January 2019

Cave Bunz and friendsWell, here we are in the brand new year of 2019 - So how do you like it so far? Seems we still have the same old ongoing wars, the same unpaid government workers, the same schnook in the white house... Sort'a seems a lot like the same old year just past... Bummer!

But moving along to our New Year's Calendar, Let us journey now back to the Jurassic, some 160 million or so years ago, back to when the new year was really new! In fact, It was so new that years hadn't even been invented yet! Yes, the invention of the calendar would have to wait until sometime later in the Paleolithic when a certain cave man named Ogg, who had invented the wheel, found that he needed to invent years and months, so that he could mail out invoices and overdue notices to those who hadn't paid yet for his wheels... Unfortunately, as money hadn't been invented yet either, Ogg never did make much from selling his wheels, So he stacked up his unsold last year's models and invented the pyramid scheme...

But that aside, getting back to our calendar, (inspired by a candid cave painting from the Jurassic) of a rather fetching Cave Chick and her somewhat grumpy Stegosaurus friend... seems there are some Paleontologists an' other know-it-all types who will tell you that Dinosaurs died out long before there were any smexy Cave Chix to ride on them - But we all know, that can't be true! Otherwise how could you account for all those B-Movies?!?

Also, a tip of the pen quill to Frank Frazetta, from whom I seem to have borrowed the inspiration for our top pix of Bunz and Katz and friend... I recall his magnificent painting of a cave chick braced by two sabertooth cats gracing the cover of one of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Pellucidar paperbacks... Don't recall exactly which one though... Fortunately for yours truly, back in the Paleolithic plagiarism hadn't been invented yet either... *Ahem*...

I suppose that the only other thing to mention here, isn't exactly "new", but there are a couple of moderately recent Tumblr and FaceBook pages which feature odds and ends of my other artwork, (mostly the odds) as well as suspect info and notices concerning the Bunz & Katz comix page and so on - just click on a link to take you to a Magical Bunny Wonderland of Mediocrity...
