Who's the worst cartoon character?

I vote Henry, the dad from Dennis the Menace. He's a mask deliberately invented to whitewash the identity of his creator, Hank Ketcham, one of the worst men to ever make comics.

It's gonna take a thread.

Ozzy Osbourne visited my magic shop. He said he'd like to buy some stink bombs. How many? All of them. I had to go through drawers finding every last one. He bought 900 of them. To sign the credit card slip I handed him a shock pen, which he thought was hilarious and bought that too. RIP

As a Year 2 - teacher, hand made card with honest message and if you are going to give anything else a shared voucher that works in a few places is the way to go.

A smaller key on the right side of the map is labeled: "Limited Service Lines" and has color keys matched to the following names lines:

The other day I drew a subway-style map for The Hobbit, and it was very well received. Some of you asked if I could do one for LoTR, so I have!

Forgive the eel watermark; I'm working on making these something you can buy, if you like.

Are you a parent with a baby that needs a little polish? I do gentle, natural replacementโ€”in accordance with a long tradition of fรฆrie child-snatching. I will take your human child and leave behind a waxy-skinned changeling that seems to fade from existence when viewed in your peripheral vision.

If I find myself with a shy bladder in a public loo, I silently recite the poem "Zen & the Art of Going to the Lavatory" seen in the graphics of the TV series "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". Never fails to unblock me. Thanks Douglas.

The new Gundam is good (got a bit of Godzilla Minus One vibe), but if you haven't seen it, as recommended elsewhere, Pluto is excellent.

Painting of a little dog coming out of a hard-boiled egg in an egg cup on a saucer.

In a bid to attract more followers online, I looked at which post images do well. People seem to like a) pets b) food, so I strategically painted this image of a weird little guy coming out of a hard-boiled egg. Am I social-media-ing correctly?

Tell your mates about #BrokenVeil.

My instagram ads manager thingy has decided to block my account... Fun. So I'm having a bit of trouble getting the promo videos out past Meta's relentless content clamps.

We're down to word-of-mouth for a bit while we get the last two eps out... SPREAD THE WORD.
