issue 125 - Gregory: the really angry robot

I have a habit, in case you haven't noticed, of using a similar concept for more than one issue. If the joke seems to be funny one way and wil play itself out in a funny way again.... then I sort of recycle it. Here is a prime example. It was funny to me using myself in the comic, but I thought it was also funny using Spongebob and less familiar. You expect me to act the way I did in issue 124, but perhaps you wouldn't expect the same behaviour from Rob Zombie. Anyway.... ENJOY!

issue 124 - Gregory: the really angry robot

This issue is HOT off the presses! (I mean, I literally just finished it 2 minutes ago.) The concept is not new, but everything else is. I love including Rob Zombie and this is kind of the way I think it would go down.... if I was ever to be in the same room with him. That's it for this week, look for Rob to be back again next week! In the meantime, ENJOY!

issue 122 - Gregory: the really angry robot

It's no secret that I LOVE Rob Zombie and I LOVE Spongebob Squarepants. (no 'K' in his name.) A while back, I introduced both of them into the 'Gregory-verse' and then introduced them to each other. It was bound to happen that they would meet again and here it is! I actually told this joke originally to a friend, but it seemed more appropriate to have Spongebob deliver it, rather than me. Anyway, here's the fruit of that labor. ENJOY!

issue 104 - Gregory: the really angry robot

The best way (and the way I intended it to be read) to read 'Gregory' is one panel at a time. Even if there are no words, that panel was created for a reason. Either for a subtle change of eyebrows or a slight movement or just to create a pause.... there is a reason for everything I do. This issue is a prime example. It was written at the height of the re-booted 'Batman' craze. Christopher Nolan had made 'Batman' cool again and it was all anyone could talk about. Out of that popularity came this idea. What would Sam Raimi's 'Spider-Man' think of all the hype around Christopher Nolan's 'Batman'? The result is what you're about to read. ENJOY! (I believe this is the issue with the least words used.)

issue 103 - Gregory: the really angry robot

Spongebob meeting Rob Zombie makes a lot more sense than you would think. If you're a fan of Rob's, you'll understand why. This issue was done before it made sense though and seemed like a good idea at the time. Would either of them find it funny? I hope so.... I don't want to die in my sleep. The joke may be an oldie, but it's still a goodie. ENJOY!

issue 102 - Gregory: the really angry robot

I stole Spongebob.... plain and simple. There is no hiding who he is and I don't care. I wanted him to be a part of the strip and now he is! This is the 'get to know you' issue. The next one is where things get uncomfortable. ENJOY!

issue 100 - Gregory: the really angry robot

When I started this goofy little comic strip, I never saw it going anywhere.... let alone, all the way to 100 issues! Well, once something takes on a life of its own, who knows how far it will go? This is the first mega sized issue that I've done. I have done more panels before, but not like this. This was a labor of love and a great way to celebrate 100 issues of stupidity. ENJOY! (The issue was too large to put in one big piece, as it couldn't be read. So, I broke it up into 5 parts that can be enlarged for easier reading.)

issue 99 - Gregory: the really angry robot

I have a huge mancrush on Rob Zombie.... HUGE. Unless you know me, then you don't understand. It's strictly a artist respecting mancrush. I'm sort of a fan of his music, but the majority of it is his film making. I own all his films and have lost count as to how many times I have seen them. It was only natural that he would appear in my comic at some point. The artwork doesn't do him the justice he deserves, but it's MS Paint after all. This is the lead in to the over sized 100th issue. Get ready....! ENJOY!

issue 96 - Gregory: the really angry robot

It just keeps going and going and going.... but this time, I've brought a new little friend! These issues just prove that if something gets under my skin, it really gets under my skin. Thank god for that. I'd never have any comedy otherwise. My favorite part of this issue is The Pipe Smoking Horse's reaction to the last panel. Priceless. ENJOY!

issue 90 - Gregory: the really angry robot

I really wish I could go back in time and re-live whatever it was that made me create certain issues. This is a prime example. I don't know if I've ever even seen an episode of Boobah, but the joke was based on the stupid rhyme I came up with. After that, just plug in Dennis and all is good! This issue makes me feel dirty. ENJOY!

issue 87 - Gregory: the really angry robot

As I was having to sit through 'The Legend of Zorro', I came across the scene with the pipe smoking horse. A lightning bolt from the sky hit me and I HAD to add him to the strip! He fits right in with The Smoking Moose and The Smoking Goose. It was too perfect. This issue also allowed me to rehash the "Horses are pretty." joke. A classic. ENJOY!

issue 82 - Gregory: the really angry robot

As you can clearly see, my skills with MS Paint are put to the test here with a full body shot of myself. It's not a pretty sight, but it had to be done for the sake of the joke. Samara is back and hilarity ensues. ENJOY!

issue 81 - Gregory: the really angry robot

More fun with Fat Damon and Fat Affleck! This time, it's for keeps. That's all I have to say about that. ENJOY!

issue 80 - Gregory: the really angry robot

When my friends and I sit around, weird things happen. Out of one of those sitting around sessions, the concept of Fat Damon was born. He's basically Matt Damon, the actor, but he's overweight. And of course, if you have Fat Damon.... you need Fat Affleck. The whole concept was really funny to myself and the others in the room, when it was created. Again, I don't know how well it translates. I still giggle when I see them and you'll see them again.... trust me. ENJOY! (oh and by the way, this is not a dig on overweight people.... my apologies to anyone who is offended.)

issue 59 - Gregory: the really angry robot

My hero, Charles Bronson, makes his triumphant return to Gregory: the really angry robot! This time, instead of meeting Dennis, he gets to meet Billy the Belligerent Bot. Oh boy.... ENJOY!

issue 45 - Gregory: the really angry robot

Yet another celebrity makes a stop in the Gregory-verse. This time, it's Dennis DeYoung of the band Styx. I hate Dennis DeYoung. It's implied that Gregory did something to him to make him 'go away'. I'll leave the rest of what happneed up to you. (by the way, if you heard the promo for the return of Greogry, before you started reading this, STYX's song 'Mr. Roboto' is used. Define irony.) ENJOY!

issue 39 - Gregory: the really angry robot

This would be the first issue where I say anything. Previously, I was the strong silent type.... or just the one who made goofy faces. With this issue, I'm not sure what was more of an incentive: Bringing PJ Harvey back or drawing lots of confetti. Either way, what's done is done and it can't be unseen. ENJOY!

issue 35 - Gregory: the really angry robot

Once again, a celebrity of sorts pops up. This time, it's Spider-Man. I kind of wonder why I chose a pager instead of a cell phone in this issue? I think cell phones were popular enough that Spider-Man would have had one. I don't know. It was a strange time. The joke is still there and it established yet another character to throw in once and a while to mix things up. ENJOY!

issue 23 - Gregory: the really angry robot

It's kind of funny how some of my 'celebrity' characters are drawn to look exactly like their real life counterparts. Others are drawn to have similarities or at least that's what I'm trying to do. In this case, PJ Harvey really doesn't look like her, but looks like an MS Paint version of her from her album art for 'Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea'. I also don't truly believe that she's all that angry of a lady. At least not all the time. I do still love her and her music. (that's why I'm in this issue too!) ENJOY!
