About Bob Buethe
Expertise
Can answer questions about American (and some European and Asian) comic strips, cartoonists, and comic books (especially from the 1960s and `70s). Also well-versed on topics related to cartooning techniques, composition, and art supplies. I don't consider myself an expert on animated cartoons, or on the collectibles market (i.e., how much old comic books or cartoon artwork are worth). If asked, I'll try to answer questions in these areas, but you can probably get equally good answers from Wikipedia or Google.

Experience
Forty years reading and collecting comic books. Over twenty years as an amateur cartoonist. Extensive library of cartoon- and comic-related reference books.

Amateur and Professional Cartoonists Association

Expert: Bob Buethe - 6/29/2008

Question
I remember an old cartoon of a bare that insists on doing everything himself. whither its plumbing, moving furniture or any other chore around the house. he always tells his wife that he will do it. do you remember him. I can remember that character name. he might of been from the same people that developed woody woodpecker

Answer
Hi, Yaser --

That sounds like "The Beary Family," a cartoon series created by Walter Lantz in 1962. The father was Charlie Beary, his wife was Bessie, and the kids were Junior and Suzy. The cartoons were shown as part of "The Woody Woodpecker Show."
