Dave Coverly’s ‘Speed Bump’: 30 Comics Featuring Everyday Humor And Hilarious Animals (New Pics)
Interview With ArtistDave Coverly, the cartoonist behind the comic strip "Speed Bump," delves into the humor and peculiarities of people, popular culture, and most importantly, the animal kingdom. Dave's single-panel cartoons are sharp, clever, and full of insightful commentary.
In a previous interview, this awarded cartoonist shared where he gets his inspiration for comics: "The two most important things to me are: the ideas should try to be relevant to the experiences we all have in common, and the ideas should be *about* something. I do make jokes sometimes just for a joke's sake, but the cartoons that really excite me are the ones that are both humorous and have something to say. I think the relevance and the thoughtfulness in a successful panel are what make certain cartoons more relatable. As Mark Twain said, 'There's a kernel of truth in every jest,' and I think that's so good to keep in mind when writing observational humor."
So, without further ado, let's see what Dave has cooked up since our last post.

The soft can-opener doesn't have a tail, at least, not in the back.

You know, it might not be a bad idea to ask "Do you have any pets?" on interviews.
Our dogs would beg. Often dinner would be a big salad. Offer them lettuce, they'd take it, chew on it, spit it out, give us what appeared to be a disbelieving & dirty look, then beg again. More lettuce...repeat. Eventually they'd give up, sure that we weren't really eating that stuff.
we will wait till he goes to the tree in the corner and then we will sniff his bar stood seat
*dog turns* "Dave please don't disrespect my work this job is about to pay off the house"
These were pretty darn cute. Some of them remind me of the absurd humour you find in the NewYorker magazine comics.
