20 Hilarious Loose Parts Comics That Nail Everyday Humor

Loose Parts Comics are a surreal, sharply crafted playground of one-panel perfection. And this right here is a cartoon review celebrating 20 of the most side-splitting, head-tilting, and hilariously bizarre gems by the one and only Dave Blazek.

In this comic review roundup, we’re diving deep into the punchline-packed world of Loose Parts — where logic takes a backseat and the absurd is always riding shotgun. These cartoons are quirky, clever, and sometimes even philosophical. They’re the perfect antidote to a boring scroll.

Dave Blazek is the genius behind Loose Parts Comics, a syndicated single-panel cartoon that’s been charming readers for decades. With a background in advertising and stand-up comedy, Blazek brings a fresh mix of visual simplicity and verbal precision to each cartoon. His work has appeared in The Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, and hundreds of other papers nationwide.

#1 The Green Light Disaster

In this riotously clever cartoon, the mayor regretfully addresses the consequences of a traffic light promo where all lights were turned green — yes, at once. The absurdity of a PR stunt gone wrong is delightfully amplified by the calm chaos behind the podium. Blazek skewers bureaucracy with a perfectly-timed punchline that makes you laugh and wince at the same time.

#2 Bagpipes and Blood Pressure

A burly Scottish doctor reads off blood pressure results — but instead of numbers, it’s musical notes in D minor. Blazek’s visual pun turns a standard medical checkup into a hilarious bagpipe jam session. Only Loose Parts could make cardiology and Celtic instruments collide so brilliantly.

#3 Mime Prison Visitation Rights

This cartoon nails the silent drama of mime life, even in jail. A visiting wife laments the figurative “glass wall” between them — while her mime husband pretends there’s literally one. The meta-humor and visual setup are pure Blazek: layered, smart, and giggle-worthy.

#4 Emotional Walls, Brick by Brick

This clever strip features a literal wall being built by a disengaged partner mid-session. It’s therapy humor taken to physical extremes. The absurdity of it makes the message hit even harder — and funnier.

#5 The Turin Sales Pitch

At the “Turin Shroud Company,” a nervous salesman tries to pitch cloths that are definitely not historical artifacts. It’s a brilliant jab at sales jargon, blind faith, and the age-old art of winging it. The deadpan delivery sells it perfectly.

#6 The Pity Party Store

This cartoon pokes fun at our emotional crutches in the form of a store dedicated to pity parties. Wine in every aisle? Sounds about right. It’s retail therapy, Blazek-style — sad, hilarious, and weirdly relatable.

#7 Déjà Vu in the Matrix

This panel features three identical repair booths, each offering “Glitch in the Matrix Repair” for a dollar. The sheer repetition is the joke — and it nails that unsettling, funny feeling of being caught in an absurd loop. Meta and marvelous.

#8 Table for Tall

With a giraffe as a dinner guest, the zebra asks the waiter to tape acacia leaves to the ceiling. The comic serves up a visual gag with restaurant realism — and leaves us chuckling at just how far some folks (or animals) will go for a good date.

#9 Groundcows, the Suburban Menace

What happens when cows burrow like gophers? You get “groundcows,” of course. This delightfully ridiculous take on backyard pests brings a whole new level of “what if?” humor — and it’s as absurd as it is memorable.

#10 Caveman Car Envy

A caveman admires a stone wheel adorned with a slab of leather, declaring it “leather interior.” The joke is brilliantly dumb in the best way — poking fun at materialism and auto culture through a Flintstones lens.

#11 Golf Course Fine Print

At Loophole Valley Golf Club, a player hilariously uses the card’s fine print to adjust his score from 104 to 83. It’s a cheeky nod to bureaucracy and sportsmanship — or lack thereof. Blazek drives this one home like a comedy pro.

#12 Orca-Level Intelligence

Eskimos observe that orcas are luring people with “Swim Out for a Free Tour” signs. It’s both ridiculous and smart — a commentary on evolution and entrapment dressed as arctic banter. Absolutely killer (pun intended).

#13 Staff Infection, Literally

Stick-figure hospital staff receive news of a “staff infection” — which turns out to be a literal staff. The gag is so simple, yet so clever. It’s pun-ishment we actually enjoy.

#14 The Hairball Conversation

This comic parodies how far pet people go to justify feline quirks. One couple redefines hairballs as something practically divine. It’s that niche pet-owner humor that’s just exaggerated enough to be spot-on.

#15 Lab Mice with Taste

When researchers build a rooftop deck for their lab mice, it’s less about data and more about luxury. This is what happens when your scientists watch too many home renovation shows. Delightfully nerdy and absurd.

#16 Dating Advice from a Bowling Ball

Bowling pins and a ball sit in a living room, discussing romantic mismatches. The play on bowling terms and dating tropes is hysterically deadpan. Relationship humor meets sports metaphors — and sticks the landing.

#17 Junkmail Soup and Sad Recipes

A man proudly credits an app for creating a meal using everything in the kitchen — including junkmail. “Capers and junkmail soup” is both gross and gold. A foodie nightmare, delightfully plated.

#18 Family Restaurant Problems

A peaceful dinner gets upended by — yep — a group of flesh-eating fish at the next table. Just another family-style dining dilemma. Blazek’s twisted restaurant humor bites hard and leaves a mark.

#19 Inkjet Squid Scams

A man gets upsold on a squid… only to find out the ink cartridges are the real expense. This might be the best sea-creature/electronics mash-up joke you’ll ever see. Smart, salty, and ink-redible.

#20 Death, Poetry, and Brutal Honesty

During a TV show called “Poetry Talk,” Death politely dunks on an aspiring poet. It’s bleak, hilarious, and full of sharp irony. Who knew the Grim Reaper was a fan of literary critique?

Final Thoughts

Loose Parts Comics by Dave Blazek are the perfect mix of offbeat wit, cultural commentary, and off-the-wall scenarios that make you snort-laugh unexpectedly. From therapy gags to prehistoric upgrades, each panel is a masterclass in the art of saying a lot with a little.
