1990 Far Side Cartoon Featuring the Grasshopper and Ant.” Gary Larson. Newspaper clippings. 3 copies, all apparently from the Omaha World-Herald. Universal Press Syndicate. Unknown sources.
The cartoon asks what might have happened after the fable’s usual ending, which has the ant shutting out the freezing, starving grasshopper. Here the grasshopper kills the ant with his violin and marches off with a bag of grain. Is he waving good-bye? An online entry says that the cartoon was originally published in 1988.
1993 Far Side Cartoon “Scenes that make a crow smile.” Gary Larson. FarWorks. Universal Press Syndicate. Unknown source.
The cartoon shows a roadkill. A viewer might need to look more closely to see that it is a fox that has been killed. The crow would be smiling because the fox outsmarted him in the fable and came away with the crow’s piece of cheese. The verso includes an offer with a coupon expiring in late January, 1993.
