Curse of Rafinesque
Added 2025-10-15 16:00:15 +0000 UTCHere's a special Phables comic I did back in 2006. I love to share every Halloween.
It's the (mostly) true story about a botanist who taught at Transylvania University in Kentucky (the place really exists). When he was caught with the college president's wife, he was ousted from campus. Upon leaving, he placed a curse on the institution, and, supposedly, every seven years, something tragic happens at Transylvania University.
The last "Curse Year", by the way, was 2018, so we're due for the next one...
Hmmmm.
Phables was a weekly comic I did for the Philadelphia Daily News that shared stories about everyday Philadelphians. It was nominated for the Eisner Award in 2007.
