  • Wombat Facts

    Wombat FactsToday’s cartoon lesson on Australia, takes us to discuss the lesser popular marsupial, the wombat.

    Interesting that indeed wombats poop square shaped pellets.  They are practically blind and use their scent to find each other (no wonder Binky doesn’t bathe) so their square poop won’t fall off the log or other areas they drop it.  And because they don’t process the vegetation they eat very well, someone decided they would make a good source of paper fiber.

    For those who don’t recognize the glass wearing animal in the lower right, that is Binky a Wombie from Peter Marinacci’s webcomic Wombania.  He says that wombies are genetically altered more intelligent wombats.  Whenever Peter posts a cartoon with Binky I tend to act like I don’t like him.  And Binky returns the favor if you have ever read the comments on my posts.

    So yes.  The first ugly cousin of the cute koala are wombats/wombies.   Well really just Binky (the rest of the wombies are cute).

  • Rent Textbooks & Binky Caricatures

    Binky of Wombania.com Cartoon by Bearman of beartoons.com

    Third and fourth winners of my 500th post caricature contest are up today.  First is the loveable Binky from Peter Marinacci’s Wombania.   Peter was too shy for a caricature so he asked the rocket and chocolate loving Binky to stand in for him.

    Next up is the person that many thought was a spammer.  I mean who goes by the name “Rent Textbooks“.  Somehow I realized her comments were just a little smarter than a typical spammer so I kept her from the dump pile.  It has paid off and now not only is she a regular commenter but she is allowing me to out her publicly on my site.  First up is the caricature:

    And the real her (in case you were wondering):

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    It didn’t help my cause that she sent me three completely different looks. ha   She said she was a big fan of the water and the beach thus the setting.

    Some final good news.  So many times you see great bloggers and cartoonists give up the web for other things.  One of them was one of the first followers of Beartoons, Brogan from Artic Blast Comic.  Well I am happy to say he is back.  The site url is the same but the name is changed to Inkee Doodles Studios.  Go show him some love.
