About The Buckets
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.

I know a guy called Kevin who’s been a human statue for years, here in Glasgow.
He kindly gave me permission to feature him in my Oscar & Wild strip. The characters snub him and throw change at a real statue – which is a famous Glasgow landmark!

There’s a movie I liked that came out last year called “The Giant Mechanical Man”

Seen these guys in Honolulu and San Francisco. Weird. Strange. WTF?
Heard that in LA they fight with Superman, Spiderman, and others of that ilk.
Read several of Steven J. Cannells novels about “Hollywood Station” and enjoy the characters therein.

But what’s your THEME, Toby? Can’t have Eddie dressed just the way he is. …. ya gotta have a theme…. Like the Bronze Cowgirl. Or the Silver Statue of Liberty. (saw both on our streets a couple of weekends ago)
