About the Artist: Bill Whitehead

His career boasts national syndication, appearances in top newspapers, and awards from comic industry heavyweights. Known for his sharp, relatable humor and an instantly recognizable cartooning style, Whitehead turns daily annoyances into laugh-out-loud moments. Expect expressive characters, classic comic strip layouts, and jokes that land with both wit and warmth. Bill’s signature themes? Social awkwardness, family quirks, workplace woes, and the hilarious absurdity of modern life. No one pokes fun at our world quite like Bill Whitehead!
#1 The E-Z Pass Antics: “Just a Little Joke, Bob!”
Talk about modern mischief! Bob tries to make the toll cameras laugh with a cheeky hand gesture, but as the passenger wisely warns, the tollway authorities probably won’t see the humor. This comic is pure suburban satire—Bill Whitehead perfectly nails that “dad joke” energy in a way that feels both new and timeless.
#2 Volcanic Vibes: “What Was All That Commotion Last Night?”
We all know neighbors who complain about noise, but what if your neighbor is literally a volcano? That’s the twist! It’s the ultimate “geological gossip.” The facial expressions of the tiny islanders are the cherry on top—Whitehead’s genius is making the surreal feel hilariously mundane.
#3 Wild West Betrayal: “Take My Sidekick—Please!”
Who needs enemies with friends like these? In a dusty showdown, a desperate cowboy tries to barter his buddy to the outlaw. It’s a punchy, Henny Youngman-style joke with a western twist. You can practically hear the tumbleweeds groan.
#4 Logistics Laughs: “The Supply Chain Broke Down”
All aboard the supply chain pain train! Whitehead turns news headlines into cartoon gold, with rail workers standing around broken tracks. “They said the supply chain broke down”—the literal take is hilarious, especially if you’ve ever waited for a package (so, all of us).
#5 Canine Wisdom: “The Meaning of Life Is Simple”
Dogs on a mountaintop, pondering existence. One drops a zen bomb: “They give us food. We look cute. The meaning of life is just that simple.” If only all philosophy were this clear—and this adorable.
#6 Caveman Solutions: “Trash, Recycle, Dead”
Want to see recycling, the Stone Age way? Whitehead draws a trio of bins marked Trash, Recycle, and… Dead. The cartoon hits with a perfect mix of morbid and clever, riffing on how ancient problems might have had, um, ‘direct’ solutions.
#7 Identity Crisis: “We’re People, Son”
A dog dad sits his pup down for “the talk”—and insists, “Anyone who tells you you’re a dog is just pulling your leg.” Dog logic never looked so human! It’s a clever subversion that’s equal parts sweet and snarky.
#8 Office Elevator Wars: “We Saw Him First!”
Three packed elevators, all fighting to claim the lone businessman waiting. “We saw him first!”—the world’s weirdest popularity contest. Whitehead’s knack for exaggerating daily struggles makes this a laugh-out-loud, all-too-relatable office gag.
#9 Celebrity Prison Visits: “How I Almost Got Away With It”
Prisoner meet-and-greets? Only in Bill Whitehead’s world! The joke about “meeting the author of ‘How I Almost Got Away With It’” pokes fun at criminal fame, serving up a smart bit of social satire behind the laughs.
#10 Coffee Logic: “Plant-Based Coffee”
“Coffee is made from a plant, so yes, it’s plant-based coffee.” That deadpan delivery is what makes this coffee shop gag a standout—bonus points for the exhausted barista’s expression, perfectly capturing every customer service worker’s inner monologue.
#11 Role Reversal: “Take Your Child to Work Day”
Why should adults have all the fun? A kid driving to work gets ordered by Mom to “take your father with you.” Whitehead’s gift is finding comedy in the familiar, then flipping it completely on its head.
#12 Legal Fairy Tales: “Litigious Bo Peep”
Little Bo Peep isn’t just missing sheep—she’s lawyering up! The sight of her consulting an attorney about breach-of-contract is a hilarious send-up of modern legal culture and the endless quest for “accountability.”
#13 Parental Gaming: “Swear Wordle”
A twist on Wordle for the easily frustrated: “Don’t bother your father, he’s playing Swear Wordle.” Anyone who’s ever raged at a word game will appreciate the accuracy (and the kid’s innocent confusion).
#14 Melting Moments: “Dali Breaks Through Creative Block”
Surrealism meets slapstick as Salvador Dali’s pocket watch melts—not on a canvas, but on the stove. The genius here? Turning highbrow art history into a kitchen disaster, complete with the world’s most bored muse.
#15 Dodging Drop-Ins: “Heading Into a Tunnel!”
When friends pop by unexpectedly, some people make excuses… but only Bill Whitehead’s characters pretend to be in a car driving through a tunnel while sitting on the couch. Comedy gold for introverts everywhere.
#16 Noisy Neighbors: “Meet Darleen and Dave”
Meet the world’s worst upstairs neighbors: Darleen (tap-dancing teacher) and Dave (appliance dropper). Whitehead perfectly exaggerates apartment living pain points with a friendly but horrifying introduction.
#17 Medical Mishaps: “I Cut Myself with a Scalpel”
A surgeon assures his patient, “The good news is I’m going to be OK!” If you like your doctor jokes with a healthy dose of dark comedy, this one’s for you.
#18 Poetic Justice: “Guilty on Every Count”
When justice gets literal, even the court reporter can’t keep up. The phrase “guilty on every count” lands with classic Bill Whitehead wordplay—serving up puns with legal flair.
#19 Castaway Creatives: “Castaway Cartoonists”
Two bedraggled cartoonists on a desert island complain, “Being stranded isn’t funny!” Whitehead turns even artistic misery into a punchline—talk about drawing inspiration from anywhere.
#20 Ancient Architecture: “What Shape Haven’t We Tried Yet?”
Pyramids are so last dynasty. Cartoon Pharaohs are tired of triangles and ready to experiment. This one is for anyone who’s ever had to please an impossible boss—or design something truly unique.
