31 days of Pandas starts TODAY!

It’s the beginning of 31 Days of Pandas! Can’t you feel the excitement? I think there is a slight whiff of indictments in the air! Oh…maybe it’s the fresh scent of fir trees and cedars and freshly baked cookies!. My mistake! They are so easily confused!

No matter! Every day this month will bring you some ‘toons from the Panda Chronicle archives, along with your regular NEW ‘toons on Sundays and Wednesdays! I’ll be focusing on the stories of Mr. Wu, in honor of the upcoming Panda Convention in March of 2018!

But for today, in recognition of the recent apocalypse EO signed (but then rescinded) by You Know Who on shipping trophies of murdered elephants into the USA, I thought this trio of ‘toons was in order!

Be very careful…It’s a jungle out there.

What goes around, comes around.

You just can’t trust crocodiles.

Don’t be endangered, be dangerous

Panda on!

Yes, yes, it’s Fabulous Furry Friday, but what with the American Thanksgiving holiday, I was so busy in the kitchen that I never had time to prepare todays encore presentation post. Never fear, I am here now, and here are some toons from the way back machine to cheer your weekend.

I know I ran this one already, but it is appropriate to the day, don’t cha know?

pass the beans!

While we’re thinking of food…

‘Tis the Season!

And a Happy Thanksgiving Weekend to you all!

It’s Friday, and you know what that means! Time for our purported leader to drop another bombshell and then go golfing! Fortunately, while you are rending your garments and gnashing your teeth, we have some classic panda toons to share with you!

Since it is what I like to refer to as “The High Holy Week of the Birthday Season,” I’ll share some of my all time favorites!

and away we go!!!!

Since a week from today is the traditional “Black Friday” shopping extravaganza…

Ah, fall…or something…is in the air!

Boopie and the pandas…

a morality tale…

Remember to tag your luggage!

…in several parts…

…but Boopie and the pandas live happily ever after. Ben does not.

In the words of Mehitabel: This is so disturbing on so many levels!

Don’t want to venture out into the soulless malls? Stock up on The Panda Chronicles Books for all your gift giving needs! Pandas are the gift that keep on giving!

Panda On!

The NSA Has Nothing on Pinky!

4 Replies

Remember when we were all freaked out about the news that the NSA was monitoring our phone calls and internet communications? Yeah…those seem like the good times now! Sad! But as Bubba is soon to find out, that the NSA is a piker when compared to the surveillance capabilities of Princess Pinky! And now she has gone ~~undercover~~ off camera as she has her crew of decorators comes in to give her quarters in Dujiangyan a little updating and sprucing up.

So she says!

There is no telling what Pinky is getting up to and no one knows that better than her adorable and easily manipulated little brother, Bubba. As I was drawing the next ‘toon, I realized that they are inspired, in large part, by none other than Lucy and Linus Van pelt, of Peanuts fame! Am I wrong? But in the meantime, remember….

Pinky knows where you live!!!!

Did you want to rephrase that last statement?

BTW, I have been given permission to post this notice about next years Panda Convention in PanDiego California! Final details are still be worked out as to pricing, but we wanted you to have the opportunity to save the date just in case you might could be in the vicinity of the Pandiego Zoo in early March of 2018!

See Mr. Wu!
Talk about pandas!
Hang out with other panda loving folks!
Rumor has it, Bob T Will be there!

Let’s just cut to the chase, shall we? They’re not flying monkeys, but they are kind of scary! (NOBODY expects the panda kindergarten!)

I just love this part of the story! Look out, Wu!

But we’ve come such a long way already….Bwahahaha!

the wicked witch unleashes the flying monkeys

Ride you pandas! Ride!

Evilness is one thing, but there must be snacks!

Well,lookee here! isn’t that….?

Don’t mess with Princess Pinky!

All well that ends well. Now let’s have some cuppycakes!!!

Panda On!

