Geranium Lake Properties, hollow carotenoid sunset


It's Halloween week and this is the first of three GLP cartoons dedicated to Jack Loki's second favorite holiday. (His favorite holiday is April Fool's Day.) The second Halloween panel will appear on Thursday, the third will appear on Saturday--on the very day of All Saints' Eve. There will be no Sunday cartoon.

Geranium Lake Properties, 100 Perpindicular Hearts


You can also read a poem titled "100 Perpindicular Hearts". I don't know if the poem and the cartoon illustrate each other, but they did happen coincidentally.

Geranium Lake Properties, confound your friends, dismay your enemies


We have not shown a misprint from Newark’s Star-Ledger in a while. Yost really loved the Star-Ledger misprints, and this is one of his favorites. Bottom image is how the world outside New Jersey saw today's GLP panel.

Geranium Lake Properties, when the pied ordinaries of your grief become mute


On the back of this comic, Wm. Yost penciled "Series: Jack Loki translates Shakespeare for horned lizards" and "Phrynosoma platyrhinos or coronatum?" His assistant, Ha Kim Ngoc, says there are more than a dozen panels that belong to the Shakespeare translation series, but she is not sure this panel is one of them. Yost wrote his ideas down on pieces of paper, scraps or envelopes or whatever was handy. He jotted all sorts of things on the backs of his GLP panels, including phone numbers of people he never called, titles of books he never read, and confirmation numbers for bills he paid over the phone.

Geranium Lake Properties, caterpillar sea-life surviving in the bathtub


Another GLP panel that might work as an illustration for a poem ("The Arborist's Wife") from The Wife of History and Other Planetary Characters.
