Welcome


Welcome to Angry Liberal Chrissi Comics. A blog devoted to my rudimentary cartoons--mostly all created with MS Paint while passing unendurably slow days in the South.

About me:
An expat from the South, I have lived in the New York/New Jersey area for over 7 years, where I studied Acting and continued on to pursue my dreams as an actor, writer and artist. I grew up in a small town in rural Arkansas, where I still come to visit family from time to time, and where I initially acquired my bristling distaste of conservativism--both in politics and in religion. I've been what some would say, a "raging liberal," most of my life--or at least as far back as I can remember. I grew up longing for what I considered as "the Utopia of the North"--only to discover that idiots pretty much exist everywhere, and no one region has a monopoly on them. That said, it's less likely to encounter gun-wielding, bible-toting, pro-life, pro-death-penalty, anti-socialist hypocrites walking down a New York street than it is in just about any small town south of the Mason Dixon line.
Now, when I come "down south" to visit, I am reminded why I fled it "like a bat outta hell" - as they say down here. This blog is my dedication to the poor misplaced "Yankee Liberals" out there--wherever you may be.
