Pan Pan-Pan Pan

Person 1:  What is that?  Person 2:  It's a pan I invented to cook bread in.  And since the word for bread in some languages is pan, I'm calling it... the Pan Pan!  Person 1:  Uh-huh.  Person 2:  And I want to make all kinds of bread in it, so that makes it a Pan-Pan Pan!  Person 1 makes a disgusted face.  Person 2:  And if I name it after the Greek goat god of the wild, then it's-  Person 1:  Time for you to go to bed.

I don't feel nearly as guilty about this as I really should. 

In fact, I could have gone further and included the Polish card game Pan, camera panning, Mexico's Partido Acción Nacional, the international urgency signal PAN-PAN, and the ancient Hindu kingdom of Panpan. 
Panpan PAN Pan Pan PAN-PAN Pan Pan-Pan Pan.

Stalk Like an Egyptian

A vampire pokes his head in during the Egyptian mummification process.  Vampire:  Need some help?  Embalmer:  Get out!!!

Wherever and whenever vital fluids are being drained, blood-sucking fiends will follow.  As if reaching the Egyptian afterlife wasn't complicated enough already. 

While sketching this out, I seriously considered if there was any tasteful way to depict a severed liver.  I found none.  Lucky you.

High School Lessons on Webtoon (Special Announcement!)


I'm pleased to announce that I just started a new webcomic on Webtoon!  It's called High School Lessons, which naturally is based off the "High School Lessons" cartoons that keep showing up here.  The new webcomic follows Rowan Wolford, a former student at Westpoint High, as she recounts the crazy things that have happened there.  Don't worry - I'll still be posting HSL cartoons here - you just get extra comics every week. 

Read the first episode here. 

Thanks, everyone!

Bison Set

One stupid photographer gets too close to some buffalo, and other people think it's okay and join him.  Person1:  Is it okay to get this close?  Person2:  Looks like they know what they're doing, so it's probably fine.  One of the buffalo notices, of course.  Buffalo 1:  Hey, wanna go bowling?  Buffalo 2:  Yup, seems like a good day for it.  From the buffalo's perspective, the people just happen to be in bowling pin formation.

A brief introduction to sports in Yellowstone Park invented solely to thrust karma upon the heads of obnoxious tourists who yes, were warned.  Many, many many times. 

While drawing this, I discovered that the scientific name for the Plains bison subspecies (a.k.a. the kind that lives in Yellowstone) is Bison bison bison.  I felt that it was important that you know this.
