Welcome to Johnny's World

Johnny Optimism is a darkly comic look at a boy who tries to look on the bright side because "things could always get worse." And they do get worse, time after time.

Johnny interacts with a highly unusual collection of medical professionals, bureaucrats, mean kids, fellow sufferers, a manic helper monkey and more - getting real comfort only from his faithful dog, Lance.

Together they're trying to cope with Life...just like the rest of us.

DISCLAIMER
The thoughts and opinions expressed in the cartoons and commentary section represent the personal opinions of the author, which are clearly neither expert nor particularly healthy. These opinions are intended to be entertaining, humorous, or thought-provoking, but are in no way intended to do harm. Johnny Optimism should not be considered a source of credible medical information and, in fact, if you treat it as such you're out of your freaking mind.

Opinions expressed in the Comments section are the sole responsibility of the people who post those comments, and the creator of Johnny Optimism accepts no responsibility for the content of those comments. Additionally, by submitting comments you agree to subject your opinions to peer review and remarks, which can be a lot like getting a colonoscopy. Furthermore, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the owners of this website, its staff, and its subsidiaries. By submitting e-mails and comments to this site you agree to the above policy. The owners of this website also reserve the right to reveal your identity (or any other related information collected on this service) in the event of a formal complaint or legal action arising from any situation caused by your use of this forum.

Material from this site may not be collected, printed, or sold in any form without specific permission from the author - who is clearly a pretty sick cookie, and not anyone you'd want to mess with.

One final note: Johnny Optimism is in no way intended to mock, ridicule, or diminish persons with real medical problems and challenges. Rather this cartoon is about the problems, insecurities, and indignities that all of us must face - whether visible to others or not - and trying to find a way to laugh in the face of our own adversities.
