"Duke" discovers he's being exploited
AKA Dr. Hunter Thompson, "Duke" has appeared in Gary Trudeau's Pulitzer prize-winning, seven-day-a-week, cartoon Doonesbury since the '60s.
"Duke's" best-remembered comment was: "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."
Before he crashed and burned, Hunter Thompson was considered one of the best U.S. writers ever. He committed suicide in his 60s, and according to his wishes, had his ashes fired from a cannon, an event promoted and paid for by actor Johnny Depp, who portrayed Thompson in the movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
As he just discovers, "Duke" appears many times in Trudeau's "40: A Doonesbury Retrospective."
