35 Funny Comics With Unexpected Twists That Poke Fun At Our Society By ToonHole Comics
Ryan Kramer, aka ToonHole Ryan, draws hilarious comics with unexpected twists that give us new insights into how weird our world really is. He’s part of ToonHole—a group of friends who illustrate funny cartoons. Together with his buddies Chris, John, and Mike, Ryan posts awesome content online on Monday and Friday for all of us to enjoy.
Ryan’s currently directing on Looney Tunes at Warner Bros. and he says that apart from making comics, he likes raising kids, enjoys meditation, fitness, and philosophy. He’s a real polymath who also loves breakfast burritos. And who can blame him for that? I mean, who doesn’t like breakfast burritos? Ryan has also released a book called “Don’t Leave Me Hanging” that is chock full of his gag comics. Scroll down for Bored Panda's in-depth interview with Ryan to learn more about his art and creative process! Don't forget to upvote your fave comics and let us know in the comments what you think of them.
The ToonHole dudes have been together since 2010 and all together they’ve drawn more than 1k comics (not to mention some animations as well). You can check out Bored Panda’s post about Ryan’s pal Chris Allison’s cartoons right here and our other post about the entire ToonHole gang’s awesome comics right here.

A Good Time For A Raise
Ryan told Bored Panda that he’s inspired to keep drawing because he gets a satisfying feeling when he finishes something he likes. “It’s extra rewarding if my readership receives it well, too,” he added.
“I developed my style through a fondness of classic cartoons and MAD magazine. I’m also inspired by my peers in the animation industry and the webcomic world,” the illustrator revealed.
We were also interested to find out how Ryan and his friends met and founded ToonHole. “I met the other ToonHole guys in college and we bonded over a love of old cartoons and similar drawing sensibilities. It’s always a challenge to grow your audience consistently since media platforms are always evolving and moving the goalposts. It’s also a challenge to get big accounts and content aggregators to appropriately credit your shared work,” he shared some of the challenges that they as creators faced.

How Will They Know?
Someone I called to wish happy birthday told me that if I don't write on Facebook is like the same as I didn't said nothing. If you would be my friend you would see that I use Facebook as a contact book and not to tell my life.
2020, where you're not officially dating until you plaster all your b******t on social media.
Good grief this is so true. really kind of pathetic. My boyfriend and I finally became friends on facebook, I JOKINGLY asked, well aren't you going to say you are a relationship with me? He says if I have to put that on facebook for you to know we are in a relationship that is pretty sad. Half time you see all these stupid lovey dovey messages they are the most miserable people and are trying to convince themselves how much they love the other person.
It’s funny but I’m confused. It says a minute ago but he’s still typing. I wonder if there could be an extra panel showing if he was typing a follow up message.
Next message: Bye you self centered ,inconsiderate person I wish I had never met
She didn’t show signs of being self centered or inconsiderate, she just seems to have her life revolve around that.
Load More Replies...I unfriend immediately when I see a post like that. And my friends turn from 35 to 20. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
i think it may have a small part to do with declaring your love and intentions with the rest of the world....so maybe they'd be less likely to cruise for other people. Actually saying that they're off the market.
Yea, right....saying it and meaning it are two very different things.

“Writing a good comic means I have to allow time for my mind to wander so I can capture an idea worth drawing,” Ryan told Bored Panda about his creative process. “A comic from start to finish is usually anywhere from 2 to 6 hours depending on complexity and style.”
Ryan added that he feels extremely grateful to have the readership and support that he’s amassed over the last 10 years. “I hope my work ushers a little more joy into the world because making these has surely given me immense pleasure.”
More than 99k people follow Ryan on Instagram and he has nearly 5.5k fans each on Facebook and on Twitter.

Ryan’s friend Chris previously told Bored Panda a bit about what inspiration is like for him personally and gave us some more insights into how the ToonHole squad looks at art and creativity.
For Chris, inspiration is like magic and can come from anywhere: “A conversation, a book, an overheard conversation, a misheard word, or seeing somebody trip on the sidewalk. There are no rules!”
The entire ToonHole gang of friends has different approaches to art and their creative processes. For example, Chris told us that he likes to mix it up and draws some comics digitally and some using analog materials like ink, watercolor, and colored pencil. For Chris, it takes him roughly 3 hours to finish a single comic starting from the thumbnail to the finished piece.
