Rob and David met in high school and had similar last names. It’s twenty years later and they’ve amassed a pile of cartoons produced during their creative partnership. If anyone spent twenty years doing something, you know it’d be funny at least SOME of the time. It’s the law of averages.

Don’t turn your back on the well puts this theory to the test. Pick up a copy and verify our hypothesis. If you don’t laugh once, you won’t get your money back but you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing that you spent your last twenty years doing something more worthwhile than we did!

After submitting the giant chicken design to Threadless, I tried sending in our New Year’s cartoon.

People really liked the idea of it in the comments—the problem was with the execution. Rob does all his drawings on paper and I scan those for the site. I’m not an artist though, so I made a bit of a mess with the submission (wrong colors, thick lines…).

I guess we should team up with someone who knows what they’re doing with Illustrator and then resubmit. Feel free to email if you want your name associated with a picture of Santa Claus giving birth to baby new year

I love Threadless and have tried several times to get one of our cartoons printed on one of their shirts. It didn’t end up working out, but there are a couple interesting stories from the attempts.

Our giant chicken monster as pet cartoon seemed to me to be something that would be visually interesting so I tried submitting that. In people’s comments I found out that this was just one of many “boy/girl finds a huge monster and adopts it as a pet” designs they’ve received.

Just more proof that all of these ideas are floating around in the ether and that anything someone comes up with has probably been done before.
