The January 19, 2019 Off The Mark panel by Mark Parisi.
Three Newburyport pets have jumped from their three-dimensional, everyday world into a two-dimensional drawing that will print Saturday in newspapers across the globe in the international cartoon “Off the Mark,” created by Gloucester resident Mark Parisi.
Suzanne Cap of Newburyport and her family were thrilled to be the winners of a contest to have their pets drawn in an “Off the Mark” comic – which appears on page 13 of Saturday’s edition of Gloucester Daily Times. A few months ago, Cap had the winning bid on a silent auction item at the Merrimack River Feline Rescue Society’s annual “Fur Ball Gala.” Parisi donated the item to have a local pet featured in a drawing he would design and bring to life.
A Gloucester Times article tells the story behind the panel.
