Jake Tapper, CNN’s news anchor and a graduate of Barack Hebrew Academy in Lower Merion, was guest illustrator for the Dilbert comic strip this week for charity, writes Nick Vadala for The Philadelphia Inquirer.

He and Dilbert creator, Scott Adams, will auction off the original drawings, with the proceeds going to Homes for our Troops, a charity that builds homes for injured veterans.

Tapper, who is remembered by his Merion high school friends as a school prankster who drew a dirty cartoon in the senior yearbook, shared his first take on Dilbert on Monday.

However, the strip immediately received a lot of mixed responses.

One commenter wrote that “Dilbert looks like the result of a transporter accident involving Scott Adams and Bart Simpson.” Some official reviews were not much kinder, with New York Magazine calling it “horrifying.”

Several Tapper followers on Twitter also took issue with the fact he agreed to work with Adams, who has been courting controversy for years. Most recently, he caused online furor by promoting his app, WhenHub, in connection with the Gilroy Garlic Festival mass shooting.

“I like it, but working w/Scott Adams strikes me as questionable,” one follower wrote.
