BILL DAY’S CREATIVE RANGE PART 31 (Plagiarism Edition)

For those of you who don’t know, Bill Day has been the recipient of an IndieGoGo Campaign to keep him drawing for another year.  Daryl Cagle started the campaign to pay Bill Day $35,000 to draw cartoons full time instead of apparently working in a Bike Shop (GASP! NOT A BIKE SHOP!).  Apparently they’re only $2000 away from their goal with 10 days left to go.

That said, this cartoon is not helping his case.  If donations are going to pay for a guy to photoshop someone else’s work with the addition of a few labels and a tiny drawing, why don’t we just stick with Gorrell who apparently doesn’t even need the bailout.
