Doonesbury cartoonist and former Saranac Lake resident Garry Trudeau has unveiled his 2024 Winter Carnival button design.
According to the Adirondack Daily Enterprise, the design, inspired by 1940s horror comic books and the Creepy Carnival theme, shows Doonesbury character Michael James “Mike” Doonesbury cowering in fear with skis askew as he’s accosted by a giant green monster in an icy pond. Trudeau has designed every Winter Carnival button since 1981.
