In the Bleachers is a comic strip that comments on, and lampoons , sports. It was created in 1985 by American cartoonist/filmmaker Steve Moore and is currently syndicated internationally by Andrews McMeel Syndication .[2]
Publication history
[ edit ]
The single-panel cartoon appears in about 200 newspapers worldwide, including the Washington Post .[3] Moore got the idea for In the Bleachers while working as sports editor at The Maui News . The comic was launched in September 1985,[4] shortly after Moore was hired as an editor at the Los Angeles Times .[1]
In a July 2018 interview, Moore said that because of his condition of essential tremor , he could no longer create the comic strip.[5] The current writer is Ben Zaehringer.[6]

[ edit ]
In the Bleachers has been published in six book collections, including The Best of In the Bleachers by Warner Books .

The movie grossed nearly $200 million worldwide. There were also sequels called Open Season 2 , Open Season 3 and Open Season: Scared Silly .
