Art holds a mirror up to Nature. The Buckets come along, turn the mirror on Art and say, “Look how goofy you’re acting. Now get to work, Art. Your kids need an Xbox 360.”
The Buckets comic strip isn’t a parody of family life. Parodies are filled with hearts and rainbows or enraged tirades and dramatic confrontation. The Buckets, though? Nope. Real life, baby. It’s funny because it’s on a page and not in your house at the moment. Next week, when it’s happening to you, you’ll thank us for reminding you that it’s supposed to be funny.
Greg Cravens looks in the mirror and see not himself, but all of us. And then he draws up the silly, grand, goofy, thrilling, utterly human things we do and calls it The Buckets.

Stopping to think before acting seems to be one of the hardest things for a kid to learn
Must be, I know a lot of adults who never seemed to learn

The silly thing is- I’ve tried and tried to teach my kids this, but my first instinct is the same as theirs. Get that tick off and fling it!

For all of you who like the history of hand-lettered cartoons and censorship- For many long years,the word ‘Flick’ was disallowed in comics. Hand lettering it in all-capitals caused an issue in shape recognition, and ‘Flick’ would then resemble a word that no one wanted on a comics page, fearing the ‘seduction of the innocents.’
