The Life of a Comic, as told by Herbert Filby

Posted by Mike Sharkey in July 17th 2009  

I started this comic in Feb. 2006, and it was circulated in a local college newspaper for most of its life. The season 2 finale took place in an independent humor magazine published by my friend Jerry Pohl.

It was a good run, but I graduated and no longer had time to work on it, and thus, sadly, the comic ended rather abruptly.

The Pursuit of Time

Posted by Mike Sharkey in July 13th 2009  

On my way to class this afternoon, I realized that I had forgotten something. With only five minutes left to get from the far end of the parking lot into the classroom, I had no time to remember what it was. And at that very moment, in that very thought, I realized what I lacked: Time herself. …Continue Reading

The effects of reading H.P. Lovecraft after having cake and Mountain Dew for breakfast

Posted by Mike Sharkey in July 9th 2009  

I shall never forget the horrors I realized one late November morning when, in my youthful ignorance, I consumed a rich piece of chocolate cake followed by a round of soda, which was meant to keep me awake for my 9:00 A.M. class. Among the known effects of caffeine, one of the more potent is that of acting as a natural laxative …Continue Reading

The Red Badge of Humiliation

Posted by Jaime Hewitt, LA Correspondant in July 1st 2009  

Samuel Clemens wrote, “The clothes make the man.” Well, this applies to women too.

When I was eleven, I went through menarche. So the women in my family threw me a party. It happened in the morning before I went to school. Unbeknownst to me, they called my school while I was on the bus, and arranged to have the party in my classroom. Now, to a fifth grader, the kids in that room are the only people in the world, and I didn’t want anyone to know. …Continue Reading

Stem Cells Raise Demand for Skin

Posted by Jerry Pohl, LA Correspondent in July 1st 2009  

Well anyone who follows genetic research news as closely as I do has heard about the recent stem cell break through. We no longer need abortions to get stem cells, which is a downer for dashing renegade scientists who like the prestige of their research being kept down by “the man.” Analysts speculate that such rebel biologists will have to learn to ride motorcycles to maintain their peer reviewed journal street cred(ibility). …Continue Reading
