How One Cartoonist's Mind Works
by
T. McCracken
Malpractice Cartoon 7614

Like historic characters, fairy tale characters and grade B movie characters already come with a back story: "And they lived happily ever after." What's funny about that? Not much. Have characters deal with problems just like the rest of us, have them live not so happily ever after and you're more likely to get a laugh.

Humpty Dumpty falls. Who would be called today? The King's men? No. The king's lawyers.

Gay Cartoon 7447
A princess kisses a frog and it turns into a prince. In some states that would probably be illegal . . . unless, of course, they're different sexes. Then who cares? But what if the frog cares? What if he's gay? What if the princess is gay?
Flower Cartoon 7104
Goldilocks? She's not going to find many bear's houses today that don't have high tech security systems. So where might she be seen complaining?
Traffic Cartoon 2997
I'm dyslexic. Thank God. I don't know how many cartoon ideas I've generated due to typos.
