The Final Installment of Souvenir of Dallas

It has been a great collaboration. For 75 years, Paul Milligan and David Hopkins made a comic for D Magazine called Souvenir of Dallas. Then some jerkwad editor up here decided to use Paul and David’s page to do something else, and he killed Souvenir. By all rights, Paul and David should have been royally pissed and launched a denial-of-service attack on D’s servers. Instead, they were cool enough to make a final comic, explaining what really happened. Click it to make it bigger.

For 75 years? Really?

What a brilliant sendoff by two classy creators. It’s a real shame that D did away with this feature, it was what got me to start picking up their mag and really serviced a part of the metroplex that wouldn’t normally pick up D Magazine. For now I’m not reading D Magazine since Souvenir is gone, but hopefully the mag brings Paul and David back to do something else so me and my other comic book friends will have a reason to read it again.

Best of luck guys, thanks for all of the laughs!

FrontBurner® launched in March 2003, the first blog in Dallas run by a media organization. This is where the editors of D Magazine come to waste a tremendous amount of time.
