About the Artist Tom Wilson & Tom Wilson II
The unmistakable style behind NEW HUMOR COMICS is courtesy of Tom Wilson, later joined by his son Tom Wilson II. The original Ziggy cartoonist, Tom Wilson, launched Ziggy in 1971, winning over readers with his round-headed everyman’s hilarious misadventures. Over the decades, the strip has been featured in hundreds of newspapers, earned a National Cartoonists Society award, and even inspired books and TV specials. Signature themes include life’s little ironies, tech confusion, and that uncrushable optimism, all told through clean, expressive artwork and instantly recognizable characters. With Tom II at the helm, Ziggy’s style remains fresh, funny, and totally timeless.
#1 Out of This World Laughs: “They’re Still Walkin’ Around Carrying Those Clubs!”
Ever wonder what aliens think of our golf obsession? In this witty panel, two extraterrestrials judge earthlings (ahem, Ziggy) for evolving absolutely zero percent—at least, judging by our continued devotion to golf clubs. This comic nails the “humans are weird” angle, and the punchline lands perfectly with anyone who’s ever flubbed a drive at the local course. Uplifting takeaway? If you’re going to be stuck in the evolutionary past, you might as well bring your clubs.

#2 Tourist Class Trouble: “You’re Required to Wear One of THESE!”
Flying tourist class? The only real requirement is questionable fashion. Here, Ziggy is handed a garish Hawaiian shirt by a gleeful airline employee, because apparently, there’s a dress code for suffering. The facial expressions sell it—Ziggy’s resigned confusion, the agent’s chipper authority. The universal pain of air travel gets the Ziggy treatment, and honestly, we all feel seen.

#3 The Shrinking Stars: “TVs Are Bigger, Movie Stars Are Smaller!”
Is it nostalgia, or did everything just look better on tiny screens? Ziggy prefers the days when TVs were modest and movie stars were, well, larger than life. This meta moment skewers our super-sized screens and snack-sized celebrities. The couch potato wisdom? Sometimes bigger isn’t always better… unless it’s the popcorn.

#4 Garden Gags: “Less Flowers; More Carrots!!”
Bunnies as gardening consultants? Only in NEW HUMOR COMICS. Ziggy gets a hot tip from some furry “experts”: forget the posies—plant more carrots! With a side-eye from the local wildlife and Ziggy’s perpetual befuddlement, this strip is a root vegetable lover’s dream. Your garden, your rules… just watch out for unsolicited lagomorph opinions.

#5 TV Warnings: “Intended For Mature Audiences… But Looks Like We’re Stuck With You!”
When the TV insults you directly, you know it’s been a long week. This panel captures Ziggy catching some accidental shade from his television, which seems less than thrilled about its audience. If you’ve ever felt called out by a smart device (or even a not-so-smart one), you’ll relate. Ouch, but make it funny.

#6 Lapdog Over Laptop: “Choosing Contentment Over Stress”
Some life choices are easy: adorable dog vs. stressful laptop? Ziggy’s got it right. This wholesome strip is a reminder to unplug, unwind, and snuggle something fluffy instead of doom-scrolling. Bonus points if your lapdog is actually a cat, but hey, we won’t judge.

#7 Photo Album Wisdom: “Memories Are Daily Gifts”
A rare sentimental gem, this comic sees Ziggy cherishing old photos with his loyal pooch. The message? Every day’s memory is a gift to your future self. Short, sweet, and surprisingly deep. Keep this one handy for your next motivational moment.

#8 Fishing for Laughs: “My Mother-in-Law Is Down Here… And She’s Always Hungry!”
Mother-in-law jokes: still a classic. Ziggy chats up the fish with a playful jab at his mother-in-law’s appetite. It’s harmless fun, the kind that gets a knowing chuckle from anyone who’s ever endured family fishing trips or, well, family.

#9 Invisible Fence Fiasco: “About That Invisible Fence You Sold Me?”
Mime trouble! After buying an “invisible fence,” Ziggy is left with a couple of escape artists performing in his yard. The visual punchline, with panicked mimes and a very unconvinced dog, is an instant classic for anyone who’s ever bought a product that definitely didn’t do what it promised.

#10 Grand Opening Gloom: “Bankruptcy Sale!”
If you’ve ever seen a “Grand Opening” sign and immediately sensed doom, you’ll relate. Ziggy stumbles upon a storefront that’s skipping straight to the bankruptcy sale. It’s a masterclass in economic humor: blink and you’ll miss it, just like the shop’s profits.

#11 Diner Drama: “How About a Quickie?”
This playful panel lands a double entendre with a diner twist. Ziggy’s innocent lunch order leads to the waitress’s deadpan correction: “It’s pronounced quiche!” The strip balances cheeky humor with family-friendly charm—just enough sass to keep you grinning.

#12 Loveseat Logic: “Free Loveseat (Never Used)”
Ziggy’s yard sign promises a “free loveseat (never used)”—a visual joke that’s equal parts clever and a little too real. Who among us hasn’t bought furniture for a love life that never materialized? It’s bittersweet and brilliant, all at once.

#13 Crystal Ball Comeback: “You Are Just Not In It!!”
A fortune teller delivers the harshest psychic reading ever: Ziggy’s future is fine, but he’s not in it. Savage, snarky, and so, so funny—this strip shows that sometimes, the best punchlines come from unexpected places (and people who don’t even believe in crystal balls).

#14 Frequent Flyer Fiasco: “Flights Delayed or Cancelled”
Modern travel in a nutshell. Ziggy finally earns frequent flyer status—right as every single flight gets delayed or cancelled. The exasperated look on Ziggy’s face is all of us, and the flight board feels a little too real. Frequent flyers: we salute your suffering.

#15 Toys Go Vintage: “Just Wait Till You See Them on Antiques Roadshow!”
Feeling old yet? Ziggy laments seeing his childhood toys labeled as “vintage,” only for a friend to rub it in: wait until they show up on Antiques Roadshow! This is peak self-deprecating humor, perfect for anyone who’s ever said, “they don’t make ’em like they used to.”

#16 Tech Support: “I’ve Dumbed It Down for You!!”
If you’ve ever felt personally attacked by a “smart” device, you’ll appreciate this one. After struggling with his TV, Ziggy’s repair guy announces, “I’ve dumbed it down for you!” Sometimes, technology just needs to take it down a notch—and so do we.

#17 Midlife Crisis: “Too Old to Enjoy My Midlife Crisis!”
Ziggy chats with a spry centenarian who laments living too long to enjoy his own midlife crisis. It’s a sharp, witty look at aging, packed into a single bubble. Bonus points for anyone over 50 (or 100) who still feels young at heart.

#18 Bird of Recession: “I’m the Yellow-Bellied Sapsucker of Recession!”
Forget the bluebird of happiness—Ziggy’s got the sapsucker of recession. In true NEW HUMOR COMICS fashion, this strip spins economic anxiety into feathered, relatable comedy. The struggle is real… and apparently, has wings.

#19 Duck Dating: “Don’t Bring the Garlic Bread Crumbs— I’m Bringin’ a Date!”
Sometimes love means changing your plans—especially if you’re a duck. Ziggy gets schooled by a lovebird (okay, a duck) who wants a little less garlic for his big night. Only in the comics, folks.

#20 Personality Quiz Zinger: “Let Me Know If It Says You’ve Got One!!”
Ziggy’s taking an online personality test when his parrot cuts in with a savage line: “Let me know if it says you’ve got one!” Roasted by your own pet? The internet dreams of this kind of energy.
