A four-panel black-and-white comic by Madscott. Panel 1: A stern-faced cat sits alone off panel someone says "Yes, hello... can you please get some help." Panel 2: A second, smaller and more cheerful cat has joined the first; the person off panel clarifies "I was hoping for some human help actually." Panel 3: The perspective shifts to ground level, revealing the recurring bearded man lying flat on the floor, looking up with a pained expression, saying "I know that laying here looks like fun..." Panel 4: A wide shot of the room shows the man splayed on the floor near a window and bookshelf, surrounded by multiple cats sitting calmly nearby, with the speech bubble completing his thought: "But I'm in a lot of pain." The humor lands on the cats' total indifference — one halfheartedly attempted to summon help, but the others are simply enjoying the spectacle of their human on the floor, which to them probably does look like a perfectly reasonable place to lie down.

Cats will not rescue you or get help.. they may sell tickets to your discomfort though

Big Weekend

Posted on September 12, 2014 by Scott
First.. I have a comic almost ready to post.. this week kicked my ass though. My elder Son is turning 15 tomorrow. I really can’t figure that out yet. 15 is about when kids start being people and not just extensions of their parents (in my opinion). I’ll be sharing table space tomorrow with Phil. We’ll be at the Eau Claire Comic Con. EC3

House Keeping

You may or may not have noticed that some of the rougher looking comics have dropped off the site. I did some housekeeping and deleted about a dozen comics that honestly were very rough, or only done in pencil, or were sketch cards. Either I shouldn’t have uploaded them or they should have been part of a blog post. Either way what’s in the comic navigation today should be decent comics and I’ll add more again soon.

A brief and functional update

In the unlikely event that this is the only place online that you look for updates on my life I would like a moment of your time to point you to https://www.facebook.com/madscottcomic. I have been adding quick little updates there mostly because it’s really easy. The sketch cards I’ve been doing typically show up there first only because I upload them directly from my phone. Additionally, I would encourage you to reach out to someone and let them know you’re there and thinking of them.
