FTM: Pretzel's Vacation P6: Life In a Comic Strip


Ah, A new month. I like to start of a month with good ol' Foobini. The new idea I used in this one was I: a. Added a space in the bottom for speech bubbles and b. Made the trash can go across all the panels. Aside from that, this is a joke on comic strips. One minute they're in the trash, the next they're out, and the next (next strip) they're home talking about how peanuts have feeling. It's crazy. Anyway, as I said, in over a week I will post another 3 days of Foobini with Pretzel's Vacation P7: I'm Home! And I brought you a peanut! and then FTM: Panel line parts 1 and 2. Enjoy the strip!

FTM: Pretzel's Vacation P5: Sorrio Aboutio the Britishio Sterio Typeio


#5 in the series out of 7. After the 7th strip I have 2 more ready, but 7 and the Panel line series P1&2 will be a little later. Sorry for the stereotype, but that's who Andrew Peanut is. Something new will be coming up in the next strip, so be ready.

FTM: Pretzel's Vacation P4: Nightmare?

Meet Andrew, the Intellectual Peanut. A warning: for the next strip, if you don't like British stereotypes, do not read the next strip. This is not my funniest, but hey, I need to move the story along. It's another 3-Days of Foob, so get ready. Not much more to say about this. I've re-re-hired my editor (me) so there is nothing wrong in this strip. Oh well.

You Know What I Hate? 2: Foobini's Epic Fail


You know what I hate? I hate when you have two good ideas, one leading to another, and there's no good way to transition them. Here's an example: (Look Above).

If you've been keeping track of Foobini, this is the strip I said I would not post. I lied. It has no punchline and only gets him to the trash can. (I meant to add a TO BE CONTINUED...)

When you need to move a storyline along, you need something that's not this. I just wish I had a good way to move it along. Any ideas? Comment.

FTM: Pretzel's Vacation P3: Bagged

This is the next FTM installment. Next he will be in a trash can. I am telling you this because I feel my transition strip was bad so I will skip it. I now realize I left out pretzel's speech lines AND I misspelled cousin. It shouldn't be like that. I shall fire my editor. Oh, wait, I did that yesterday. I have no editor. That must be why today's strip is so bad. Noah, you're rehired. Noah, since today's strip was bad, you're refired. There. (Darn, lost my job AGAIN!)

FTM: Pretzel's Vacation P2: Lost Love

It's the 3 days of Foobini! Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow I will post Foobini strips. This is # 2 in the series. Once again, the thing on Pretzel's head is a hat. I now realize this is not the best series to do, seeing as computer pretzels are hard to draw. Oh well. I just realized Pretzel lost his hat in panel two. As creator of Pearls Before Swine comic strip Stephan Pastis said when he realized a bush was left uncolored, I shall fire my editor. Oh, wait. I AM my editor. Darn.

Foobini the Marshmallow: Pretzel's Vacation Part 1

I knew after starting with Foobini, I needed to add some more strips soon. This strip is part of a Pretzel's vacation series. I chose it because it:
  1. Introduces a character, Andrew the intellectual peanut
  2. It is an okay series
  3. It will keep me busy for a while
With these strips, there is one transition strip I will leave out. The only bad thing about this is pretzel is hard to draw online. Look forward to more. Enjoy!

Foobini the Marshmallow


I make a strip called Foobini the marshmallow. I am thinking about posting some good strips here. This strip is the first one. In the future, I will be scanning in the strips, so they will look better. The introductory strips are not as good as I would like them to be. I will discuss the characters here so I don't have to introduce them.

Foobini: The Main character and a marshmallow. He is critical of the strip

Pretzel: Foobini's best friend

Abe Lincoln, the Penny: Foobini's second best friend

Noah: Me. The creator of the strip and a stick figure.

Zneffella: Originally a critic, he is very hateful of the strip and evil. He starts out as my stuffed bunny who I talk to, then he responds and criticizes my work.

Bad Milk: A carton of spoiled milk who thinks he's "bad".

Kate the Marshmallow: Foobini's girlfriend.

Erzel: Kate's star trek obsessed geek brother

Joe: Kate's boring dad

Andrew the intellectual peanut: A smart British peanut.

Andrew: My friend, the peanuts namesake and a crazy cocreator (just in the strip) of FTM.

Ulysses Matzoh: A piece of Matzoh who is like a surfer dude

The Elephraternity: A fraternity of drunk elephants

Bob the Hobo teddy bear: Just what he sounds like

Boothe: A voting booth determined to assassination Abe the penny

More to come!
