1. Buffett the Vampire Slayer
At a Margaritaville restaurant, a vampire chokes on jambalaya because — gasp! — it has garlic. Whamond brilliantly mashes up pop culture, wordplay, and food in one silly, satisfying panel. “Buffett the Vampire Slayer”? That pun alone earns this comic a seat at the top.
2. Alexa Is Always Listening… Always
“Alexa, play back what Dave said yesterday at 4:17 PM.” This comic hits home in an age where smart assistants are the new lie detectors. The guy’s panic? Completely justified. Marital justice has never been this hilarious.
3. Catholitic Converter Crisis
When a bishop tells a man his “catholitic converter” is stolen, you know Whamond’s at his punniest. Mixing faith, auto parts, and confusion? That’s a blessed combo for laughs.
4. Cows at the Café
“Phew! No tipping here.” A sigh of relief from cows at a restaurant when tipping’s already included. The cow logic is sound, and the joke is priceless. Whamond’s animal humor always mooo-ves the funny needle.
5. The Silent Crime
A mime gets arrested for having a weapon with a silencer. And one officer drops, “You have the right to remain silent… which goes without saying.” It’s clever, it’s meta, and it’s criminally funny.
6. Coffee Table Addict
“Don’t talk to Frank until he’s had his coffee table.” The visual of a beaver gnawing down a full wooden table like it’s morning espresso? Comedy perfection. Caffeine has never looked so crunchy.
7.Ozempic Fish
A fish skeleton looks at a thin fish and asks: “Ozempic?” with the theme song in bubbles. A hilarious roast of diet culture — even underwater. This comic swims in satire.
8. Second Opinion? More Like Second Guess
She Googled her symptoms and now thinks she has halitosis or chlamydia. The doctor’s expression says it all: this is what happens when WebMD meets worst-case scenario thinking. Whamond nails modern hypochondria.
9. A Grave Mistake
Mark with a C,” he said. And now the tombstone reads “Cark.” This is a masterclass in taking a simple misunderstanding and making it permanently hilarious.
10. No Rhyme, No Reason, Just Darren

“I have no explanation.”
No explanation. No rhyme. No reason. Darren is our new spirit animal for life’s ‘meh’ moments.
11. Superhero Mistaken for Villain
He’s standing outside a bank rubbing his hands — not plotting a heist, just sanitizing. And boom — tackled. This comic is the perfect pandemic-era superhero confusion. You almost feel bad laughing… almost.
12. Roadkill Dining Dilemma
“There’s no blood, Jimmy won’t eat it.”
“Just put ketchup on it!”
Vultures discussing dinner plans like picky toddlers. It’s grotesque, it’s absurd, and it’s so Whamond.
13. Holy Architecture!
“I always wondered why those doors were shaped like that,” says the priest as the pope walks through a perfectly hat-shaped door. The visual symmetry is too good. Holy hilarity, Batman!
14. Déjà Voodoo
Man gets poked in the neck and says, “I think I’ve had this pain before!” Meanwhile, a voodoo doll version of him gets another jab. The timing, the pun, the voodoo—perfection.
15. Middle-Ages Crisis
“Because I’m having a Middle-Ages crisis, Irene!” says a guy dressed as a knight. Modern men buy cars. This guy bought armor. Whamond redefines the midlife crisis, and we’re here for it.
16. Dog’s Internet Temptation
Dog sees an online ad that says: “Hot squirrels in your area.” If you know dog behavior, you know this is dog Tinder. Whamond’s digital age animal humor never misses.
17. Mind Over Madder
An anger management class with a sign that says “Mind over madder.” The guy walking in already looks ticked off. The pun is sharp, the irony sharper.
18. Oyster Bunny’s Stinky Secret
The lesser-known cousin of the Easter Bunny hides shellfish instead of eggs. It’s gross, it’s bizarre, and it’s exactly the kind of fishy twist Whamond loves to throw in.
