🚀 Introducing FunkyPilot Academy’s New Comic Strips!
Exciting news, aviation fans! We’re taking FunkyPilot Academy to the next level with brand-new comic strips that deliver quick laughs, fun aviation moments, and educational insights—all in bite-sized formats!
✈️ Why Comic Strips?
Creating full-sized comic book issues is an incredible journey, bringing together engaging stories, vibrant characters, and detailed artwork. But we know that waiting for the next big issue can feel like watching the weather radar on a stormy day—it takes time!
That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce FunkyPilot Academy comic strips—short, punchy stories that bring you fun, humor, and aviation insights while we continue crafting our full-length adventures!
🛫 The Confused Plane – Our First Comic Strip!
Our very first FunkyPilot Short, titled The Confused Plane, sets the tone for this exciting new format!
This single-panel comic features Captain Jack inspecting a small airplane that seems to have a personality of its own—a little confused, a little grounded, and definitely ready for a chat! With just one image, we hope to spark a smile and a moment of reflection.
We aim to release these comic strips at least once a week—or more—so there’s always something fresh to enjoy while we continue crafting the larger adventures of FunkyPilot Academy!
🎭 Different Strip Formats – 1, 2, 3, or More Panels!
Not every joke fits in a single panel! That’s why our comic strips will come in various formats, including:
✅ 1-panel gags – Quick, clever, and straight to the punchline.
✅ 2-panel comics – A simple setup and payoff for a short, fun moment.
✅ 3-panel strips – A mini-story, perfect for humor and lessons.
✅ Multi-panel comics – When we need just a little more room for storytelling.
Each strip will capture the spirit of aviation with humor, adventure, and the occasional bit of mischief—just like our full-length comics!

👨✈️ Become a Character in FunkyPilot Academy!
That’s right—you can become a character in our comics! Maybe you’re a bold pilot, a quirky flight instructor, or the air traffic controller with the perfect one-liners. Our only requirement is that you are a reader of FunkyPilot Academy comics, as it wouldn’t make sense for us to create characters of people unfamiliar with our comics — this means you should first purchase a FunkyPilot Academy membership.
Next, tell us about yourself, and we might just create a fun, recurring character inspired by you!
Imagine seeing yourself in the world of FunkyPilot Academy, cracking jokes with Captain Jack, flying with Echo, or even facing off against Sherman the Pig in a battle of wits!
