The Punchin’ Bag 7: Zone Defense
The Punchin’ Bag encounters an inescapable realm: the friendzone.
Is the friendzone real? Is it a matter of confidence? Is it wrong to expect something out of a relationship with the opposite sex and not accept it for what it is, which may just be friendship? Or does the pain of liking someone and them not liking you back make “just being friends” too difficult to realistically pull off?
My wife and I debate the merits of lamenting being friendzoned, herself having to deal with guys who acted like friends but turned a cold shoulder once they realized “it” wasn’t happening, and myself mired in several friendzones in my youth, lamenting that a girl I liked just didn’t see me “that way”.

We discuss Jane Foster as Thor, Storm as Jack Black, as well as a brief recap of the years superhero movies. Is a comic from 1977 capable of female empowerment? Is Loki stuck up a tree? Why is Storm’s foot so big, anyway? All these questions and more are answered on the What If Podcast.

The Punchin’ Bag 5: Entry Position
The Punchin’ Bag tackles some entry-level work with The Elite Team. Will it pay off? Does it ever?
While drawing this, I realized I may try to avoid too much of PB in full costume in the future, if only because his round head is hard to draw with pen and ink #butIdigress.

The Punchin’ Bag 4: Compensating
The latest in my webcomic, The Punchin’ Bag, as he tackles the greatest foe of all: soul crushing office work. Check out the rest here, and Gentleman & Scholar Comics here.
As a fan of Office Space, The Office, and a victim of offices myself, this was a cathartic comic.
Cheeseball
Here’s a wonderful, timely parody of Speedball from Marvel’s New Warriors. That’ll teach him for starting the Civil War!
This is actually part of a one-page parody of parodies that may see the light of day…someday.
