Fred Hembeck
 | This article needs additional citations for verification. (August 2007) |
Fred Hembeck is an American cartoonist. During the late 1970s and early 1980s, Hembeck wrote and drew a comic strip that frequently appeared in the "Daily Planet" page of DC comic books. (The "Daily Planet" featured news on current and upcoming DC comics and answers to reader questions.) He also did the comic strip "Dateline:@#$%" for the Comics Buyers Guide. He was especially visible in the 1980s when his strips would be seen in Marvel Age, a Marvel Comics information magazine. His strips are available through his own website. Hembeck's characters are always drawn with curlicues at the elbows and knees. He and his wife Lynn (married over 25 years) live in Upstate New York with their teenage daughter Julie.
Hembeck's individualistic cartooning style relies on a simple yet sophisticated economy of lines, resulting in an immediately recognizable "signature" to his characters.
