Hi!
My name is John Sutton. I'm a webcomic artist from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
About six years ago, although I'm not a scientist (or even closely related to any scientific field), I started drawing comics about a bungling scientist and his robot sidekick. After pestering my coworkers for weeks with my latest drawings, they suggested that I start posting them online.
After six years, a huge learning curve, and a LOT of self-doubts, I really feel like these comics have come a long way. What I've posted below is some of the funniest comics from the last few years, but if you'd like to see all 550+ comics feel free to check out my website or my social media.
I hope you enjoy!

If You're Wondering ... Yes, I Just Got An Instant Pot. No, I Haven't Put My Phone In It Yet, But I Kinda Want To Now
I honestly don't understand the hype surrounding the Instant Pot. I know people that swear by this thing & think it's the greatest kitchen invention ever. It's just a trendy pressure cooker. Pressure cookers have been around since the 40's.
Man, That Is A Big Potato
I thought nervousness was meant to make people *lose* their appetites.
