Superbheroes
Appearing in Oddballs #9 After completing this page, I realized that I forgot the “R” in the title “SUPERBHEROES.” The title, of course, is the joke. Needless to say, my actions were less than superb. I was able to fix it with Affinity Photo. How? Easy! I simply used the “Freehand Selection Tool” and selected…
Weirdo Trading Cards
Appearing in Oddballs #9 Who would you consider a weirdo? I’d love to know. After completing this page, I felt that “Chatty Cathy” may not be a weirdo. She’s just a lady who likes to talk a lot. That’s not weird. But I wanted to include a woman to round things out. I’ve heard that…
Squares
Appearing in Oddballs #9 I admit it. I’m a square. I haven’t always been a square. The strange thing is that I was a square when I was a kid, all the way up until I graduated high school. Then I wasn’t a square. Then I became a square again. I don’t drink, smoke, cuss,…
Precarious Moments
Appearing in Oddballs #9 If you’re not as old as me (I was born in 1974), you may not be familiar with Precious Moments. They’re not dolls nor are they action figures – as a young boy, one finds that out really quick. They are what your mom would call “pretties,” which translates to “Don’t…
Is Keto Neato?
Original post: August 21, 2021 If you’re like me, you’ve probably tried going keto before. And, if you’re like me, it didn’t long. Sure, there are those folks who somehow do keto for life, I’m just not one of them. Maybe I love my carbs too much. Maybe we all do and I’m just not…
Vintage Stuff: Bowl-A-Rama
Back in 2003, I had an idea for a game called “Bowl-A-Rama.” In my mind, this was going to be a “fantasy ” fantasy game – like fantasy football, only there would be no actual human players. The players would be characters and their scores would be generated according to a simulated model. Unfortunately, at…
Are You Toxic?
The comic below is from “Oddballs” Issue 7 and gives you, dear reader, some insight into toxicity in our culture. Other than a few psychopaths, no one wants to believe they are toxic. We all have this feeling that we’re doing the best with what we have; treating people in a just and fair way.…
Portrait of an AI as a Young Technology
Perk@Work | “Robot Cook” | Published January 28, 2009 There’s a lot of chatter these days about AI. How much of that talk is generated by AI itself is unknown. After all, the percentage of internet users that are bots is growing. Soon, there will be more bots than humans online. And you thought the…
A Question About Leg Hair
Perk@Work: “Winter Coat” | Published February 1, 2021 Two questions boggle me: I’m sure you have pondered these questions as well. I will now answer these two insightful questions without any research whatsoever. From what I can see on social media, that seems the best way to put forth ideas. Why do we have leg…
Merry Whatever
(Comic: “Happy Holidays” | December 22, 2008) Is the phrase “Merry Christmas” offensive and, dare I say it, triggering? To some, no. To others, yes. To many, they couldn’t care less. Does it matter? In a way, it might matter more than you could ever imagine. Get ready because I’m about to ring your jingle…

Bark & Grill: Internet Cord
This particular comic is a collaborative effort with the amazingly talented J. Lopez. He’s an illustrator and photographer and one of my best friends. I asked him if he was willing to work on this comic with me. Obviously, he said “yes,” much to my delight. Thank you, J.! I drew the comic and thought…
