''Thatch'' was a comic strip created by Jeff Shesol. The strip began in Brown University's student newspaper The Brown Daily Herald. It was later picked up for syndication by Creators Syndicate in late 1994. The title character was an everyman who struggled through life and politics. He had an alter-ego, Politically Correct Person (P.C. Person), who was a stereotype of sensitive liberals who fear offending people. Other characters were Tripp, Thatch's womanizing, obnoxious roommate; Kate, the editor for the college paper; and Sloane, who, as the cartoonist described in the strip's first and only book collection, a "heartless, shallow rich bitch."〔 〕 In 1998, Shesol was offered a position as speech writer for the President of the United States Bill Clinton.〔("Cartoon News and Views " ), ''Comic Artists Professional Society'', April 1998.〕 Shesol agreed and ended the strip. The final ''Thatch'' appeared on April 11, 1998. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thatch (comic strip)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
