Write what you know! I’m sure most cartoonists have had this comment as well. It’s great for somebody to acknowledge that they enjoy most your work but perhaps are stumped on a specific one. Most often, people are looking for a standard gag or joke, when the cartoon may just be an amusing observation, or Slice of Life.

Some comic strip artists buy story ideas. Not always their wit.

It does sometimes feel like there’s a theme amongst the comics on this site, like they were given a prompt such as “golfing” or “outhouses”..!

Comic strips are mostly just a gag-a-day, so not all of them are gonna nail every single punchline.

I really love the ‘online comics’ gag in this strip and wonder who Klondike Ike and his creator are based on.

Would like to see a real-life “Klondike Ike” mug!

That’s what this forum is for. Someone here ALWAYS “gets it” :-)

And if I don’t “get it”, then you never should have created it, because all content should be solely for me.

Klondike Ike was a little known brand of ice cream which tried to capitalize on the popularity of Dwight Eisenhower after WW2.
