Tyler Martin is a comic strip veteran who loves creating hilarious & meaningful comics. He spent a large portion of his time in the art room during lunch or taking electives made up of 100% self-created projects. From late 90s advertising he turned to posting internet comics, creating a popular rock band cartoon site and in recent years emerged fully humbled as America’s preeminent self-taught artist/graphic designer. Although he had his share of projects in the beginning, eventually Martin went on to produce platforms and websites for publishing comics rather than actual series.
In time, Martin realized he was missing something. Though he may no longer have been actively creating comics, his head was constantly packed full of ideas that needed an outlet. That realization was the impetus to his return, with “Wally and Osborne,” a strip about a Polar bear that ends up in Antarctica whereas he meets an exuberant penguin but is introduced first – followed by the creation of “Puddlemunch.

Martin went on to say, “Puddlemunch allows me the freedom to just throw out any zany scenario that comes into my head. They offer a brief view of what he could do with storytelling which four panels can bring some lovely characters and twists, all reflecting the humor found within everyday life. Martin is an inspiration to anyone who wants to make a comic book
“‘Puddlemunch it just makes fun of all those convoluted contrivances we attach to our very simple daily lives,” Martin said. It covers animals, a partial cast of characters all using slapstick humor to present somewhat legitimate somber realities in life. “We are silly and we know it. Because if we don’t laugh, we’ll cry.

Some of the recurring characters Puddlemunch created have even become the main players in the show. They were later about to get access to one of the first Facebook messenger bots, which Martin joked that he might name at some point. But the rabbit and bear are such old friends. they first got me started on this bunch of stories in my head, so I think it’s highly appropriate that they should be here with us today He continued: “They’ll keep coming. Wish I was as impetuous and emotional as the rabbit instead of being a square. We all need a bear in our life for some hard truth.

The second character, the bald yellow-shirted guy faces a lot of funny misfortune. So he is entertaining, basically for the bad things that happen to him. As someone who can often feel that I am too passive myself in a world that is saturated with competition, so this poem spoke to me on many levels. Toby, along with his mustached dad is dark in humor – a side of parenting I have witnessed from my childhood and also as a parent. Other characters in the works include an extremist, do what you gotta do raccoon and a hardened-conscience robber.

He is still an artist, this is Tyler Martin. Although he had been on a break from creating comics his return was instant, demonstrating the use of absurd humor to draw attention both oddities and banalities in life. His cartoon comics, notably “Puddlemunch,” illustrate that it’s all good through the eyes of humor.
