Obviously, neither Samuel Kurtiss nor Joey T. are real. Well, they’re not real in the sense that they’re images created with AI. Yet… could they be real? Therein lies the so-called truth in fiction. Deep stuff, eh? Like getting to the fruit on the bottom of a big vat of flavored yogurt. Profound, I know.… — read more

My wife absolutely hates the gummy cockroaches idea. Yet, she seemed to like the weird coins. Go figure! — read more

Get ready for turkey time! November’s issue of Oddballs has all the turkey we can stuff into it. Get it? Thanksgifing? Turkey? Stuffing? The bad jokes just keep on flowing like gravy. Get it? Gravy? As with Issue #13, this is another color cover with the background created with Midjourney. Of course, I’d love to… — read more

Yet another fake magazine cover. The last one, “Fashionable Mongoose Magazine” was HUGE among the mongoose community! According to my metrics, 17 mongooses… mongoossi… whatever, 17 of them liked my post! Let’s see how many trolls will like this post across all the socials. Or, better yet, how many trolls will troll it. Wouldn’t THAT… — read more

This is a follow-up to “Weirdo Trading Cards” from issue #9. I didn’t do backgrounds in these for the simple reason that I didn’t have time.
