Storming the Castle – A Low-Brow Cartoon

It's about time.

It's about time.

This cartoon is called “Storming the Castle,” and I came up with the idea for this one while drinking a pint of Guinness on a park bench across from the police station. Anyway, exactly where I was and precisely what I was doing at the time that I scribbled a primitive rough sketch for this cartoon is not important. What is important is that I didn’t get caught drinking in public. Had I been arrested for such a gross affront to public decency, I would have been tossed in the slammer, unable to complete a finished drawing because I would not have had access to my art supplies.

Just to let you know, that paragraph you just read is mainly a load of crap. What is true is that I was enjoying a fine pint of Guinness in a dark urban pub when I came up with the idea for this cartoon. I hope that you enjoy it. And, happy Hump-Day!

  2. I told you they wouldn’t send the charmin, this time they mean business. Hell, can’t be sure; but it looks like the single-ply batallion from the 7-eleven or Interstate Rest Area, rough and hard to handle.

  6. Those are some pretty damn funny comments. I hope the bizarre scene depicting TP’s attempts at revolution made Wednesday a little easier to deal with. (I was laughing to myself when I finished this one up the other night – I am sooo simple- minded.)

  10. After getting caught toilet papering the neighbors house, gramps sat little Timmy down and told him the story of the first “Toilet Papering”.

  11. So your telling me that the Castle and the asses in there represent AIG, and the rolls of toliet paper represent the American public. I guess that makes sense

  15. The young rebels would NOT be following in the elders footsteps.They refused to perform the dirty jobs and then get tossed aside without a care!
