Funeral Theater – A New Cartoon
The next generation of funeral home operators.
Happy Wednesday to all! I’ve got a new cartoon for you that’s sure to grant me an extra-special space in Hell (that’s my hope at least – I’ve seen alarming images of those begging way too hard go to Heaven, and I just have to make sure that I’m as far away from them as humanly possible).
Anyway, this cartoon was inspired by the melding of entertainment options (Broadway musicals on ice) and America’s obsession with death and cheap food. There you have it! That’s all that went into this one – that and some black ink and an extremely robust allergy to all things righteous. So, enjoy. And, please leave comments, or damn me to Hell if you must.
THIS IS NOT THE CAPTION CONTEST, BUT FEEL FREE TO POST A FEW CAPTIONS, OR JUST SHARE A THOUGHT OR TWO.

I’m in a band, and that’s the way I want to go – except I want a keg on my casket.
The cat cartoon is funny. This one is not! The drawing is very good – too bad it’s wasted on such abhorrent subject matter.
Yo Man!!! I told you we would kill them!!!
“..you put your whole self in and shake it all about. You do the Hokey Pokey and turn yourself around and that’s what it’s all about.”
Most I know are choosing cremation and no service.
This is addressed to Libby: Chill out! Do you really think that this is such an awful subject for a cartoon? Have you read the papers lately? Do you follow cultural trends? (Do you pick on other cartoonists?) I believe that this is where we’re headed – if we’re not there already.
I don’t believe in other people’s hell. I’ve got my own to look after.
There aren’t many other cartoonists to “pick on.” Most just post their work in portfolio-type sites. Listen, don’t take it so personally, I like your cartoons, and you have a lively site – it’s just that sometimes you get carried away.
“I told you not to mic the drums!!”
To the owner of the grey VW vanagon with th.. is it green?, OK… To the owner of the GREEN VW vanagon with the Grateful Dead bumper stickers… you left your lights on… and to the owner of the BLUE VW vanagon with the Grateful Dead bumper stickers… your van is double parked, and to the owner of the ORANGE VW vanagon with the Grateful Dead bumper stickers…, your van is on fire and there’s a large crowd standing downwind…
In an effort to increase the church coffers during the ever worsening economy, Father Murphy takes a part time singing gig
New Depression era singing sensation,”Father O’Malley and the new alter boys”!!
“…and all this can be yours with the purchase of your prepaid burial plan for just $25,000. Sit down dinner and drinks not included.”
I’m impressed. You guys really ran with this one – nice work! Let me know if you want to see more cartoons that are both a bit morbid and slightly twisted. (I like to think that I’m paying tribute to Charles Addams.)
1. We’ll throw you one hell of a party when you go!
2. Not everyone gets angels and trumpets when they die…
Would have made an interesting contest.
Isn’t this a scene out of “Jesus Camp?”
Oh, no, forget that, they have CHILDREN doing those crazy religious camps.
James – way to go, funny!
