Webcomic: Health Insurance

Cartoon of boy sick in bed. He says to his mom, “But if we have health insurance, why didn’t it keep me from getting sick?”

Have you ever tried to explain insurance to children? It’s not the easiest thing. One would assume health insurance would keep you from the flu bug. Then again, that same logic would say life insurance would keep you from dying. I suppose it depends on whether you get term or whole life.

I drew this comic in Adobe Illustrator CS2

Webcomic: Skinny Halloween


Spear-Cartoon_3551, originally uploaded by speartoons.

Cartoon of girl and dad. Girl says,”I don’t know. I was hoping for a Halloween costume that makes me look skinny.”

I’ve noticed Halloween costumes have gone from the old, traditional creepy crawlies to the more… oh… bewitching. Come one, people! kids have enough pressure on body image. Give them a break!

I drew this web comic for Illustration Friday. This week’s word is “skinny.”

I also drew this cartoon in Adobe Illustrator CS2

Webcomic: Scapegoat Spooks

Comic of a boy and a ghost. The boy says, “You’re welcomed to stay here. I could always use a scapeghost.”


I’ve been on the Halloween kick. I think I just discovered a very useful occupation for spooks. Everyone could use a scapegoat, why not use a translucent specter for one?

Webcomic: Monster Mashed

Cartoon of a mom and boy. Child reacts to monstrous plate. He says, “Mom! My favorite! You made Monster Mashed Potatoes!”


This is what happens when I have “Monster Mash” by Bobby “Boris” Pickett running through my mind. I better stock up on some more candy.
