I like Greenades and Ham

(It has been a while since I've drawn a cartoon, I know. The Cat & Mouse series should be back soon....)

Cat & Mouse by Cynful Comics

I guess I could make my comics a weekly thing. If you want to be guest comic story writer/artist, just shoot me a comment and we could definitely work something out. On a side note, I cannot wait to get chinese ink and bamboo brush from the art store; then, incorporate such media in comics. I definitely can draw better than this... though I might keep all my characters leg-less for now, until a petition for legs by either readers or my characters ensues.
Self-deprecating humour. Epic Fail: When Cyn learns to cook a dish with just ingredients, sans proper instructions. This comic strip is dedicated to Mike and Amy.

Yes, I shall find out how Mom cooks prawns or shrimps because it's not supposed to be fishy. (The failure was so epic that a photograph of the dish could go down to Ripley's Believe it or Not's headquarters. The batter turned out to be clumpy; shrimps very very naked and red, but was covered in "sauce".)

Cynful Comics: In the Life of a University Student

AH, yes. I'm trying to find humour beneath being buried by many research projects. You know it's definitely crunch-time if you're a university kid and April is flirting around the corner. Having worked with many different groups before, I find, sometimes, it really is hard to communicate with some people -- especially in the storming and norming phases of the team process. Some people want instant gratification of it being done while they have absolutely no clue which direction the project is going; I have the tendency to step up as the leader/coordinator of the project when nobody else will. I would make sure everyone has every member's contact information; etc. Well, sometimes in life, no matter how hard you try to make the mission statement clear or try to get everyone to contribute fairly, you've got to work with what you have and make the best out of it. The challenge I always face is to not create any negative energy when expectations are not met, but rather work with it. After all, group projects is a mini-threshold into the "real world"; or so my dad would speak in cliches and metaphors.

Below is a comic I drew earlier this morning. Disclaimer: This is not a direct representation of any event/incident that happened in real life. Even if it were, it would be made fictional and be completely blown out of proportion for the sake of comic humour.
