About Off The Mark

Slightly skewed humor and a twisted look at the little things we take for granted.

Mark Parisi's comic panel off the mark hits a bull's eye with slightly skewed humor and a twisted look at the little things we take for granted. It is a world of scheming pets, evil computers and talking plants that puts an ironic, absurd or just plain silly spin on the ordinary occurrences of everyday life. Described by one newspaper editor as "sweet-natured and devilish at the same time," off the mark receives fan mail from readers of all ages. It has twice been nominated for "Best Newspaper Comic Panel" by the National Cartoonists Society.
