100 Burfords

Every week since June 2024, cartoonist Gary B. Martin has published a new Burford in the West Side Rag — New York City's beloved neighborhood newspaper covering the Upper West Side. The Burfords are salt-of-the-earth New Yorkers: ordinary people captured with affection, wit, and the kind of gentle humanity that makes you smile on the subway.

This app collects all 100 strips in a single, beautiful gallery — browse the full collection as a grid, or read straight through in landscape book mode, one cartoon at a time.

Each entry includes the original publication date, the reader comments from the West Side Rag website (thousands of neighbors weighing in on their fellow New Yorkers), and a direct link to add your own comment on the live article.

100 Burfords. One neighborhood. One hundred small portraits of who we all are.
