About Bad Tree


I work as art director for Landscape Communications Inc. We produce 3 magazines Landscape Architect, Landscape Contractor and Landscape Superintendent.

Bad tree was created for a feature article for the Landscape Contractor magazine. The article was on ‘How to identify Bad Trees’. I drew a quick image for the opening of the article and when the publisher saw the article, he wanted Bad Tree on the cover. Look below for the original image.

We all started kidding around about making this a comic strip. So in 2003 Bad Tree Comic strip was born. I originally started writing the comic strip with contractors in mind, but later started incorporating other material.

I am currently working on some strips to send in order to get the strip syndicated. Now that the web site is up, I am hoping to get some more exposure.

So I hope you enjoy the comics.  —  Jerry Short
