Welcome to my new blog. It is called Bokbluster. My previous archive site is still available here. To see the full size version of the Bokbluster cartoon click the thumbnail.
An added menace to the new site is my ability to include written commentary. Even more menacing, you can throw in your 2 cents by clicking the "comments" link below. Cartoons can be searched by category from today's cartoon forward. There are close to 2000 cartoons in the old archive. Until the magic gnomes show up to move them, that's where they will stay.
