Garry Trudeau was assisted by inker Don Carlton (Alter 1990). Carlton’s association with Trudeau began in the early 1970s, and his responsibilities grew to include lettering of the strip. The association endured for decades (Walker 2010, 30–31).

The six daily strips published here, deemed controversial by Universal Press Syndicate, were initially not distributed to subscribing newspapers following an agreement between the syndicate and Garry Trudeau. The strips were published in the June 10, 1985 issue of The New Republic (Associated Press 1985), an issue reported as having been on newsstands by Thursday, May 23, 1985 (Associated Press and Los Angeles Times). A few weeks later, Universal Press Syndicate distributed the strips to its subscribing newspapers, allowing each newspaper to decide whether or not to publish them (Splaingard 1985). As published in the Oklahoma Gazette, none of the dailies was dated.
