Thank you SOOOOOO much for all of the follows, likes, and feedback, gang! That’s always the biggest part of what keeps me cranking out so much rampant silliness! And, for those of you who fairly recently began following our adventures here on our website, we reintroduce the stars of the strip, beginning, natch, with THEContinue reading “And NOW…YOUR Portsport Crammers!”

Pre-game Shmoes
We at FLEA FLICKERS figured we wouldn’t slow the roll we were on lampooning the world of pro football broadcasting, this time parodying one of the more popular pre-game studio shows! And, while this might not just yet be a page right out of history, it IS a page right out of our second book,Continue reading “Pre-game Shmoes”
Pro football has three conferences: the American Conference, the National Conference, and the Press Conference
Our last post about broadcast booth hijinks got us to thinking, gang: there’s always a ton of speculation, prognostication, anticipation, and other “ations” when big-name pro football players become free agents, and even when top-tier coaches are up for grabs, too, but very recently even on-air broadcasters have emerged as ripe for the picking forContinue reading “Pro football has three conferences: the American Conference, the National Conference, and the Press Conference”
Announcer prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Ah, the prototypical three-man announcer booth: the seasoned broadcast veteran, the former player that may or may not ever get the hang of the whole color commentary thing, and the former coach who, for an announcer, makes a great former coach. Combine ingredients, vigorously blend, chill at room temperature, and voila! The three of themContinue reading “Announcer prevention is worth a pound of cure.”
You had me at “Zeke The Rhino.”
Another one of our “Sunday-sized” strips, gang, this one answering the question “What if we took a famous movie and FLEA FLICKERS-ma-tized it?” We used to love MAD magazine TV show and movie parodies in our impressionable childhood years, and some of that influence can be seen in strips like this one. Truth to tell,Continue reading “You had me at “Zeke The Rhino.””
Paint-by-numbness
Since we’ve got another silent strip here, gang, we’ll let the picture tell the story, though we can’t resist the moral: “Those who are as dumb as oxen get to be as strong as them, too.”
There will be an answer…
SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! (For some reason, I’ve always wanted to say that!) If you haven’t gotten the chance to try your hand at our Zeke maze, then you may not want to see the one unique solution as shown above. And, thanks to a suggestion by an old classmate, I’ve updated the time limitsContinue reading “There will be an answer…”
Mother, maze I?
2023 has been a pretty wild year o’ dabbling for us here at FLEA FLICKERS BY DAN BROWN. I’ve loved mazes all my life, and learned to draw my own (ahemcoughahem) decades ago…and so I thought, “Da heck, why not try to incorporate some Flea Flickersness into maze art?” And who knows? Maybe this wouldContinue reading “Mother, maze I?”
Carmen Sandiego? Heck, where in the world is anybody?!
The influence of television situation comedies is inescapable in much of the FLEA FLICKERS BY DAN BROWN silliness. Exhibit A: we took an adult-character-only strip and added kids for extra family-oriented-ness. Example 2: Cassie, who’s as smart as a whip, and Zeke, who’s as intellectual as an empty bag of doorknobs, produce the aforementioned childrenContinue reading “Carmen Sandiego? Heck, where in the world is anybody?!”
Laughter Math
Inspired by our last post, which in turn was inspired by the cover of our second book, we present to you an entirely brand-new strip, polished off just moments ago, featuring three of Our Big Four being addled by Zeke’s attempts at intellectuality….again. Sure, Our Main Rhino demonstrates no discernable capacity to learn…but if Jay,Continue reading “Laughter Math”
