Bizarro (comic strip)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Bizarro cartoon from May 2006
Bizarro is a single panel cartoon written and drawn by cartoonist Dan Piraro. It started in 1985.
Bizarro gives an eccentric, exaggerated and, as the name implies, bizarre look at our everyday life. The situations are surreal yet plausible. Many make reference to themselves or other cartoon characters. Most Bizarro cartoons include a firecracker, an eyeball, a pie, a rabbit, an alien in a spaceship, the abbreviation "K2" and/or an upside down bird hidden somewhere in the cartoon.
The strip and its creator have been recognized with several awards, including the National Cartoonist Society Newspaper Panel Cartoon Award for 1999, 2000, and 2001, and a nomination for their Reuben Award for 2002.
