Opening up the vault to see the cartoon published one year ago today.
More cartoons, Guffaws and fun at the official website:
My cartoons don't just live in newspapers and inboxes—they are also available as Greeting Cards, this is a card from the For Arts Sake range.
FUN FACT: This Carpark idea above was the first and only idea ever written by my wife.
Occasionally I like to escape the studio and follow my other creative passion, landscape photography.

And Now…I’d like to personally wish all the Racehorses out there a very Happy Birthday. Hope there is plenty of cake in the paddock to share and you receive some wonderful gifts. Perhaps a voucher from Horseland to spend on… say something like…GastroAID. For when your Equine friend isn’t feeling quite right.
For all your Equine needs.
ABOUT THIS NEWSLETTER
My goal for this newsletter is modest, to be something to look forward to. A silly fun thing in your inbox that isn't a bill, Just a trusted daily friend where you’ll be happy to give up a few moments in your day and be transported into an imaginary world.
Insanity Streak has been drawn every single day by hand since April 1st, 2000. That start was no coincidence. It has won 15 Stanley Awards for best comic strip — the Oscars of Australian cartooning, as voted by industry peers.
Insanity Streak is currently published in over 15 countries, and is estimated to be read daily by over one million readers, which is either a testament to the engaging capacity of comics, or a major clerical error that has gone unnoticed. This newsletter exists because while print media is wonderful, scientists have placed it on the endangered list due to the threat of the modern media ecosystem and the mass migration by the glowing glass rectangles.
Disclaimer:
Reading this newsletter may cause mild amusement, spontaneous smirking, improved mental health, and a sudden urge to ignore your actual work. Please, If symptoms persist, keep reading.
Keep the Streak Alive.

Please don’t keep this newsletter to yourself, why not share it to a friend who needs a laugh.
No natural forest, animals or Insulin resistant Podcast hosts were harmed during the making of this newsletter, although I got a nasty paper cut while clearing a jam in the printer, so be careful.
