I'm a copy editor, cartoonist and graphic artist for Patch. I was the Deputy Sports Editor of the Daily Southtown in its heyday, helping the Southtown sports section achieve national recognition, before becoming the Design Director for the Southtown and Star newspapers.

As a freelance cartoonist, I've written and drawn cartoons for a number of greeting card companies — including Hallmark, Oatmeal Studios, Gallant Greetings and It Takes Two — as well as for magazines such as Reader's Digest, newspapers and a variety of websites.

My Captain Scratchy website is updated regularly with new cartoons. My portfolio website is Chuck Ink.
