More from RobCat
Now that Summer has just about arrived (in the Northern Hemisphere), I thought I'd post a pair of comic-styled gags revolving around a municipal swimming pool, in which my bobcat character is partially in charge of.
When I'd originally published this first strip in the APAzine "Rowrbrazzle" (back in 2006), nobody really got the joke, because it was presented in black and white - in spite of the fact that I'd whitened out the zebra's stripes and the leopard's spots (among other things).
So, to emphasize the overuse of chlorine, I've added the necessary colors to anything that hasn't been in the pool (including Rob). As for this unfortunate foursome, the only colors I'd given them were pink for their tongues and red for their eyes (partially from swimming in that water, but mostly from anger).
Watch for my other municipal pool gag, later this month...

I've seen a lot of swimming pool gags with whitened characters (from too much chlorine) in the past, but I'd felt that this gag needed appropriate characters whose distinguished markings (zebra stripes, leopard spots, striped skunk tail, etc.) could easily be erased (for the same reason). 'Rob' certainly doesn't want to see his maintenance crew (or himself) on the receiving end of this unruly mob. Anyway, thanks for the positive feedback, Garr!
The original idea was for 'Rob' to get a complaint from the bear alone. The bobcat would respond: "Oh, a few chemicals shouldn't hurt a tough old polar bear like yourself...", to which the ursine would retort, "Polar bear?! I'm a brown grizzly, you idiot!" Angrily, the white bear would then drop his bathing trunks, and 'moon' the bobcat with his big brown butt! I might still do that gag in the near future...
