A single-panel color comic strip in the Mad Monday series, credited to Scott Gallatin. Set against a light blue background with halftone dot shading. Two men face each other. On the left, a younger dark-haired man with a goatee and a gray jacket looks skeptical and slightly irritated, his speech bubble reading "I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW YOU CAN BE SO HAPPY ON A MONDAY." On the right, an older heavyset man with a walrus-style gray mustache, a round nose, and a blue t-shirt grins broadly with eyes nearly closed in contentment, responding through two bubbles: "EASY" and "I HAVEN'T READ A SINGLE EMAIL SINCE FEBRUARY OF 2016."

The secret to happiness has been right there in your inbox this whole time but you're still not going to look.

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

Posted on August 4, 2014 by Scott
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.
