Noah’s Canoe

Bizarro is brought to you today by The Passing of the Pickle.

My favorite part of this cartoon and the title panel are the drawings. The title panel art is a character I drew in one of my sketchbooks, which are full of strange things that I have no real use for in Bizarro, but I occasionally will use one for a title panel.

Regarding the cartoon, though buildings are among the most tedious things to draw, the fun of drawing a futuristic skyline like this one makes it worth it. I’m also very fond of drawing flying cars, something I used to imagine as a child back in the 60s when we were regularly promised a future like the Jetsons were living on TV. Smart phones and iPads are cool, of course, but they’re not flying cars.

REGURGITATED PICKLE: This cartoon from ’02 has nothing to do with anything above, but I came across it in my archive dungeon and still really like it so I thought I’d share.
