Wednesday Web Comic #2

Since the beginning of the comic strip, Mother Goose and Grimm, Mike Peters has always been consistently clever and funny. If there were a cartoonists walk of fame, he would have a star.  

Ya Gotta Have Hart

Here is a classic B.C. comic than ran on Easter Sunday.

My Ties with the Syndicate

I have attempted to publish a comic strip with the syndicates four times. One strip was named "Writer's Block", one was locally syndicated for a while in the Austin Statesman newpaper entitled, "Silent Partners". That lasted six months. Another comic strip was called, "Epistle and Apostle". The strip above was called, "Sweet Tater McSpoon", and was nearly picked up by King Features. It came down to two they were willing to back and I lost. (I don't know the name of the other strip - they never told me)

Just thought I would throw some of my past junk onto this blog ever once in a while...it helps when you are scraping the barrel for ideas. This was the first one.

Any Artists Out There?

Are you a cartoonist? An illustrator or painter? I want just the artists who draw or paint. (You singers and musicians will get to list yourselves on Thursday, June 24 - I have to draw the line somewhere) Please tell us something about yourself. What medium do you like to work in? Are you a professional? Have you had you work published or displayed? Who are some of the artists who inspire you? We want to see who's out there! 

A Calvinist in Kuwait

Hey everybody!
I have lots to tell you. Just no time right now. My computer isn't here yet so I am presenting another Baklava Koos Koos for your entertainment. It is Ramadan here and it feels like I stepped into a sauna every day when I leave the apartment I am living in. Pray for me to find a job. I plan on checking with the newspapers and television stations who might need an American style cartoonist on board...and I need a monitor before I can "hook up" my 'puter when it arrives. Driving is a scary experience with the roundabouts and the tailgating. Please stay tuned. I will be back in full force, Lord willing, before long. I hope to find another Calvinist brother somewhere. Pray for that also. Thanks amigos! btw, the Hard Rock Cafe seen above is just a few blocks from my home.
