Hunter Biden There's No Whisk I'm Unwilling to Take
Cartoon courtesy of Kirk Mueller.

Hunter Biden and his dad, President Joe Biden are in the news again. This time about a mysterious baggy of cocaine found in a secure part of the White House. It seems like there’s no end in sight for the Biden family and their scandals. More humor from Kirk to lighten your day.

The Maverick Observer launched in February 2020 to hold our politicians and businesses accountable. Our cartoons do just that with a sprinkle of humor and just enough sass to open our eyes to what’s going on around us.

    As a 17-year-old senior at Wm. J. Palmer High School, Kirk sold one of the first cartoons he ever drew to SKI Magazine. Even though he tried, and tried and tried again, he never sold another cartoon to any magazine again—ever! What’s worse: the ski cartoon was never published. He tried his hand at editorial cartooning by securing an internship at the Boulder Daily Camera. His editorial cartoons have appeared in the Lamar Tri-State Daily News, the Pikes Peak Journal, the Cheyenne Edition, the Colorado Springs Sun and the Colorado Springs Independent. Kirk submitted over a dozen concepts for comic strips. This involved drawing 24 to 42 daily and Sunday comic strips and mailing them off to newspaper syndications for their consideration. Kirk draws over 15 original greeting cards annually for friends and family. Kirk’s cartooning process has evolved from pen and ink drawings on Bristol board to an Apple Pencil and Procreate app on an iPad Pro. While there are no longer physical originals, this app provides the platform for diverse drawing styles. Kirk also dabbles in painting with watercolors and acrylic paints. Kirk has supported his cartooning avocation through a variety of jobs and entrepreneurial ventures, including grocery stores, restaurants, pizzerias and his own sub shop, culminating—so far—in a 32 year career as a self-employed tilesetter. Some of his former sandwich customers at the USAFA became tile customers and some of his customers are now Maverick Observer.
