When I returned from vacation, I was pleasantly surprised to find a guest cartoon from the illustrious Noel Curry waiting in my inbox. Noel is the mind behind both DJ Bogtrotter Cartoons and Milton’s Life Cartoon. And if that weren’t enough, he is a prolific twitterer and the mind behind Tuesday Sketch.
Tuesday Sketch is a weekly challenge for anyone who wants to put pencil to paper and draw the weekly challenge. Follow Noel on Twitter and each Tuesday he announces the topic and those willing post their results to the Tuesday Sketch Flickr Group. Yours truly has submitted in the past (see here and here).
Thanks again Noel.

I can imagine Bearman’s face on the Joker Card. Good one Noel.
Really? I was imagining yours.
omg are you two going to have this conversation for EVER guest cartoon?? 😛
Have we had this conversation before? I didn’t have a feeling of deja vu all over again or anything.
Brilliant! So simplistic, yet so original!
Simplistic but unoriginal is how I am sometimes portrayed.
Soon as I saw this the Juice Newton song came to my mind.
“Playing with the Queen of Hearts. You know it ain’t really smart. The Joker ain’t the only fool, who’ll do anything for you….”
Great Job Noel.
You know it ain’t really smart. I always heard that line as “You know you are the village tart”
Like it – good stuff –
I guess he made her show her hand.
I’ve posted about Bent Objects before and maybe you are familiar with Terry Border’s work. This looks lot like some of the card stuff he did recently.
I have seen his stuff before but didn’t remember his name. Anyone interested in Terry’s work can find it here

Guess she’s wild. 🙂
joker, JOKER, JOKER!!! ok I am dating myself.
I hope it turns into a lasting relationship.
good one Noel,
now if the queen knew that the king was messing around with Jack…
Isn’t Jack their son???
hence why it would be more scandalous!
true.
Hmm, is the Joker playing with a fool deck?
Let’s hope it was at least the Jack of diamonds. I would guess that they’re maybe first cousins or something, but c’mon this is royalty, they have more important things to worry about than imbreeding.
I thought that was the problem with Royalty WAS all the inbreeding.
If I had a nickel….
then you would have 5 cents.
or a nickel…
And in Europe that 5 cents would exchange for less than 1 cent Euro 🙁
I’m an American living in Europe so I dislike this one.
Go to Costa Rica and that 5 cents would be 500x more in colones.
Really is Costa Rica’s currency that boogered?
Oh yeah…I’ll have more on Sunday.
That looks like one of Bearman’s shoes sticking out to me. 🙂 Good work, Noel! This is one of my favorite visually-pleasing cartoons of the New Year.
I wear a size 11.
Haha. The Joke’s on him. The King I mean. Not you, Bearman.
Ha Ha Good one Noel, that Joker’s such a card
He should be DEALT with
Nice how he perfectly captured the old arch-rivalry between Bearman and the Joker.
…or some other B–Man who fights Joker. Close enough.
The other bman has cooler gadgets.
This cartoon is obviously about to get violent! What is the king hiding behind his head?
I didn’t notice that. Look how distraught he is.
I thought the ace was in the hole 🙁
So bad. So bad.
Aaaaaahhhhhh, this is just too cute
How come you don’t say that about my cartoons? haha
ah souldose..the nigerian scam is back!
Wait? You are saying I have been had?
Ha,ha,ha!
Gotta love them wild cards 🙂
There’s a bunch of ’em that visit here.
Is the king about to play his death card?
Queen better recognise
Oh she does. She’ll make it his fault somehow.
Thar ya go bearman! A new trend in swag. We cartoonists should put something like this together. A custom deck of cards with our main characters as the faces or even some of the numbers, and ourselvesas the joker. Of course you can be the Joker. I need to find a real artist to work out how to do this.
That is a great idea. I’ll have to think on that.
A grand idea, but everyone would want to be King! I think even my own characters would fight it out amongst themselves for that honor.
I want to be the 2 of clubs. Why? Deuces end up being wild.
What a scandal?
