Sherman the dim-witted shark and his cast of characters in
Sherman's Lagoon provide enough laughs for a barrel of monkeys, not
that they've ever seen any. The Lagoonies, as they're known to
regular comic strip readers, are a motley crew-mostly of sea
life-known for their acerbic humor. There's Megan, Sherman's wife
(a soft-touch despite the tough exterior). Fillmore the sea turtle
makes up for Sherman's lack of intellect. Hawthorne the hermit crab
resides in a beer can and is always in a "crabby" mood. Ernest the
fish is a computer whiz, and Thornton the polar bear stumbled upon
the island while floating by on an iceberg. Captain Quigley is the
only human (or "beach ape") who resides in Sherman's Lagoon. He
lost his leg to Sherman and is now out for revenge, but never quite
gets close enough. To round out the cast there's Bob the bottom
dweller. Enough said.
Readers love Sherman and his friends for their hilarious
reflections of human behavior as seen through a seawater lens. Jim
balances the lighthearted antics of this quirky group by promoting
the importance of marine conservation. Sherman's Lagoon is quite a
catch!
Sherman's Lagoon has been in syndication since 1991, currently
by King Features, and boasts a circulation of more than 200 daily
newspapers on five continents.
