]]>In these comics, you’ll find clever puns, aliens who mistakenly use inappropriate sign language to introduce themselves to humans, sharks who are trying to game dating apps, obsessive-compulsive leaf raking, and more.
Created by illustrator and writer Dave Blazek, Loose Parts Comics has been entertaining millions of people for more than two decades. They have been published in more than 120 media outlets in the USA and Canada and continue to be featured in newspapers like The Washington Post, The Philadelphia Inquirer, and the Toronto Sun.
Blazek describes his Loose Parts comics as “oddly intelligent, weirdly entertaining and impulsively funny” while adding that people in them are “dumber than each other” while animals are “smarter than anyone else”.
“It roams living rooms, medieval castles and science labs; it peeks into suburban kitchens and operating rooms and treks to outer space and beyond, all in the search of funny. It views the world from a different angle so you don’t hurt your neck trying to do it for yourself,” Blazek shares.
Even if you are not an avid newspaper reader, you can still check out episodes of Loose Parts Comics thanks to social media. Scroll down to see some of our favorites.

]]>In his Bummer Party comics, Rusty combines a simplistic but eye-pleasing drawing style with hard-hitting jokes. He takes inspiration from everyday situations that he infuses with big doses of silliness. This includes conversations among friends, menial tasks like cooking, and interactions with people on the internet.
Rusty admits that social media is his favorite subject.
“My comics are largely consumed by people I don’t know and will never meet but who know me. Thinking about that parasocial relationship too much can give you the heebie-jeebies, so I try and process it through humor and comics,” Rusty shared with Bored Panda in a recent interview.
Rusty adds that the goal of Bummer Party comics isn’t to challenge people to think about life or prompt emotions. Instead, the artist just wants to provide internet users with some laughs and brighten up their day. Judging by Rusty’s growing following on Instagram and Webtoon, the platform on which he publishes the comic, he is doing just that.

]]>Quickies Comics is a series of single-panel comics that keeps things simple and to the point with effective jokes and a beautifully drawn black-and-white visual style. The comics feature all sorts of subjects ranging from pop culture, with characters like Super Mario and motifs from the Star Wars franchise, to interactions between cutlery and moments from everyday life.
According to Martin, who comes up with the ideas for jokes, most of his inspiration comes from his own life and random moments in his day.
“The challenge of telling a full joke in a single panel is finding the simplest version of the joke – and that’s always the funniest,” Martin explains via Bored Panda.
Murphy and Martin started the series as a pastime activity during the pandemic. However, it didn’t take long before their brand of humor found its way to social media users. They now boast an admirable fan base, including 28.5K followers on Instagram, which turn to their pieces for a quick laugh. Check out more of them below, and you’ll quickly become a fan as well.

]]>Flora hails from Hong Kong, while her husband, Dan, is an American. While living and traveling together, the two discovered that they could often have different views and approaches in the most basic situations, which inspired Flora to capture some of the moments from their everyday life in the form of comics.
These differences are exemplified in all things life, ranging from grocery shopping to restaurant etiquette and house chores.
Flora also draws inspiration from observing her Western friends and comparing their experiences to her own.
“I aim to capture these stories and share them with others to evoke feelings of fun, relatability, and travel inspiration. I want to offer an Asian perspective and maybe make someone think, ‘Oh, I’ve felt that way before,” she shared in a recent chat with Bored Panda.
Flora regularly uploads new comics on her Instagram page, which has a devoted following that is getting larger in numbers. If you want to check out more of her works and see the funny side of cultural differences, continue scrolling.

]]>The post Heart and Brain Comics Imagine What Would Happen if Human Organs Could Talk appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>Created by cartoonist Nick Seluk, Heart and Brain comics imagine what would happen if human organs could talk. They feature all sorts of funny scenarios and conversations that feel quite relatable. For example, most of us experienced situations where our hearts were “telling” us to quit our jobs and pursue our true passions before our brains stepped in and reminded us that we should be more passionate about being able to pay our bills.
Seluk ventured into comic creation in 2012 with The Awkward Yeti comics. The original comic followed the daily life of a blue Yeti named Lars, who would occasionally have conversations with anthropomorphized versions of his heart and brain.
While Heart and Brain were envisioned as side characters, they soon became fan favorites. This prompted Seluk to create a Heart and Brain spin-off comic, which has since outshined the original.
