Snakes on a Plane
Today's cartoon is brought to you buy Greek Mythological Premises, Inc.
This was neither a Bizarro cartoon, nor one printed in Parade Magazine. I drew this one because I think it's a great joke but never found a place to print it in the U.S. It's been printed in cartoon magazines in Scandinavia, where people do not fear that nudity or sexual humor will lead to the decay of society, but nowhere else that I know of. I show it at comedy shows, as it is one of my favorites from my career and always gets a good laugh.
Taking this premise further, Medusa would also have snakes in her arm pits and on her legs and arms. Gross. And shaving would be even grosser. Let's not talk about it.
That is a great comic!
ReplyDeleteIf you look don't you get turned to stone? Bathroom humor, you get hard.

ReplyDeleteOh my gawd!
ReplyDeleteJust... um... it's...
I'm speechless!
Great one, Dan!
I could swear that I saw a similar premise from Shel Silverstein Many years ago in Playboy. Still it cracked me up to see it today with the Piraro flair! Awesome dude!
ReplyDeletehey dan when you ever get a chance on your blog...can you explain in a little mmore detail...when you first started how you satyed in people shomes and that stranger s house you stayed in who said he was going to kill you..lol
ReplyDeleteThat ass looks really nice!
ReplyDeletei would assume to prevent lots of blood, screaming and hissing, medusa would go au-naturale instead of introducing the art of shaving to her body.
ReplyDeleteI was going with the "turn to stone" conceit at first too, before I looked more closely. I'd wondered why Medusa, and the beach, weren't rendered in color to emphasize the people being gray. But either way this comic works great.
ReplyDeleteWith such a nice ass, I want Dan to draw the rest of here. How nice does Medusa look in Dan's eyes? We all want to know.
ReplyDeleteI mean "her" not "here"
ReplyDeleteI agree, a great comic.
