Today’s comic is a bit extra: it’s larger than the usual comic, it’s a cliffhanger and it features Bud getting felt up by a frog. This is part 1 of 2 of Bud’s attempt to transform back into a guy.
I’m taking a week off from the comic for “Spring Break” which is nothing more than [...]

Bud’s trying to transform back into a guy and today’s comic starts that story arc off.
The tucking the frog into Bud’s boobs is a big nod of the hat to Nate Piekos and his comic “Atland.” One of the lead characters, Lily, carried a frog around in her “ample” cleavage (go read the comic to [...]
Hectic schedule of late so no stories today except that the comic’s title is pulled from a 1971 Steppenwolf album of the same name. The only good thing about the album was the gatefold image of a car built to look like a penis. Explain that to your parents at age 14. Made my Fanny [...]
Bud’s transformation into a girl lands him over at Lorraine and Robyn’s place.
In light of today’s comic, here’s a story for you. :
Ever watch a woman golf? Where do those arms go? Over? Under? True golfing story from 1977: I played golf in the summers as I usually worked factory jobs and got off at [...]
Taking the comic even deeper into “cartoonland” today’s entry reveals what started on Wednesday. I’m enjoying this story arc a lot as I think it shows 1977 is just more then stoner/pot/music jokes and can have some real fun. At least, I think so and I’m my best audience after all.
Let me know what you [...]
I told you about how squirrels were in vogue lately, well, here’s to our fat, friendly friends the frogs. Today’s comic starts off a 3 part story arc that I can expand if I think it’s going well. Also, today’s comic is a “cliff-hanger” of sorts and it’s something I rarely do.
I personally hate cliff-hangers. [...]
I’ve always enjoyed St. Patrick’s Day. That one day a year where green is really in style. Chicago has a HUGE parade and having lived near Chicago most of my life, that’s rubbed off on me. So, I wanted to do a comic for the day, especially since Robyn is an Irish-Catholic girl, but my [...]
There’s been a trend lately in TV commercials here in the USA to feature squirrels as the comedic element. The screaming squirrel in the Super Bowl spot is a perfect example. A lot of comics have featured angry squirrels and the like. Well, no more, I say!
Welcome back our friends the pond frogs. Many of [...]
Today’s entry has been inspired by the ENORMOUS potholes in the roads of northern Illinois this winter. We’ve had a lot of snow, thus a lot of plowing and salt being put down, but these things are ridiculous!!
It is often joked that Illinois has the worst roads in the lower 48, but WOW this is [...]
I love Quick Draw McGraw as it is the first cartoon I can actually remember watching back in like 1960/61 on a B&W TV and I thought having him make fun of the “Smokey and the Bandit” soundtrack was funny to me, but then I have redneck roots and Bandit made me laugh a lot [...]
A couple random comics (maybe a few) and I’ll start up a new story arc.
It’s Friday and been an interesting week. My 21 year old lives in a really nice, quiet apartment complex that is well run, clean, nicely maintained and in a safe neighborhood. Contrary to that, my 18 year old is moving into [...]
Today’s comic gave me hell. As a practice, I script ahead as many comics as is feasible. Sometimes as many as 15 ro 20 strips are scripted waiting to be drawn in sequence. Today’s comic came to life and I hated it.
I had it completely drawn, inked and was ready to colorize it (a bit [...]
Today here in northern Illinois it is a cold, rainy day. We had a slight break yesterday with temps in the low 50s (at like 8:00pm too, a tad weird) but for the most part it’s been very gray and wet or snowy. 50 inches thus far of snow and we normally get around 27 [...]
