Visiting the Winter Quarter's visitor center last year, I learned that the pioneers' covered wagons were often painted in bright, vibrant colors (like the yellow in your gag). This was because those paints held up to the elements better than the dull browns that we assume the wagons were painted in. You know what this all means: this might be your most historically accurate pioneer comic ever!
I've been cartooning since I was a teenager, and have been published in magazines ranging from AASHTO Quarterly to the LDS Church magazines and several other periodicals, trade publications and newsletters.
Feel free to contact me with comments, complaints or questions!
