SHRINK AND BLOW: JACK GOES CRAZY!!!

Welcome back my CRAZIES!  It's Guest Week!  An The amazing Jack Slade of Scaredemy has come by with an "Out Of This World" comic that'll really "Lighten" up the mood!  Enjoy...

Wow!  Talk about an "Inflated Ego!"  Many have accused Mike of having a "Swollen" head, and this just confirms it!  I suppose stranger things can happen in space!

Jack Slade is the amazing artist behind the hilarious spook comic Scaredemy, the tale of a boy named Simon whose life is turned upside down when he enters his father's alma mater, which just happens to be a boarding school for ghosts, monsters and other ghouls!  Jack's artwork is so fluid and clean you can almost see it move.  And his stories are downright hilarious, among the funniest on the web.  He is also a very dear friend and one of my favorites to chat with on Twitter.  He even taught me how to draw folded arms!  Jack asked me last year to give his "Students" the CRAZY treatment, which you can see here!  Thanks again Jack!  Your talent is always "Expanding!"

Well folks, that's all for today.  We got another Guest Comic coming next week, a special toon from Crispin Wood that'll really "Lift" everybody's spirits!  Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all later! 

COOKIES OF DOOM!!!

It's CRAZY, er, Cookie Season here at the CRAZYVERSE!  Normally, I'd be in hiding right now as every niece I have would be bombarding me with demands to buy Girl Scout Cookies off of them.  But only one niece still does it, and she's already met her quota so her mom laid off the demands!  Yup, all is well.  Or so I thought...

GAAA!!!  Totally forgot about my pals in the web comic realm!  Helen Madden has trained her daughters Pixie and Princess well!  Can't deny such cuteness! ARRRRRRGH!!!

I rarely make appearances in the comics, but this is a special occasion.  Last month, Helen Madden did a wonderful guest strip for the CRAZYVERSARY, inserting Mike and Mindy into her weekly strip Adventures Of A Cynical Woman.  Those goofy kids decided to take a "Bite" out of Pixie and Princess' cookie costumes, so I thought it would only be fair to let the girls have a little bit of CRAZY fun in return.  You kids are shrewd saleswomen!  Hope y'all break some sales records this year!

Folks, we lost a titan recently.  Animal House, Stripes, Caddyshack, Ghostbusters, Back To School, Groundhog Day...  Where would comedy be without these movies?  How sad would life be without these movies?  Flat and simple, Harold Ramis made this World a better place.  He was a huge influence on me and so many others.  Even now, weeks after, I'm still at a loss for words.  He was such a force in comedy, and yet was kinda this silent hero.  To be so good and yet so humble, he really set an example that so many young writers need to be following today.  I'm thankful that Mr. Ramis lived in my lifetime and thankful that he leaves behind such an amazing legacy and library.  Thank you so much Mr. Ramis.  May we meet on the other side.

Well folks, that's all for this week.  We'll be back next time with a New Mike And Mindy guest strip!  Until then, take it easy and I'll catch y'all later!       

"SHOCKING" ANTICS FROM MIKE AND MINDY!!!

Welcome back my CRAZIES!!!  March has descended upon us!  Time sure does fly, but at least we're having fun!  Not a huge update today, but we do have some stuff to talk about.  First and foremost... COMICS!!!  That's right, Mike and Mindy are back and ready to "Charge" into the Spring!  Enjoy...

Talk about a "Shocking" result!  Say what you will about those two, but there's never any "Static" action with them!  Good thing they got an ample supply of striped shirts and purple dresses!

Well folks, CRAZY In Pink is still alive but desperately needs help!  Kim and I HAVE an animation studio already lined up and a voice cast set.  We are not just doing this by the seat of our pants.  We honest-to-God have a plan!  We even have new INSTANT INCENTIVES which can be viewed here! Please support this effort!  This isn't just to benefit Picpak Dog and Mike And Mindy.  If this works, we WILL be doing more animation projects with MORE web comic standouts!  Please believe in us!

Well folks, that's all for this week.  I'll be back next time with a new Mushrooms that'll leave everybody scared!  Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all later!

MARK GETS CRAZY!!!

Well, we've come to it at last.  The closing of the CRAZYVERSARY.  Now, now, don't be sad.  We had a great time and saw many wonderful guest strips!  There's no reason to cry.  No seriously, stop crying!  It's about to get even wetter momentarily thanks to the guest strip by Mark Stokes of Zombie Boy...

