It’s another Sunday funny this week! I figured I’d revisit the newspaper comics section again with a certain “horrible” fella.

Above is my take on Gill Waterman from one of my favorite cartoons as a kid, Gravedale High. I intended to draw every character this month, but that proved to be a futile endeavor while moving across state lines with a 1-year-old in tow! Anyway, these were the other two I was able to crank out.

Side note on yesterday’s post: if you look to the right of Aaron’s finger there may just be a variant cover I provided for last year’s holiday edition of The Cloakroom. Thanks to @thornycomics.com and @veronicahowell.bsky.social for the opportunity!
