Subtitled "Part 18: The Harvest Home!"

Itchy and Knee appear as monks in pseudo renaissance / medieval trompe l'oeil room, with a tayberry hunt and annunciatory cherubs blowing trumpets and flutes. Anachronisms abound. Itchy bears the single tayberry on a golden cushion. Knee awaits, with a carving knife and fork to receive the berry. Is Itchy safe?

Chapter:

I’ve no idea if it’s possible to smoothly plié in third. Maybe if you have fuel injection. I just like saying Royal Ballet School of Motoring.

Historical note: Yes, I realise that motor cars no longer look like this.

Chapter:

Remember, your blood pressure may go up as well as down. Your kidneys may be at risk if you do not keep up the payments.

I suppose this comic is nothing new in places where there’s no free, national health service. But in the UK we used to have one, that all of us were proud of (excepting the present government, of course.)

And I don’t usually do political satire. But I did so much want to use the sentence “your illness is important to us.”

2013-02-23 Rhinoceros & Harp

Feb25
by on 2013-02-25 at 00:00
Chapter:

Here’s a doodle I made to go on a poster for a forthcoming concert. We’ll be raising money for Save the Rhino International (again.) The amount of rhino poaching is still increasing — the rhinos may be doomed simply because of an erroneous belief in the healing properties of their horns.

Chapter:

Here’s my comic from Adam’s exceptionally enjoyable comic drawing workshop at the University Museum of Natural History. We looked at giant models of insects and even cuddled live hissing cockroaches. This comic was drawn and inked at the museum, then scanned coloured at home in gimp.
