The Misadventures of Stickman

When I was in high school and college, I started drawing really simple comic strips during various classes. I'd draw them in the margins of notebooks, on the backs of notebooks, on spare paper sitting around, anywhere really. In cleaning out boxes in my basement I came across 20-30 of them, torn from notebooks and crumpled up.

Drawing them gave me great joy. And several people who saw them thought they were funny. Maybe not "ha ha" funny, but "good one" funny at least.

I don't want to keep those old notebooks anymore. But I also don't want to lose these silly little things. So I have decided to start transcribing them and putting them on Instagram. Because that's a place where pictures can go.

If you enjoy them, share them. If you do not, I am not surprised.

And who knows, maybe I'll make some new ones in the process. Or at least learn how to use Instagram. 😲

Anyway, here's the first one.
