once
again….duckfeathers and confetti fill the skies….

if
you are predisposed to
…..picking on the
President….going over THAT rainbow....
...Julia Roberts getting on your last nerve...
….….and choosing Sondheim over
Lloyd-Weber…..
then
you will be at right home in
a
very festive community
that chronicles the adventures, observations and attitudes of
“buckminster
duck”
-
a just-so-happens-to be-gay duck -
as he adjusts to the trials and tribulations of contemporary life!
long before
“a certain other duck” called himself
QUEER…
“buckminster
duck”
was waddling amongst his assorted adventures and
commentaries
in his previous cartooned-incarnation called
“such
is LIFE!”
“QUACK
CITY!”
takes the concept and popularity of
“such
is LIFE!”
and gives it a rather faaaaaaaaaaabulous urban setting.
amongst a colorful community of ducks,
“QUACK
CITY!”
will sometimes tickle you with a duckfeather
and other times it will be a stiletto right in the forehead.
in
“QUACK
CITY!”
“duck”
and “gay” are synonymous.
as a playful social commentary from a campy perspective,
“buckminster duck”
transcends gay stereotypes,
while exposing himself to the vulnerabilities of
gay
life and LIFE itself!
anywhere from politics…to spirituality…to romance….to
philosophy
….to sex….to Hollywood gossip…..
“QUACK
CITY!”
playfully depicts the
issues of the day
with whimsical and often poignant satire.
along with a new but familiar look of
“buckminster duck”
you will find a cast of others who occasionally provide him angst or
folly.
(see the “duck-bio” page for the crazy cast of
characters)
three
duck-toons
each month commenting upon a
plethora of issues
….some whimsical….ha-quack-ha!!!…
and
others quite poignant….ouch-quack-ouch!!!
come back each month for three new duck-toons
cause who knows what the year will hold.
my personal duck-favorites from last year,
looking back in 2002 on what either
tickled or ruffled buckminster’s
feathers
from Dubya.....Gay Life......to the war on terrorism…to pedophile priests
…back to Dubya again and again…to buckminster's love life
........to Hate Crimes.....to Martha
Stewart....a little more Dubya
….to Saddam.....to our shop-lifting Winona
it was a year that was!!!
a treasure trove of duck-commentaries over the years,
some of which you will recognize and enjoy again,
but this time with a whole new look of
“QUACK
CITY!”
from
archives of….
…GAY…
remember Barney Fag?
…to
SPIRITUALITY…
Shirley MacLaine lives!…many times!
…to
POLITICS…
Monica Lewinsky …
the patron saint of cartoonists
…to
ROMANCE…
brings out the “Karen Carpenter” in me
...to
SEX…
brings out the “Madonna “ in me!!!
…to OZ…
Friends of Dorothy Unite!
...to
HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP…
and YES!!!....Julia Roberts is still on my last nerve!!!
there is a lot here for your enjoyment and contemplation….
quack back
and quack back often.
the horizon looks very bright and magical for
“QUACK
CITY!”
who knows what life events might inspire a
QUACK OR TWO!
so do duck back in frequently to see what
politicially correct and incorrect things you may discover.
but guaranteed ...
duckfeathers and confetti will
continue to fill the sky!!!
