A while back, my friend Lucas Turnbloom, cartoonist of Imagine This, came up with a really great character: Do’Raath, The Klingon Barista. Do’Raath works at Starbucks and serves up lattes, mochas and cappuccinos…with honor! Do’Raath isn’t a regular character in Imagine This (he only appears from time to time) but he never fails to crack me up. Below is one of my favorite Do’Raath strips. Other Do’Raath appearances are: Here, and here, and here. And if you have never read Imagine This, do yourself a favor and go through the archive. It’s a very funny strip.

 A few friends of mine just launched Geek Papas - "a site and a podcast aimed squarely at proud geek parents who have unbridled passion for their kids and want to share their lifelong love of all things Geeky with them. We are movie buffs, comic collectors, cartoonists, musicians, artists, sports fans, and more."
Justin Thompson (cartoonist of “Mythtickle”), Tom Racine (cartoonist and host of the excellent podcast Tall Tale Radio) and Irma Eriksson (cartoonist of “Imy”) have joined forces to create Geek Papas. Check it out!  A friend of mine, Mike Witmer, is the creator of a hilarious strip called Pinkerton. It features four main characters—Tucker (a rabbit), Buckley (a fox), Steve (a guinea pig) and Martin (a moose)—who live in a national park called Pinkerton Park.
I’ve been following Pinkerton since it first began almost exactly four years ago. Today is strip #600 – quite a milestone. Go read Pinkerton and have a good laugh. Congratulations Mike!  This week Tom Racine of Tall Tale Radio interviews Scott Hilburn of The Argyle Sweater, one of my favorite single panel features. Mike Witmer (cartoonist of the hilarious Pinkerton) and I are also on this show. Scott talks about his journey to syndication and answers all the questions he gets about his comic’s similarity to “The Far Side.”  We all discuss how we work and cartooning in general. Tom, Scott, Mike and I all had comics on Comics Sherpa around the same time, so we talk about our experiences with that as well. Good times. Listen to the show here.
