Some of my SpongeBob Comics – Super Suspicion

SpongeBob dressed as Mermaid Man
Here’s a SpongeBob comic book story I did for Nickelodeon Magazine back in ought-two. This was done during the break between the end of SpongeBob’s 3rd season and before production started on the Movie.

It was fun ‘cause I finally had a chance to get back to my comic book roots, and reach a huge audience, too.

I’m not sure why, but I’ve never posted any of my Nick Mag comics before. Oh, wait…I remember why. I was still freelancing for Nickelodeon Magazine and I didn’t wanna make  them mad. But last December the magazine shut its doors, so here they are.

I’m always fond of bookending the opening and closing panels
(or scenes in a cartoon)
A lot of these comics were collected
into book form: Comic Crazy!

  4. Whoa! I actually remember reading this one when it first came out. I always loved the way it was drawn, but I had no idea you drew it Sherm. Beautiful stuff. I think I was about 8 when I saw this by the way back when I was crazy for Nick Mag (I remember the Scene, But Not Heard comics very well. I always liked those too).

  7. No Thank You, for actually helping bring some of the better cartoons to the small screen. The ones I actually find amusing would be quite different in my opinion without you on board. Bravo to you my cartoonist friend! Guess I should actually get a link to Cartoon Snap from my blog. Poof! DONE!

  10. These are rad, Sherm. By posting these, you've separated the SpongeBoys from the SpongeMen!

  11. I remember that one! You and Vince were a good team. Though your own inking (the Hiccup story!) is amazing.

  12. MJ, Oflada & Michael...thnaks for the votes. More coming soon!

    ChrisL: Not to worry...the publisher barely promoted the book at all, so nobody knows it exists

    Duffy: I agree that Vince did a really great job. When I first saw it, I thought I had inked it myself ;)

  14. Sherm, you have been my favorite since day one! Your Spongebob is the most organic -- and I was particularly honored to ink you (no - not in a tattoo way!).
    Pleasure workin' with you, sir! May we do it again!

  15. Thanks Vincent -- it was definitely a pleasure to have your inks on this story -- if it weren't for the credits I would've though I inked it myself :)

  16. Hi Sherm- I tutor an autistic 12 year old and I work on expending his language. He is a huge Spongebob fan and I have used one of your comics in our sessions. I print out your story. He writes about each picture to tell his own version of the story. Then it goes into his own "comic" book.He has gone from 4 word sentences to 10 word sentences over time. Please do write more and post.
    Thank you!
