comicskingdom.comOur Mission is to Keep the Comics ComingComics Kingdom2024-02-13 | Every strip starts with a sketch. A gag. A storyboard.
An inkling of an idea, brought to life by a pencil,
some paper (okay, occasionally a tablet and stylus),
and an altogether personal point of view. It's the first
step in a hero’s winding journey—both the
character’s and the creator’s—soon to meet the fans
who will cheer them along.
Comics Kingdom is for those who believe in limitless
creativity, barely contained in a bite of delight. The
ones who must make, against any obstacles,
whether pioneers or next generation, in service of
an art form that nudges us all forward, eliciting
chuckles, catharsis, and connection.
We're a haven for those who absolutely worship
cartoon history and are eager to preserve and
transform. A community for the people who open to
the funnies every week or get the digital scoop any
day.
A place for enthusiasts to support others and
recognize the wonderfully human lessons and
observations depicted through a beloved and all too
rare craft. A platform for artists to breathe new life,
share new experiences, and reach new friends. A
way to come together through a niche that unifies—
one of the lightest ways to deal with heavy stuff.
For those, for us, and all, our mission is to keep
the comics coming.

Beetle takes an overdose of an experimental pep pill. His new found strength almost ruins Sgt. Snorkel and Camp Swampy.
Beetle and his pals are assigned to train the ferocious new Army dogs. To gain their confidence, they don dog costumes and get into the cage with them.
Beetle is sole heir to a ten million dollar estate, and Cosmo shows him how to spend the money. But, after taxes, all that's left is a talkative minah bird.
During war games, Beetle and his buddies are sent to blow up the bridge on the River Y...leaving Zero at headquarters with the remote control of the dynamite.
Bunny's father drives them to a picnic, while Beetle makes the sandwiches in the back seat. A slice of bologna gets loose and files into a motorcycle cop.
Sarge picks Zero and Beetle to help him deliver the statue of General Ruff Rider to the big unvieling. But the ride to Swampy is a little too rough for the Ruff Rider.
Snorkel's platoon is taught underwater demolition. They are to clear away all obstructions from the harbor so Admiral Bilgewater can bring his ship in for an inspection visit.
