Pro-life brochure - front cover

These aren't comics, but this is the only personal blog I have, so up they go, for the time being. These are a mock-up of a brochure that Mike Schouten and crew aim to deliver to 67,000 houses on April 16 in the White Rock/Cloverdale area.

So, needless to say, we will need some help. Here's your chance to speak up for the unborn - give me a shout (penguineditor@gmail.com) to sign up to help and for more info about the April 16 event.

(See the rest of the brochure in the posts below this one)

A different kind of shopping list

Heterosexual hypocrite

This comic, and the one below were part of a political brochure explaining the Christian case for Traditional Marriage: one man, one woman, for life. There were a lot of political types at the time arguing against Gay Marriage, but most often their arguments were superficial, or simply wrong. ("Gay Marriage is wrong because it's unnatural" Really? The same was once said about human flight - "it just ain't natural!" So this just ain't a great argument.) A Christian case for real Marriage needed to be made, and that included acknowledging that the current way heterosexuals were treating Marriage was hardly the way things were meant to be either.

If we reject God's standard for Marriage...

The argument for Traditional Marriage - one man, one woman, for life - comes down to this and only this: if we won't use God's standard for Marriage, soon enough we won't have any standard at all, as this comic illustrates. This comic and the one above were part of an article, and a political brochure in defense of Traditional Marriage called Four Stupid Arguments Against Gay Marriage... and One Good One.

Equal stuff or equal treatment

This is not a funny comic, but this is an important idea expressed succinctly (okay, not that succinctly, but you should have seen the original Hayek quote!). It was an illustration for another Human Rights article in Reformed Perspective and reinforced the thrust of the piece.

Another lesson on cartooning for those who don't know how to draw: This involved using a couple of stock images from my source of copyright free pics - the books in the background, and the professor. The original prof picture is the one in the middle. I then used Photoshop to cut off his right arm, copy his left arm, flip it, and then stitch it into place on this right side and... Viola! Two arms holding the book!

Tongue twister

I made this about a a radio, rather than TV news announcer, because:
1) all TV guys have great hair
2) I figure radio guys don't have to have great hair
3) I didn't know how to draw great hair
4) I did know how to draw a bald guy
So, again, cartooning is not always a matter of knowing how to draw really well, but can sometimes be a matter of knowing how to work with what you've got :)

human rights

This was an illustration for an article in Reformed Perspective about how the Canadian Human Rights Commission (CHRC) and its provincial counterparts are abusing religious freedoms. One of the more outrageous examples of this abuse involves a pastor, Stephen Boissoin, who was forbidden from talking about homosexuality. The Bible might make it clear this is a sinful lifestyle, but this Christian pastor was not allowed to say it! For more on this topic, and how to fight this abuse, see HumanRightsCommissions.ca.
