Ride Into The Sun

Hi from Arizona, ya’ll! Our state is pretty famous for gorgeous sunsets so I’m not showing that here. Instead, you get a motorcycle ride into the sunrise (also gorgeous). Bounce along this 60 second loop as the sun comes up between Newman Peak (left) and Picacho Peak (right). This is unfiltered footage; the colors are real! Unmute and go full screen for the best experience.
Picacho Peak is a state park famous for its civil war history and springtime wildflower blooms. It’s easily accessible from Interstate 10. There’s hiking trails and camping for tents and RVs. I’ve never personally camped there because the Hungry Knife HQ is only 15 miles from this location.

None Of These Raccoons Are Named Rocket.

I started drawing violent raccoons sometime around 2008. Animals doing human stuff is funny. Raccoons are funny animals. So, raccoons behaving like little criminals is DOUBLE funny, right? Ooh, I thought I was really clever. I was unaware of the Marvel comic books, Guardians Of The Galaxy. A few years later (2014), I was introduced to Rocket The Raccoon while watching the first Guardians Of The Galaxy movie. WTF? I’m like, “they stole my deviant raccoon character concept!” And my friend goes, “this movie is based on a comic from the 1990’s, dumbass.” Dang.
So, Rocket is the OG raccoon and these jokers are unintentional copycats (copycoons?). I haven’t drawn any new raccoon characters since viewing that first Guardians Of The Galaxy movie. I subsequently watched both sequels and I’m a big fan of all 3 films and Rocket the raccoon. Good idea, Marvel Comics.

We Can See Forever. Guy Sparger, 2017.

In 2017 I drew this spider-baby picture (actual title, We Can See Forever) for no good reason other than to get freaky for a while. The spider-baby has that little stickman who’s some sort of Hell-ghoul. The hell-ghoul loves intravenous drug abuse but can’t shoot-up by itself due to some recent life altering surgeries. Fortunately, the spider-baby is a sympathetic leading character and being part spider, also good at injecting things. Unfortunately, everything looks pretty crazy when you have that many eyes in your head, so spider-baby totally sucks at hitting a vein. Thankfully, the hell-ghoul is from Hell and really doesn’t give a fuck as long as the dope goes in.

The message is clear; you can still have a good party even when things aren’t perfect.

Let’s Do The Time Warp, Again.

Here’s four drawings from a really old Guy Sparger sketchbook. These are all from the art school years; Maryland Institute College Of Art, Baltimore 1987-1990.

Flash forward to 2023, things seem to remain on the rails of the same crazy train. Ain’t that somethin’?

New Blog. First Post. Nothing Serious.

Touch And Go. Graphic by Guy Sparger. Hungry Knife new blog.

We decided to add a new blog to our website. It’s going to be a surprise since we don’t really have a plan for this.

The idea for this blog emerged once we realized no one here likes social media. We have accounts on several social media sites, but they’ve sat (mostly) dormant for years. Oddly enough, we enjoy sharing photos and videos, etc. We also like the idea of chronicling our activities. Just not on corporate social media platforms. I guess we’ll see what develops.

Check back whenever for total randomness.