Job Growth for Lawyers : The Pinky Defense

11 Replies

I suppose you could say that the reign of King Don the first (and hopefully the last) did spike job growth in one sector of our economy: Lawyers! Hopefully they got high marks in their study of the Constitution, because it’s gonna come in real handy, as certain folks do their best to dismantle it. I think that the lawyers in this country have been getting a real work out. I just hope enough of them are on the side of justice, truth, beauty, and pandas.

It’s gonna be an interesting winter.

Fortunately, we have The Pinky Defense.

Maybe Mommee Mei might have some influence over Pinky…dream on!

Panda On

PS: Thanks all for being patient in waiting for replies to your comments last week. I had a great time at the workshop I assisted with/ took as a student. You’re never too old to learn some new tricks! I definitely learned some great ones form our esteemed teacher, Koo Schadler. Now I am back in the painting and panda central studio, where I belong. Hopefully my newfound skills in painting will give me more time to…draw pandas!

Not even Robert Mueller could fight The Pinky Defense

Lawyers are in the news lately! Indictments are coming down the pipeline! Who will be next? Could it be MITTENS?????? Alas, that one is probably farther down the line. and besides, he will claim it was Crooked Pinky’s fault! She is the puppet of Pootin! (Oh…you haven’t met Pootin yet? I think he may make an appearance soon.) No one can break The Pinky Defense!

No one, I tell you! The Pinky Defense wins every time!

Isn’t that the whole point of being ~~presydent~~ Pinky?

Panda On!

Hope you remembered to turn your clocks…um….oh, just go check your mePhone.

Hey kids! WE’re back with the next chapters of our beloved holiday classic The Wizard of Wu, brought to you courtesy of…well…ME!!! Join Wu, Mr. Toasty, and the mysterious panda who looks an awful lot like Wu’s older brother, not to mention Wu’s faithful companion, Binky the soccer ball!

Got yer popcorn? Don’t be scared, but the scary part is coming up NOW!!!

The wicked cat of the west attacks Mr Toasty

That cat is pure evil!

Who would have thought cuppycakes could be enchanted?

Good witch Bee, the Bear, to the rescue!

The Pinky Defense

9 Replies

Apologies for my absence from the pandasphere, but I have been updating my skills in the fine art realm! Yes, I’ve been taking another class in egg tempera, and while this has nothing to do with pandas, I am learning lots of fine arty stuff! Huzzah! For any of you out there who are also artists, you may know that the technique of egg tempera is an old one, and full of myths and mythology in its history and practice.

The class is taught by the extremely talented Koo Schadler, and if you’ve never heard of her, do take a look at her work; you’ll be glad you did. And not only is she a damn fine painter, she is a very generous human being, both with her knowledge (which is encyclopedic) and her personal warmth. If you are looking to expand your art skills in a supportive, information rich class, you can’t go wrong taking one of her classes.

But now! The Pinky Defense! I know you’ve been waiting!

Would YOU believe this panda?

Panda On!

Okay! Ebbryone have their popcorn? Your blankie to hide under? Okay then! Without further fuss, it’s time for the next installment of….

The Wizard of Wu!!!!!

Mr Wu landas in the cuppycake region of pandyland in this episode of his new adventure

Don’t I know you from somewhere?

Mehitabel would like to register her protest about given the least sympathetic role in this adventure.

Is Pinky casting envious glances at Bee, The Bear’s magical wand?

Xiao Liwu has to journey to see the wizard

Okay, now it’s getting exciting! Scary parts dead ahead!

Mr Wu meets up with someone who looks a lot like his brother, shortly after setting out on his journey

I have a bad feeling about this….

Are you SURE there will be no flying monkeys? And Mr. Toasty is right! Who DOESN’T like bagels!

Tune in again on Sunday for the exciting conclusion of the All pandas Eve story, and next Friday for the conclusion of The Wizard of Wu!

Panda on and pass the candy corn!

Have a fabulous Furry Friday!
