Eric W. Schwartz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eric W. Schwartz is an American cartoonist who is the creator of Sabrina Online, a furry webcomic, and Amy the Squirrel, an unofficial mascot for the famous Amiga computers.
He is a noted fan of the Amiga operating system, having made several well-known animations with it, and today enthusiastically supports efforts to clone it for modern computer platforms.
Eric works close with Malcolm Earle aka Max Black Rabbit, creator of Zig Zag. He has created a number of mascot characters with Bill Panagouleas under contract for DiscreetFX. [1]
[edit] Sabrina Online
Sabrina Online is a monthly webcomic starring Sabrina Skunk. Sabrina the character began as an effort to create a persona very distinct from Schwartz’s previous creations, many of whom bore close resemblance to Amy the Squirrel.[2] In 1996 Schwartz gave Sabrina her own comic strip, Sabrina Online. The comic gained a wider audience when the publication Amiga Format started to serialize it in their readers’ letters section Mailbag. When Amiga Format stopped publishing in 2000, its final issue contained a special interview conducted with Sabrina via her creator, Schwartz.[3] Sabrina Online continued, though, and in 2001 the comic won the Web Cartoonists' Choice Award for Best Romantic Comic.[4]
