Frank DeRoy, first assistant lighthouse keeper at Heceta Head Lighthouse, knew exactly what to do when a dead whale washed ashore in the early 1900s: have his wife, Jenny, take a photo of him standing on top of it posing muscle-man style.

My blog posts over the last five days have been a rough outline of The Komic’s origin story. The Komic is a graphic novel about a super hero comedian I hope to someday to draw and write.
Where does the story go from here? I have oodles of ideas.
One story line involves a spate of people dying from heart attacks in Odd Port. Or are they heart attacks? No one can prove The Komic is killing people, but many believe she is. Whenever there is a suspicious death someone asks, “Was it natural or was he a victim of The Komic?”
The Komic is a Superhero, killer comedian, and the main character in a series of graphic novels I hope to write and draw someday.
BTW: For the moment I just have a couple of sketches, so I’m interspersing some of my other cartoons through out the posts.
The Komic is the funniest comedian on the planet and is the super hero in a series of graphic novels I hope to write one day. All great superheroes have a great origin story.
All great superheroes need to have an origin story.

A newborn flew out of a hospital window and landed on her head. Bonnie Watson who ran the mortuary next door took the waif home and named her Lily Puddly. When Lily Puddly was 35, Bonnie Watson contracted a terminal brain disease. She and Lily Puddly go to the Odd Port Comedy Club on open-mike night hoping to distract themselves, but none of the comedians are any good. Bonnie Watson says to Lily Puddly that she tells far better jokes than that lot, and she should try her hand at stand up. Continue reading
The Komic is the funniest person in the universe. She is the super hero in a series of graphic novels I hope to write some day. So far all I’ve managed to do is draw one sketch and create a few plot outlines. The following is the Komic’s origin story because every great superhero needs a great origin story. Continue reading
One of my back burner projects is The Komic, a graphic novel about the funniest comedian on the planet. I first thought about the idea while listening to a conversation between Jerry Seinfeld and George Costanza in Seinfeld’s season five’s episode, The Stock Tip.
Jerry: I think Superman probably has a very good sense of humor.
George: I never heard him say anything really funny. Continue reading
I drew the book cover and several cartoons for Disorder in the Court: Legal Laughs, Court Jests, and Just Jokes Culled From the Nation’s Justice System published in 1996 by the National Court Reporters Association.
It’s a series of courtroom bloopers culled by court reporters from transcripts, or as they call them, “Transquips.”
Here are a few of them.
FEDERAL JUDGE: This seems like a fairly simple problem. Let’s not make a federal case out of it. Continue reading
With Print on Demand (POD) you can cheaply put out your own version of the Bible, although I doubt The McCracken Version, even a red-letter edition, would ever replace King James’s.
Thanks to Cafepress and Zazzle any cartoon on this site can be printed on demand on T-shirts and lots of other merchandise. My online stores are a work in progress, but I’ll set up a link for you if you email me which cartoon you want on a shirt, poster, or whatever–they even print things on thongs. I’ve yet to have a request for these yet, but you never know. Continue reading
Heceta House And Hanson Kids
Heceta Head Lighthouse’s Head Light Keeper’s House (try saying that ten times fast) is rumored to have two ghosts. Yesterday I wrote about Rue, its first ghost. Today I’m writing about John, its other ghost. Continue reading
