About the Artist Dan Walsh
Dan Walsh is a cartoonist with a knack for pushing boundaries using single-panel illustrations that pack more punch than a soap opera plot twist. Known for his signature blend of sharp wit, offbeat observations, and unfiltered commentary on everyday life, Walsh has carved a niche in the realm of twisted cartoons. His work often dances with the absurd, the ironic, and sometimes the grimly relatable.
#1 Goldilocks Has Had Enough.
Walsh gives a fairytale twist to modern relationship woes. Mama Bear’s sass, body language, and deadpan delivery make this one a spicy start to the collection.
#2 Smoke Signals Gone Wild.
The setup is classic. The execution? Flawlessly ridiculous. A punchline delivered via smoke signals? Genius-level gag work.
#3 Reverend Fish.
Leave it to Dan to anthropomorphize underwater religious etiquette. A clever nudge at symbolism and social niceties, fish-style.
#4 Trapped in Time.
A visual pun that literally buries the golfer inside an hourglass. Time flies—or drags—when you’re in a bunker.
#5 Peter’s Cousin Is Frying.
This spoof on Peter Pan’s cousin “Frying Pan” is so absurd it’s brilliant. Walsh flips childhood fantasy on its greasy, sizzling head.
#6 Daycare Reunion Drama.
Only Dan Walsh would imagine toddlers gossiping like jaded adults. Hilariously premature reunion catch-up.
#7 Cold Reception.
A polar bear at the doctor’s office brings literal chills. Walsh knows how to turn a clinical visit into comedy gold.
#8 Morning Affirmations Gone Wrong.
Mirror talk never looked more tired, but fabulously so. Walsh captures New Year energy in its most sarcastic form.
#9 Customer Service at the Afterlife.
Life’s a complaint, and so is the afterlife in this sharply dressed gag. The expressions alone are priceless.
#10 Even Nostradamus Didn’t See It Coming.
The irony is deadly—and hilarious. A perfect combo of historical reference and relationship drama.
#11 Prehistoric Fireworks.
Caveman entertainment takes center stage. Nothing says 4th of July like flaming torches and enthusiastic grunts.
#12 Autonomous Abandonment.
Tech woes hit a whole new level of betrayal. If cars are getting smarter, they’re also getting sassier.
#13 Heartless Humor.
When a Tin Man and an IRS agent walk into a bar… Dan mines irony and bureaucracy in one swoop.
#14 Vultures on Standby.
Retirement naps and death’s proximity get a visual twist. Walsh nails the balance of grim and goofy.
#15 Get Off My Cloud!
Yes, it’s a tech joke. And a Rolling Stones reference. And a perfect jab at office entitlement.
#16 The Prodigal Appliance.
Religion meets retail returns. This gag’s clever twist lands with that Walsh-brand eyebrow raise.
#17 Mort Misunderstood the Invite.
The horror. The hilarity. Walsh pulls no punches with festive cringe.
#18 Hook Problems.
Pirate puns and golf lessons? Sign us up. This is peak absurdity, and it’s beautifully on par.
#19 Walter’s Eulogy… or Urology?
Too much information at the worst moment possible. This funeral humor will have you laughing through the tears.
#20 Crow vs Penguin Time.
It’s delivery-time expectations meets flightless bird humor. Weird, wild, and wonderfully Walsh.
In Summary
Dan Walsh doesn’t just draw cartoons—he orchestrates little symphonies of sarcasm and surprises. This collection of twisted dark humor proves that with the right twist, even the darkest moments can be laugh-out-loud hilarious.
