About THE PIRANHA CLUB Comic Strip


click on each panel above to make it readable



Bad is good.  And good is bad.  I am talking about ratings and books and  soap operas.  On a soap opera the bad ones are the ones that keeps people coming back for more.  You would get bored real quick if everyone was good.

The same goes for comic strips.  You a bad person to stir the pot up - to get things  fired up, so to speak.

Which brings to mind the comic strip THE PIRANHA CLUB by Bud Grace (above).  THE PIRANHA CLUB, according to Wikipedia, is paradoy on THE LIONS CLUB, where people are in the Lions Club for a good cause,  it is just the opposite for The Piranha Club.  Its members are self-centered, greedy, sleazy, and will cheat you in a second for gain, with no remorse about it - and like Piranha, they will eat each other.  No scruples is what I'm trying to say.

The above strips are a not so random sampling.  I had to cast aside 3 because I thought  they might be offensive to some.  

THE PIRANHA CLUB is not carried locally.  I read mine every day online at:
