50 Clever And Wholesome Comics By Mark Parisi That Capture Life’s Funniest Moments
Interview With Artist
Mark, recently honored as “Cartoonist of the Year,” continues to charm readers worldwide with his clever humor and relatable storytelling. Reflecting on his work in an interview with Bored Panda, he noted, “I use a lot of humor in my cartoons because characters have so much personality, and they’re simply fun to draw.”
When asked about audience reactions, he explained that responses are consistent across his comics: “Pet owners are generous in expressing their joy, and I think we all love humor about living with these little critters.” On receiving the NCS Reuben Award, he described it as “the biggest honor I’ve ever received. It’s voted on by my peers, and that means everything to me… Honestly, I don’t think I’d be here without the inspiration I get from dogs and cats.”

That one really seemed to strike a chord and received a great reaction,” he shared.

I remember being so happy when he finally caught road runner, and the little "now what" sign had me howling with laughter.
Interestingly, audiences react much the same way whether Mark draws cats or dogs. Both resonate deeply with pet lovers. “I usually get similar reactions whether I do dog or cat cartoons. Pet owners are generous in expressing their joy, and I think we all love humor about living with these little critters,” he said.

Finally, we asked what winning the prestigious “Cartoonist of the Year” award meant to him. Mark emphasized how meaningful it was to be recognized by his peers. “The NCS Reuben is the biggest honor I’ve ever received. It’s voted on by my peers, and that means everything to me. I don’t know if it will change anything for me professionally, but personally, I feel enormously grateful. Honestly, I don’t think I’d be here without the inspiration I get from dogs and cats,” he concluded.

Specialist nurse/nurse practitioner usually draws blood here in The UK- they also administer flu jabs etc.
