Bearman Cartoon: Bar-Be-Q the Organist

Its seems in the small Town of Reading, Ohio (near Cincinnati), Kenny Tessel was having trouble drawing in patrons to his barbecue restaurant (KT’s Barbecue). So he bought a busty mannequin online, named her Bar-Be (Q being her last name), put her in a baseball hat and bikini top and stuck her on the sidewalk in front of his place with a sign.

All of the sudden people were coming in for tasty ribs that hadn’t stopped before. In fact according to Kenny business was up 30%. More on the story here and here. Of course his business went up even more once a couple residents complained and the story has taken on national attention.

So I thought maybe there are other businesses that could use a jolt of new customers using this tactic and came up with my latest editorial cartoon.

New Cartoon Wednesday

Don’t have a new one myself but some of my favorite “undiscovered” cartoonists have new toons up that you should check out.

Addanac City - A comic strip about Hank Addanac (part Dennis the Menace, part Bart Simpson, part Michael Meyers).

Calamities of Nature – when animals talk, people listen. (even though he was on the front page of Digg yesterday, I’ll still put him in here)

Life with Kreg – if Jeff Spicoli were a teenager today.

Spud Comics – The Far Side without the Cows

The Frustrated Cartoonist – Mad Magazine contibutor.  Part webcomic, part diary.

And while not a cartoonist herself, The Daily Uplift, has an hilarious animated commercial for Bontrust Bank.  You have to wait for it though.

Anyone else a cartoonist that people should check out. Put it in the comments section.

Bearman Editorial Cartoon: Manny Ramirez

It seems like Wrestling and Baseball have the biggest issues with performance enhancing drugs. Does it go on as much in other sports and if so, why is it downplayed in the press?

Bearman Cartoons: Happy Belated Mothers Day Cards

As Mothers Day approaches (or any significant event in our lives) we are forced to remember to go out and get mom a card. There are tons of Belated Birthday cards but it got me wondering what a Belated Mothers Day card would look like. I am thinking about doing a whole line of these.

Happy Belated Anniversary – Honestly we thought you wouldn’t make it to your next one.
