Saskatchewan.
Steve Milo of Washington “a notorious speculator” in black and white comics, it appears conceived “The Adventurers” a project on which Kent would spend a great deal of time. He selected his high school friend and “Dungeons and Dragons” game mate Scott Behnke to write the story, Peter Hsu to illustrate it, and Aircel to publish it.
Peter did the first issue but after that he reduced his role to illustrating only the covers. With issue 2, Kent took over illustrating the novel and drawing portraits of the various characters associated with it. He also co-illustrated the cover with Peter. In 1986, with issue 3, Steve transferred the series to a company he created Adventure Publishing in Fairfax Virginia. It reprinted the two Aircel issues and continued the serial. It appears that after Adventures, 3, the team decided to introduce an origin story. This issue became Adventurers 0. As described in Adventurers 0, it had initially been decided to jump right into the story and fill in the background as the story progressed, but this had proven unsuccessful and so an origin story was belatedly written and introduced as Adventurers 0. With this issue Ron Kasman relieved Kent of lettering duties. The team settled down for a couple of issues with Scott Behnke still writer, Kent Burles content illustrator, Ron Kasman letterer and Peter Hsu cover illustrator. Then with Adventurers 6, Peter reduced his commitment to cover illustration and he and Kent became co-illustrators. With issue 8, Ron dropped out as letterer and was replaced by Ian Carr. With issue 10, the last episode, Kent reduced his commitment to penciling the interior.
When the “The Grail of Darkness” serial began in Adventurers Book II, Kent continued as penciller of the content. Scott left the project after Adventures Bk. II, no. 1, January 1988 to complete studies at George Mason University also in Fairfax Virginia. Dan Greenburg replaced him as writer. For the last issue of this novel, Book II, 7, March 1989. Kent added writer to his duties.
In the early 1990’s, Kent’s work was seen again in covers for Night Realm Publishing Inc.
Although principally an illustrator, Kent has also cartooned stories like “The Grave Diggers of the World” in Canadian Cavalcade. He has also worked in commercial art, the role playing game industry and is an instructor and coordinator at MaxtheMutt School of Animation Art & Design.

BUI THACH
BUI THACH (TAK)
This Toronto cartoonist is the founder of Artattak Studio. He is a book illustrator and has created cartoon strips for various newspapers Toronto Star, National Post, Financial Post and magazines including Owl.
He was born in a village near Hanoi in Vietnam in 1950, the fourth child in a family of six. His father, a school teacher took his family and fled south to Saigon to escape the advance of Ho Chi Minh and his troops.
“I grew up among the political chaos, guerrilla terrorism, military curfews and countless military coups as the war intensified around me with the massive arrival of American armed forces. Within this surreal environment, I found escape in drawing war planes and collecting comics that came from Japan and France – and spent the rest of my allowance on pens and drawing paper.
In grade 7, I became friends with two other budding cartoonists and spent years drawing secretly at their places because my father forbade any activity that was not directly academic. In high school I began taking English lessons at the American library downtown, located amid barbed wire sandbags and M-16 toting U.S. Marines. At the library I started to read American newspapers and discovered American daily comic strips. I was hooked instantly!”
At age 17 Bui won a contest to attend 12th grade and live with an American family in Amarillo Texas. After high school he visited a family friend in Quebec City and decided to stay in Canada. He entered the Toronto New School of Art where he studied drawing, painting and began a career in cartooning in 1973.
Meanwhile, South Vietnam fell to the communists in 1975 and Thach’s parents became refugees. The boat on which they were escaping, capsized. Thach’s mother broke her hip and leg. She recovered and his penniless parents joined Thach in Toronto.
Somewhere between the Summer and October 1991, Thach along with Harold Eastman replaced Emily Hearn and Mark Thurman on “Mighty Mites“. He did the first “Mighty Mites” story in colour in the Summer 1993 issue. His stay however was short. Thach left the feature somewhere between the Summer of 1993 and January 1994.
About 1996, he created the cartoon strip “PC and Pixel” syndicated by the Washington Writers Group. It appeared in the Toronto Star from 3 August 1996 to 3 July 1999, and then in the National Post from 10 April. 2000 to 26 August 2000.
Thach lives in Toronto (2012) with his wife Cathy McNeil and their two sons.

BROWNIES
THE BROWNIES
These mischievous little men of the fairy world were created by Palmer Cox based of stories told to him by his Scottish grandmother.
They first appeared in 1879, but achieved their final form in the February 1881 edition of the Wide Awake periodical. The first story “Brownies’ Ride” appeared in the children’s periodical St. Nicholas Magazine February 1883. It was followed by numerous stories (1883-1914) and appeared in the Ladies’ Home Journal (1891-1910). The first book Brownies Their Book was published in 1887 and was followed by 16 books over a period into 1924. In 1903, Palmer entered the Sunday cartoon section with a text strip called “Brownies Abroad.” In 1908, in “The Brownie Clown of Brownie Town” he added word balloons.
The Brownies appeared in their own theatre company in at least two plays. Their images appeared on toys, games, porcelain, cutlery and numerous advertisements. The most notable product was the camera launched by Eastman Kodak in 1900, which was promoted as “Brownie” a promotion for which Palmer received nothing.

