Punchline #1

Feb 1997 · Nelson Communications Co. · 0.00 FREE
“Bad Advice”

"Bad Advice" kicks off Punchline #1 with a sharp, satirical single-panel cartoon reimagining Pat Boone’s comeback via his metal album *In a Metal Mood: No More Mr. Nice Guy*, setting a playful yet pointed tone. The story unfolds as a comic strip that skewers political stances on marijuana through caricatures of pop icons, all drawn with the bold, self-contained style of Mike Thompson, who handles writing, art, and inking. The cover by Buddy Hickerson captures the irreverent spirit with his distinctive pencils and inks.
