Nothing like a visit from a Pope to get me off my butt and cranking out my first cartoon in four months(!) This is a silly one, but also kinda serious: our last three popes have all been rock stars, and we should thank God for being so lucky to live in this awesome period for the papacy. A "bad" pope will eventually come down the pike, and then we'll realize how good we've had it the last 40 years.

As for the gap in new cartoons: I do have an excuse! I've been hard at work on a new portfolio site for my freelance illustration/design work. ShouId be up in the next few weeks. In the meantime, if you have a need, shoot me an e-mail!
