Mean Time Estimates

Time estimates are fiendishly difficult with complex projects and despite the depiction in this comic everyone is trying to do the best for their team and chances are they are all going to be wrong with their estimates. The comic shows the disparity of estimates given the combination of technical understanding of the effort as well as the chances of being yelled at by the client. It is a very arrangement made for comical effect.
Desktops

Web developers/programmers and designers need to work closely together if those duties are handled by different people. As a lead web developer I had ample opportunities of seeing the desktops of my fellow developers and the talented designers and how different their minds worked. This comic showcases the disparity in the laptop desktops. I created it with two little JavaScript-powered web pages, one for each desktop, to add emojis as the icons. I took the photos used as the backgrounds.
Blocks To Slippers

If you have ever been to a house with young kids and popular plastic building blocks you know just how much they hurt when you step on them. This comic speculates on the real impetus for selling the blocks.
Early Bird

The early bird gets the worm is a common saying about hard work. This comic has fun with that.
Construction Zone

Many spiders recreate their webs every morning so those webs are always construction zones (kind of like U.S. roads). This comic shows a spider displaying a construction zone sign.
See Further

Sir Isaac Newton not only revolutionized phyics with his historic Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (better known as Principia) but also created calculus. He once said, " If I have seen further it is by standing on the sholders [sic] of Giants."
Timeline Astronomy

A comic having fun with the fact that our ancestors described the night sky in terms of gods and magic, then mathematics with the contributions of Galileo, Newton, and others, and then back to magic with the works of Einstein, Hubble, and Hawking.
Too Much Information

Kids love asking lots of questions, especially if they think they are being annoying. This comic shows what would happen if you actually answered them.
Dragonfly

Dragonflies are remarkable insects. They have the highest percentage of their body weight dedicated to their flying muscles of any insect. They are capable of maneuvering like a helicopter or a high performance airplane. This comic compares them to the venerable P-51 Mustang.
Mermaids

Mermaids are creatures of folklore typically associated with watery disasters. This comic plays with the assumption that the mermaids are really trying to help sailors rather than harm them.
