Dilbert Creator Scott Adams Dies at 68 After Fame, Fall From Grace
TL;DR Summary
Scott Adams, the creator of the Dilbert comic strip, has died at 68 after a battle with prostate cancer that spread to his bones, announced by his ex-wife Shelly Miles. Adams rose to fame in the 1990s with Dilbert’s satire of office life but the franchise collapsed in 2023 after racist remarks led newspapers to drop the strip; he later revived Dilbert Reborn on Rumble and hosted a podcast amid ongoing controversy over misogyny, racism and anti-immigration views. President Trump memorialized him on Truth Social for his influence and longevity in a polarizing career.
