David Lynch has died, aged 78. Speaking personally as a fan of many years, it's hard to know what to say about that less than a day after the news broke. The Twin Peaks co-creator, filmmaker, Quinoa cook, and cultural icon was my favorite creator in any medium, and the world immediately feels a lot grayer without him.
Lynch was the consummate multi-hyphenate. Aside from his films and television, he was also a visual artist, a musician, an advocate for Transcendental Meditation, and a designer of some very odd furniture. He was also, for longer than you probably realize, a cartoonist. His comic strip, The Angriest Dog in the World was published weekly in the now defunct Los Angeles newspaper, the LA Reader, between 1983 and 1992. Despite that impressive nine-year run, precious little of the material is publicly available today.
