In the Beginning…

Friday, October 24th, 2008

G-d created the Heavens and the Earth. And this ol’ world of His has been known to get pretty dark from time to time. On such an occasion, G-d says, “Let there be light humor right about…now! I can use a good laugh”.

“Of Biblical Proportions” is a new strip that will inspire you to look at the routine with fresh new eyes. The Bible is the #1 best-selling book in the world, which is certainly no small feat. The words have been constantly retold and studied intensely for thousands of years.  They have outlasted many generations of people and witnessed unbelievable technological advancements. This strip will investigate those same words and storylines with fresh new eyes and a whole lotta jokes.

What would happen if Noah had Satellite TV? How can a quote from the Bible help fuel a little boy’s argument in favor of adopting a dog? The Bible is an everlasting source of inspiration, and through humor we will investigate how the words of yesterday are just as impactful and relevant today.

Stay tuned each week for a brand new strip, and a brand new smile. Get ready for…

A Comic Strip of Biblical Proportions

OBP Comics Returns this Friday!

Monday, December 1st, 2008

Hey guys! Of Biblical Proportions has been on a short hiatus for the last few weeks, as a two-week trip abroad and Thanksgiving had prevented me from updating. But stay tuned for a whole lotta catching up this week!

Thanks for your patience - hope you had a very happy Turkey Day!

Chanukah Cartoons - but no new strip today!

Friday, December 26th, 2008

Hi guys,

Happy Chanukah! Due to the zaniness of the holiday, there is no comic strip this week. Stay ‘tooned next week for two new strips.

Instead, here is a Chanukah greeting I created for my company, Hey Yiddle Diddle Productions:

Also, check out the two Chanukah eCards and a maze that I designed for the Orthodox Union:
