I have done stand-up, sketches, movies, monologues, awards show introductions, sound bites, blurbs, talk show appearances, and tweets, but the idea of a one-panel image with or without a caption mystified me. I felt like, yeah, sometimes I’m funny, but there are these other weird freaks who are \u003ci\u003eactually funny\u003c\/i\u003e. You can understand that I was deeply suspicious of these people who are \u003ci\u003eactually funny.\u003c\/i\u003e”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSo writes the multitalented comedian Steve Martin in his introduction to \u003ci\u003eA Wealth of Pigeons: A Cartoon Collection. \u003c\/i\u003eIn order to venture into this lauded territory of cartooning, he partnered with the heralded \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e cartoonist Harry Bliss. Steve shared caption and cartoon ideas, Harry provided impeccable artwork, and together they created this collection of humorous cartoons and comic strips, with amusing commentary about their collaboration throughout.
