A transcendental entire function with bounded singular set that is hyperbolic and has a unique Fatou component is said to be of disjoint type. The Julia set of any disjoint-type function of finite order is known to be a collection of curves that escape to infinity and form a Cantor bouquet, i.e., a subset of $\mathbb{C}$ ambiently homeomorphic to a straight brush. We show that there exists $f$ of disjoint type whose Julia set $J(f)$ is a collection of escaping curves, but $J(f)$ is not a Cantor bouquet. On the other hand, we prove that if $f$ of disjoint type and $J(f)$ contains an absorbing Cantor bouquet, that is, a Cantor bouquet to which all escaping points are eventually mapped, then $J(f)$ must be a Cantor bouquet. This is joint work with L. Rempe.
