40 Brainy And Hilarious Science, History And Pop-Culture Comics From “Wrong Hands” Artist John Atkinson

I can’t believe we’ve never done a comics post of Wrong Hands comics, as it’s one of my personal favorites, but I guess we’re getting to it now. They’re smart comics for smart people.

Hailing from Canada’s diverse creative scene, John Atkinson has carved a unique niche for himself in the world of comic artistry with his acclaimed series, “Wrong Hands”. This engaging series demonstrates not just Atkinson’s fine arts background, but also the nurturing spark ignited during playful drawing sessions with his children, which ultimately steered his journey towards cartooning.

Atkinson’s work is a delightful tapestry woven with threads of classic literature, facets of science and technology, and the inescapable allure of pop culture. He cleverly condenses these vast realms into accessible, bite-sized visual narratives, served with a side of wry humor. His comedic approach, significantly influenced by British comedies like Blackadder, PG Wodehouse, and Monty Python, finds further resonance in the undertones of Charles Schultz’s Peanuts and Gary Larson’s The Far Side. So, prepare for an entrancing voyage as we delve into forty of his best works below.
