Success In Life

Dummy and Dummier

derh!

It's not really true, they're just jivin' you.

Crazy like a bat

Tar baby

Sorry, it seems the Daily Chronicle has turned into the weekly Chronicle. I would change the title header but honestly I'm too tired. I have noticed that a lot of the blogs I follow are also starting to piddle out. Ones that blogged a lot in the past are now down to a monthly post and some have seemingly ceased to post altogether. It was fun at first , much like Facebook or other forums and then have lost their initial appeal. I doubt I have reached many even with Blogapedia's attempt to syndicate the content on cell phones. Still haven't heard anything from that after giving them permission to use my content. I am about to pull that plug if I don't hear something soon. Mainly whether they have any money for me. I am not in the business of supplying free content. I don't know what kind of business that would be anyway. A free business is not a profitable one and hence not really a business; more of a charity. But I like to post recent cartoons because I am at heart a vain cartoonist who craves attention (aren't we all?). So don't give up on me yet. I'll be back. To quote another real life cartoon character.

Wordy card

A new card that may take one a few minutes to read the front.

It's not easy being green.

Happy Birthday to any old farts out there

This was the card nominated for a Reuben award. Sadly it didn't win.

More trees

More dwarves

Aint I a stinker?

Grandma used to call me that and I would take great glee in it. I don't know why, I just enjoyed being cute and bad all at the same time. Phrases like, "Happiness is a warm puppy" would make me squirm and the first thing that would pop into my head was some version that took it to the dark side. Taking something that was pure and sweet and lovable and bringing it back down to earth made it humorous for me. Elevating something and placing it on a pedestal just puts it into perfect aim for my slingshot. Or BB gun.

Welcome... or maybe not.

This is still only a pencil sketch. If it gets picked then I will ink it. I am not submitting finished line art anymore for Hustler toon edits as they have decided to put out three more issues a year meaning the cartoonists have to produce three more batches to cover the edits. No more money just more work. That sound familiar to working people out there? So now it's just pencils for Larry which will save me days of work. If things get picked then it's on to the next step in the process but not before.

There was Buddy Holly's loss..

...and there was Marcel Dadi's.

Muscle beach bimbo boobies

Another unpublished cover idea done as finished art.

Pacfish

Sorry, my posts haven't been daily lately; I've been workin'. I found a bunch of old covers for Hustler Humor which never made it that I will post more regularly in the coming days. This one harkens back to the days of Pac-man. Remember him? Here the piranas are little Pac-aranas. It also harkens to the days of watching old Tarzan films where the first ones to 'get it' were the native bearers. Usually the white guys are rescued by Tarzan right before their turn with cruel fate but after a couple of natives provide gruesome examples of what's in store. This was painted in dyes and tempuras.

The James Gang.

Why in the world you would mess up your marriage to Sandra Bullock is indeed a mystery. You play with bombs, you get blown up.

A shot in the dark

The Crazies

New Schitts

A redesign of my most successful card to date. They want three totally different designs for Target, Recycled Paper Products and American Greetings. There will also be an online version with just empty frames for uploading your own photos of family, etc to make a personalized card. This card is going to be like a bad stink; it will be everywhere. But in a good way. Like a good stink.

Vote early and often

You can never use this cartoon too much. Don't get complacent; the right is foaming at the bit to 'get their country back' (from who and for whom is anyone's guess) so they can screw the nation up even worse. That should be enough motivation for anyone to get out there and mark a ballot to make sure they never again get the chance. Unless you want more of the same from the Boosh years.