BROWN Huntley
BROWN Huntley
From www.lowandlow.ca/obituary/Huntley-Brown
Born 12 May 1932 in Lethbridge Alberta where he grew up.
He knew he wanted to be an artist from the age of eight years when he and two friends were creating comic books. In this ambition he was supported by his father who was an amateur painter. He attended the Ontario College of Art and graduated in 1955 with a Governor General’s Award.
He began as a commercial artist drawing appliances for Simpson Sears, then joined Templeton’s Studio and finally became a freelancer in the mid 1960’s illustrating book covers and articles in magazines including Maclean’s and newspapers including the Toronto Star. In Starweek Magazine, he illustrated a series called “The Pleasures of …” covering a wide variety of subjects. He drew posters including one for the 1974 Canada Russia Hockey Summit featuring portraits of each of the players. He designed stamps for Canada Post and the Regina Centennial coin.
Alongside his freelancing he did watercolours and in 1983 he opened his own gallery as an outlet for them. The subject matter for these was scenes he saw while tripping through mid-Ontario. He also returned to the now named Ontario College of Art and Design where he taught Life Drawing and illustration for several decades.
In 1978, he was elected to the Royal Canadian Academy of Artists and in 1997 he was given a Lifetime Achievement award by the Canadian Association of Photographers & Illustrators in Communication.

BROWN Chester
BROWN Chester
Ed The Happy Clown, 1992: Back cover.
Born 16 May 1960, in Châteauguay a suburb of Montréal.
When growing up he was a fan of the television series Batman, Superman and Tarzan. The film Dr. Dolittle impressed him and he read several of the books. Among the periodicals, during his preteen years he favoured DC publications but shifted to Marvel when he was in his teens. He was impressed by Carl Barks’ duck stories. The influences for his own material came from the television series and films of “Monty Python” a British surreal comedy group while Wallace Fowlie’s Age of Surrealism, introduced him to surrealist theory.
Over 1977 to 1978, he studied art at Dawson College Montréal, but left because the program didn’t suit his goals.
He moved to Toronto in 1979. After his work was rejected by several publishers, Kris, his girlfriend suggested he use the mini comic format. She obtained printing samples and price quotes. In 1983 Chester debuted Yummy Fur. He self distributed, the approximately 300 copies he printed, for the first three years after which it was published by Vortex Comics. It was a work that ranged from the surreal, scatological series “Ed the Happy Clown” – the title character had Ronald Regan’s head attached to his penis – to cartoon adaptions of New Testament passages. It won a number of industry awards as well as accolades from Rolling Stone and The Village Voice.
His involvement with Bill Marks and Vortex Comics Inc. was a long delayed process. Bill first asked him to do a story for his anthology Vortex, but Chester didn’t follow through. At the same time Gregory Gallant (Seth) (Gregory and Chester were not yet acquainted) was urging Bill to publish “Yummy Fur”. Still nothing happened. Then Comics Journal in its 1996 issue published a glowing review of Yummy Fur, no. 7. Gregory again urged Bill to publish “Yummy Fur”. On May 16th, Chester’s birthday, Bill telephoned him and offered to publish “Yummy Fur. The first issue appeared December 1986.
The switch to Drawn & Quarterly, began when Chris Oliveros said he’d like to take over publishing Yummy Fur, and offered Chester a higher royalty rate, but Chester was still under contract to Bill Marks.
Some time later as the contract approached its end, Gregory (he and Chester were now close friends) became aware of this and unknown to Chester, told Chris of this development. Chris telephoned Chester again and a deal was made. The Vortex involvement ended with Yummy Fur 24, April 1991, and the Drawn & Quarterly involvement began with Yummy Fur 25, July 1991.
Chester began moving into autobiography. He had joined in this movement with his two friends and associates Gregory Gallant (Seth) and Joe Matt. The Playboy recorded the cartoonist’s adolescent reactions to Playboy magazine. My Mom Was a Schizophrenic dealt with his mother’s mental illness. Although the comic books of these three sold in small quantities per issue (3000 – 7000) They attracted mail from across North America, Europe and Asia.
The next step took him away from the autobiographic confessional so common in the early 1990’s to Louis Riel a history aimed at a serious adult audience. He began the series in 1869 with the sale of Rupert’s Land by the Hudson’s Bay Co. to Canada.
