It’s the humour that makes the cartoon funny. I have seen plenty of fantastic artwork webcomics that aren’t that funny or very popular & I’ve seen others that aren’t as good artistically but humour wise they are hilarious & are very popuar. Your humour is really funny Carl.
Thank you. Sometimes the pic sells the gag and sometimes the gag sells the pic. I think my pens work just well enough to unite the two. Most times anyway.
Cornball is hard because it is silly, clean and wholesome (in such a corrupt and contaminated world) and down on the farm like you did not go beyond the 3rd grade. It is hard to capture for a city slicker like me. Glad you like it. Yes I am proud to be cornball. By the way, I don’t know about you but I am voting for Roosevelt for president. Again.
Luke just needs to “man up.” Deal with it himself. Maybe he should just lay on his back on the floor. I’ve seen that work for others. No need to trouble the doc over it.

Luke is the rider. Mathew is the Horse. Mark is on the porch and John is the doctor. Have we heard of these guys before?

Luke is a hard one to learn a lesson. Hard head makes a soft bottom and a pierced back.
