About the Artist – Max Garcia
Max Garcia is the mastermind behind Sunny Street, a comic series beloved for its sarcastic tone, clever concepts, and laugh-out-loud visual gags. His work frequently touches on pop culture, wordplay, and everyday ironies, often with a dark or absurd twist that fans can’t get enough of. Garcia has gained a loyal following thanks to his knack for single-panel storytelling—no setup needed, just a one-and-done punch of humor.
#1 Get a Job, You Slug.
Snail-on-slug shaming? Welcome to the rough side of shell life. This comic flips homelessness into a gastropod gig economy debate—complete with a cardboard sign. Garcia’s ability to take the mundane and turn it into a mini soap opera is absolutely top-tier.
#2 The Birth Program That Works
In the most hilariously literal take on weight loss, this “before and after” strip delivers a gut-busting twist: the baby was the 8 pounds lost. Who needs a gym membership when childbirth does the trick?
#3 Soccer—The Ultimate Snooze Spor
With a deadpan stare and arms crossed, this teen voices what many think but few admit. The satire here isn’t just about soccer—it’s about sports fandom taken to sleepy extremes.
#4 Cock-A-Doodle-Doome
A rooster unwraps an alarm clock on his birthday, and the existential despair is palpable. Imagine getting a tool of enslavement as a gift. It’s farm-animal irony at its best.
#5 Superhero Retirement Home
Aging superheroes awkwardly suiting up in the locker room only to end up in wheelchairs? That’s some savage comic commentary. Nostalgia meets brutal reality in one glorious panel.
#6 Why We Tie Our Laces
Dark? A bit. Funny? Absolutely. One man’s escalator mishap becomes a parenting lesson. It’s morbidly instructional, like a PSA from the underworld.
#7 Two Quiet
This clever play on words turns numbers into paranoid campers. The sight of “2” lurking behind a tree with a knife is both punny and mildly terrifying. Only Sunny Street could make math this entertaining.
#8 Foxy Regrets
When a female fox laments never having the chance to “eat beaver,” the joke walks a very sharp line—and nails it. Animal instinct meets frustrated domestic life in glorious cartoon form.
#9 Alfred, This Isn’t What I Meant
Batman’s bedtime mobile is made of literal bats. His disappointed expression says it all. This one’s a fun jab at superhero branding—and childhood gift expectations.
#10 Garry’s Last Shift
The animal-run restaurant kitchen faces a grim update: Garry the lamb’s time is up. The expressions on these animal coworkers? Comically tragic.
#11 Not All in One Basket
A chicken learns the hard way why you shouldn’t keep all your eggs together. In panel two, the lesson repeats with a cartoonishly aggressive vengeance. Garcia’s use of idioms gone wrong is hilarious.
#12 Kermit’s Parental Crisis
Amphibian love leads to reptilian spawn—and parental panic. With Miss Piggy cringing and Kermit holding a “Vasectomies for Dummies” book, this one’s a darkly funny family drama in a panel.
#13 Lightbulb Date Night
Two bulbs on a date. One insults the other’s brightness. The punchline: “Watt?” Genius wordplay and painfully familiar dating banter packed into a perfectly lit strip.
#14 Death Brings His Kid to Work
When the Grim Reaper shows up at your door, you brace yourself—but when he’s got a kid in tow? That’s just awkward. Take Your Kid to Work Day, Sunny Street-style.
#15 Delicious Homework
A student took “finish your homework” way too literally. The waiter? Appalled. The diner? Satisfied. Classic Sunny Street absurdity with an intellectual twist.
#16 Horsepital
A horse patient with roller-skates being comforted by a doctor… holding a revolver?! Max Garcia taps into that dark, ridiculous humor vein like no one else.
#17 Sacred Pickle Struggle
The Amazons have conquered mankind—only to be defeated by pickle jar lids. These visual gags evolve beautifully in three escalating panels, ending in skeletal surrender.
#18 Buffalo Wings
Two Native Americans debate the mystery of wings on buffalo—concluding they pair well with blue cheese. It’s deliciously dumb logic, which makes it all the more fun.
#19 Clark’s Selective Super-Hearing
On the moon, Clark Kent is trying to hear a prophecy. On Earth, his wife is yelling about laundry. This strip takes superpowers and turns them into very relatable husband behavior.
#20 Easter Regrets
A scandalous call between a bunny and a chicken brings paternity into question—with decorated eggs as the evidence. It’s the cartoon equivalent of a talk show reveal.
