Mexikid Stories by Pedro Martin for January 20, 2021

Aw.

Did that make you want to draw for Zap Comics, Pedro? ;<)

I learned to hate electric fences the day i was painting a wood fence that was right tight to the electric fence. i lost track of how many times i got shocked.

I didn’t take up drawing until after college but I carried a sketchpad literally everywhere and got pretty good. My youngest brother used to draw parodies of the Pogo comic strip when he was very small. My mother discouraged him; she told him it was plagiarism. As far as I know, he never drew again. Please encourage the young. (Lovely horse, by the way)

ouch

I hope she was impressed by the macho display of grabbing the electric fence.

Poor Pedro! Haven’t you ever seen real electric fencing before? Oops, don’t look at Natalie, that’s a real electric fence behind you…too late!
