This week's pick comes from our Manager of Digital Advertising and Customer Service, Morgan: I love Invisible Bread because it takes mundane life and makes it hysterical. I've often found myself in many of the situations portrayed in the comic.

If Garfield spent as much time looking where he was going as he does looking at the audience to shrug, incidents like this could be easily avoided.

But it was the rest of the crowd who learned the biggest lesson that day, as a late-game substitution taught them all that there really isn't that much difference between a pitcher and a belly-itcher.

If you replaced "One Direction" with "N'Sync," I think this might be a perfect representation of my junior high years.

The Sunday funnies aren't always funny -- sometimes they can be sad and terrifying, like this Sunday Buni.

This contest ends on Monday, May 6th at 10am CDT. Six winners will be announced on our blog, Facebook and Twitter at 10:30am CDT that day.
Last month, GoComics began serializing Dan Thompson's series, "Rip Haywire and the Curse of Tangaroa," which reprises the 2011 graphic novel of the same name. A new installment in the saga will be posted on GoComics every Sunday. As Rip editor Reed Jackson advises, "take a peek inside the heart-stoppingly hilarious first few pages of this awesome-flavored, action-comedy blockbuster! No matter how freakishly large your seat is, we guarantee you'll be on the edge of it!
Also in recent GoComics creator news is Ruben "Tom The Dancing Bug" Bolling's video of cartoonists taking a stand against gun violence, which features original work by a score of top-flight cartoonists and narration by no less than Philip Seymour Hoffman and Julianne Moore.
Washington Post's "Comic Riffs" had the scoop in an interview with Bolling last week, which you can check out here.
That's about it for this little mini-post. In closing, enjoy this lovely slice of comic zen from the timeless Jim's Journal.
Take care,
Lucas

I haven't been this emotionally moved by an image since the time I saw a photo of TV's Joy Behar in a limbo contest.
It's been a special couple of weeks here at GoComics HQ, and all the hard work by so many GoComicers has made being recognized on the global scale quite fulfilling.
So congrats to all! Frappuccino(s)* on me!

For the rest of my life, I'm going to call raccoon babies (which are actually called "kits" according to the issue of Ranger Rick I stole from John Glynn's executive bathroom,) rabies.
As in, "I used to feed the rabies living under my floorboards, but I think they must have been allergic to marshmallow Pop-Tarts."
Thanks, The Creeps!
