BubbaMuski. This professional comedian/artistic director from Chicago has an eclectic sense of humor - to say the least. His Amish Technology series is a comical twist of how they interpret modern day techno-gadgets from flying saucers to the xbox.

It's hard to believe but comics aren't only about telling jokes. BubbaMuski puts a creative spin in his Checkers' series that almost send you off the board like it does his characters! If cyborgs are your thing, check out Bubba's Pixtonator. One question seems to remain - is he more human than machine?
