Heaven and St.Peter cartoon


Actually, he's liable to show up anywhere.

Department of Education cartoon


And sometimes he just hangs around the university.

Biology lab microscope cartoon


And here he is in the biology lab, or I should say microbiology lab, with his microscope.  You get an idea of the kind of guy he is.

Psychiatrist cartoon


Sometimes Bloomenkraft is a psychiatrist, in keeping with his reputation as a Renaissance man.  Also, I seem to have a lot of psychiatrist gags here on my desk.

Invent the wheel cartoon


This strip introduces Professor Ursula, Bloomenkraft's assistant and sometimes foil.  Just imagine a grown-up Little Lulu working for Benjamin Franklin.


First Post — Mad Scientist Cartoon


Hi, and welcome to the Bloomenkraft blog.  Dr. Bloomenkraft is a generic scientist — chemist, physicist, astronomer, biologist, even a physician sometimes.  He's an attempt at syndication that hasn't gotten off the ground.  Anyhow, this is the first sample.  I'll try to add them fairly regularly.  Comments are welcome.  Oh, you can click on the drawings to see them full size.
