The September issue of Oddballs has officially been sent out! Bash and I took it to the Post Office and dropped it off in their outdoor mailbox… which was weird. The Post Office changed their iconic blue drop-off box, at least at the location I go to here in San Antonio. They used to have… — read more

An Oddballs Fake Cover This, of course, was not drawn by hand. That said, I was originally going to draw it. Here is the pencil version: I have been experimenting with Midjourny – for my “Goofy Monsters Coloring Book” and my IG page “CoffeeShop.AI”) – and I thought this would be fantastic as a fake… — read more

With contributing editor Seamus C. Monster – “I answer your questions. I also eat sea horses!” Dear Oddballs, I’m not very manly but I’d like to be more manly but I don’t want to be some jerk. What should I do? Wimpy in Wyoming Dear Wimpy, First, change your name from “Wimpy” to “Manly.” Unless… — read more

This, of course, is a spoof of “The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse.” But it’s nothing like it. As with pretty much every Oddballs comic, I don’t know where I’m going when I start to draw it. The ending of this one took me by surprise. It wasn’t until the fourth panel that I… — read more

I can’t believe I’ll say this, but I’ve been enjoying TikTok immensely, specifically the creation process – I don’t really scroll or watch much. TikTok has amazing creator tools built in. Simply put, TikTok does what I want it to do. That said, it doesn’t do what I want it to do all the time.… — read more

What is Rock and Roll these days? Is there such a thing? Where are the boundaries? Are there any? There are some songs that, when I was a kid, were rock and roll but now are soft rock – mostly rock ballads. And, of course, the term Classic Rock is attributed to different things all… — read more

I’ll be honest, I don’t know much about unicorns. My sister Carrie made a joke about “Eunuch-corns” while we were talking on the phone and I told her I was going to use it for an Oddballs page… which I did, of course. Yet, a commenter noted that this is pretty much every relationship portrayed… — read more

A comic like this shouldn’t make sense. But it does. Humor is odd that way. On the surface, it comes across as a spoof on “Frog and Toad,” but that’s a loose thread, so to speak. After all, two friends can be of any sort when it comes to fiction, especially children’s books: an elephant… — read more

Bash, who is four years old at the moment I’m writing this, LOVES books! he can’t get enough of them. He can’t read yet, at least not that we know of since he still isn’t talking. He can recognize simple words like “BOO!” and “read” them, but he’s not going to crack open “War and… — read more

I bet some of these emojis exist already. But, then again, the nature of Oddballs is I write and draw the gag at the same time so there is very little research, if any. Sometimes I’ll reference a picture if I don’t know how something looks, but usually, I’m just tearing through. Hear it! Watch… — read more
