The next series of “guest” Minions at Work cartoons shot at the 2006 Joelanta convention were done on a huge and amazing zombie apocalypse diorama created by the amazing Mike Gardner. A belated thanks to Mike (these weren’t credited first[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Minions at Work Classics
Hmmm. It actually looks like I have more Joelanta comics than I thought, so they might just run into next week, after this year’s Joelanta is over. Thanks again to Tom Brooks for shooting these back at Joelanta 2006.
We continue our “guest” Minions from the Joelanta 2006 GI Joe collector’s convention. Unfortunately, I don’t know who is responsible for this amazing 1/6th scale tank. It’s really nice though. Now, why I’m not at Joelanta this year. I’ve never[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

This is How it Always Happens
I love scenes, in the locker-room, or lunch room, or just in an abandoned warehouse, where the Minions are just kind of hanging out. I think this may have been the first time after getting them that I could have[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Let Me Tell You a Joke!
Is this the laziest cartoon ever, or simply brilliant? I can’t decide. So much I love about this one: The color, the textures, the number of characters, the details. It pushes a lot of buttons for me. Also, I just[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
