The first installment of my Tragic School Bus series. A 48-page riso printed Magic School Bus parody comics printed in bright red & fluorescent pink ink on two tones of paper. While still educational, this story focuses a bit more on the child endangerment aspects of magical learning lol.
Synopsis: 50 years ago, Georgie Peretti is carelessly left behind after his 4th grade class takes a trip inside the body of a sick classmate. Forgotten and alone, he must learn to survive in this strange, microscopic world with only the memory of what life used to be. Stranded! is an educational romp through the human circulatory system and cautionary tale of reckless endangerment on magical school field trips!

The sequel to Stranded and the 2nd installment in a planned set of 3 magic school bus parody comics. Another 48-pager, this time printed in teal & yellow.
The story picks up after Georgie's mysterious disappearance and follows his class's next field trip into the prehistoric land of dinosaurs! Georgie's classmate, Thomas Fink, is a nervous boy who learns to face his fears (for better or for worse) in the hazardous domain of "gentle" giants. An educational romp through the late Cretaceous period and cautionary tale of reckless endangerment on magical school field trips!
2024
Tragic School Bus is an ongoing series of Magic School Bus parody comics that—while still educational—focus a bit more on the child endangerment aspects of magical learning.
The first comic, Stranded!, explores the human circulatory system and its sequel story, Extinct! takes the remaining members of the class back in time to the Late Cretaceous period for a hazardous Dino adventure. A final installment meant to conclude the series, Voided!, is still in the works! I’m hoping to print it later this year and debut the full set together by 2026.
The first two installments in my ongoing Tragic School Bus comic series.
