Joining us on the podcast this week are three of the top syndicated single panel cartoonists, Mark Parisi (off the mark), Wayno (Bizarro) and Dave Blazek (Loose Parts). We have a great discussion with them about cartooning, the creative process, cartoon themes and what animals are funny.
Mark and Dave each have a new book out.
Mark's book, "The Truth About 5th Grade", was written with Kim Tomsic and is a very funny young readers book. You can order it here:

Dave's book, "amusing thingies", is a compilation of his funniest cartoons from the last two years (in color) and if you order it from his website, he will sign and doodle in it!
