Fake Rockstar Reported dead at local bar
In the Sunday 4/20 edition of Wiley Miller's Non Sequitur, the main character Joe is seen reading a paper called the "Sunday Telegram", with a headline that reads "Corey Pandolph Found Dead at Gritty's".
Needless to say it was a groggy Sunday morning surprise to find that I was dead... At least in comic form. Rest assured, I'm fine and you shouldn't believe everything you read... Especially in the comics.
FYI, my friend and Maine journalist, Al Diamon, does a nice job of reporting the incident here: Media Mutt
Cheers!

I can't remember what famous or nefarious character it was - probably some Mafia guy - who didn't mind his name being in the papers but couldn't abide having it spelled wrong.
For Wiley to spell the name "Cory" in most Sunday newspapers in America was perhaps trivial, perhaps maddening, and perhaps hilarious ... but the part I know for sure is that he's one of the few who cartoonists anywhere who are wide open to retaliation.
Aren't you, Wily?
