Creator of the comic strip 'Arlo & Janis,' Mr. Johnson first encountered an armadillo when he was 7 years old and visiting cousins in Mobile, Alabama. He has never forgotten the experience and considers it a turning point in his life. He is uncommonly well suited to be a professional cartoonist.
I’ve never done much in-law humor, partly because the in-laws are invisible in Arlo and Janis and partly because in-law humor has been done to death. It was not because my own in-laws never fit the stereotype. I’ll leave it at that.
