This Legendary Cartoonist’s Comics Are Just What You Need To Brighten Your Day (30 Pics)

Published 4 years ago

Mark Parisi is a New England-born artist who has been creating funny Off the Mark comic strips for nearly 34 years now. During these years, the artist has created over 10,000 cartoons, and they’re still as cheeky and accurate as they were when they first came out.

In a recent interview with Bored Panda, Mark said he knew he wanted to cartoon ever since he could hold a crayon. Some of his biggest inspirations were American cartoonist Charles M. Schulz and MAD magazine, although it wasn’t until he saw Gary Larson’s comics that he knew what type of comics he should be doing. “Now I’m inspired by everything that happens in life, from pets to pop culture to pandemics,” revealed the artist.

Check out a collection of some of Mark’s funniest comics in the gallery below!

Aušrys Uptas

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