Poor Mindy.  You think she'd know better than to ask Mike to help cure her hiccups!  Bloated and squeezed ain't a nice way to treat girls Mike!  At least her nostrils got cleared though.  And as any good denizen of the CRAZYVERSE knows, what goes around ALWAYS comes around with these two!  Enjoy your revenge Mindy!

Mere words aren't enough to describe the amount of respect I have for Mark Stokes, creator of Zombie Boy, one of the first true web comics.  Mark is more than a friend, he's also a mentor and not just to me, but to so many other aspiring cartoonists out there.  He's a very kind and giving man and I'm thrilled to count him among the CRAZY!  I even did this guest strip for him last month, a little piece called "Bloomer Buds."  Thanks again Mark.  It was an honor to have The King on board!

Well, thus ends the 2014 CRAZYVERSARY.  Thank you all so much for joining me in this celebration.  I wanna thank all my great artist pals for helping me out and for taking such good care of my "kids!"  And thank you to the many wonderful fans of the CRAZYVERSE!  Your kindness and support has been great these last four years and well into year five.  I know this may be the end of the line for the original strips, but I promise there's still plenty of water left in this well.  The best is yet to come!  Thank you again and God bless all of you.

Next week, the regularly scheduled CRAZINESS returns with an "Electrifying" New Mike And Mindy!  Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all later!

STEPHEN GETS CRAZY!!!

Welcome back!  Time keeps on ticking... ticking... ticking... Into the future... Oh wait, that's a different deal!  Nope, we're just ticking away at the CRAZYVERSARY Stephen Beals of Adult Children has stopped by to"Lift" our spirits!  Enjoy...

 Whoa!  Talk about a well "Rounded" diet!  Poor little Claremont.  Who knew such a little dog could hold so much air!  What's the PSI on a K9 anyway? (Only in the CRAZYVERSE can such questions be pondered!)

 Stephen Beals is a fabulous cartoonist known for his series Adult Children, a funny slice of life comic that hits home for so many of us that realize how absurd adulthood really is!  One of the characters is a little dog called Claremont.  As Stephen explained to me, Claremont saw this comic and decided he wanted to give Mike and Mindy a little break.  Little did he know just how "Big" the CRAZY duo's responsibilities can really be!  The look on his face is priceless!  Thanks so much for this lovely toon Stephen!  Claremont should take advantage of his expanded size with the neighborhood big dogs before deflating!

Well folks, that's all for today, and the great Mark Stokes is up tomorrow to make sure this party don't end in a "Wash!"  Until then, take it easy and I'll catch y'all later!

JESSE GETS CRAZY!!!

Middle of the week!  The last hump day of the 2014 CRAZYVERSARY!  So let's cut to the "Chase" and get right to it!  Jesse Kiefer of Tank-Monkey dropped in, and he's "Plowing" on through...

Oh my!  And you thought they were dangerous with Helium tanks and anvils!  Mike and Mindy in a tank... OH THE HUMANITY!!!

Jesse Kiefer is the brilliant mind behind the web comic Tank-Monkey, the tale of a rescued lab monkey and his deep love of tanks!  Jesse's also a huge wrestling fan like me and together we've had some pretty wild conversations about the good, the bad and the hilarious of that CRAZY industry known as sports entertainment!  Jesse's a really cool dude and a great pal!  Thanks again Jesse!  And I apologize in advance for any damages those two may cause in that tank!

Well, folks, that's all for today.  Stephen Beals of Adult Children pops in tomorrow with a "Larger" than life toon!  Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all later!

WARREN GETS CRAZY... AGAIN!!!

Welcome back my CRAZIES!  Got a very special treat today!  My pal Warren Frantz of Off Season delivered this awesome strip playing on a "Friendly" rivalry that began last year!  Enjoy...

Hoo boy them Golz Gals are something else!  At least no fights broke out this time around!  Can't wait to see how this competition plays out next time!

Warren Frantz is one of the coolest guys I know, hands down.  Always there for me with helpful advice and encouragement, I truly am honored and lucky to have such a good friend like him.  His comics are always hilarious and never fail to bring smiles!  Be sure to checkout the Off Season's current storyline: The BrOlympics!  Thanks again Warren, brother!  Gayle and Gloria are always welcome to play another round with Mike and Mindy!  Perhaps even become Bloomer Buds!

Well, that's all for now.  Jesse Kiefer of Tank Monkey is up tomorrow, and his comic is truly a blast!  Until then, take care and I'll catch y'all next time!
