Jerry Marcus (June 27, 1924, Brooklyn, New York ā€“ July 22, 2005, Waterbury, Connecticut) was a prolific freelance gag cartoonist who also created the syndicated newspaper comic strip Trudy. A high school drop-out, Marcus was rejected by the Navy during World War II as underweight, so in 1943, he signed on with the Merchant Marine, shipping out on aviation fuel tankers in the North Atlantic. After gaining the required weight, he joined the Navy and was assigned to the Seabees in the Philippines.
