About Glimbit
Hi, I’m Eric M. Smith from Flint, Michigan, currently living in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Glimbit comics are silly webcomics, tightly focused on the specific subject matters of history, psychology, relationships, religion, absurdity, science fiction, spookiness, food, life, the universe and everything.
Actually, I don’t want to pin down the subject matter just yet, but these comics really are silly.
I add at least one new comic each week.
I’m happy you’re here and I hope you feel comfortable providing comments on my comics. There are currently some Facebook plugins on each comic for comments and likes. You’ll see them.
Get in touch with me these ways:
About “Glimbit”
“Glimbit” is a word I made up, meaning a little light with no glare, a concept from James Thurber, but, for me, more from my comparative religions teacher at Flushing High School, Jack Dean.
Making train motions, Mr. Dean would chug into the class at 8:05 AM. Already playing on his record player was either “Sgt. Pepper’s” or The Doors. In his hand, a cup of coffee. Smiling, but not over-committed to any specific feeling of happiness. I think he was content. He made his way to the window. The blinds were usually closed. He stopped at the first window and began to twist the rod that opened the blinds. He would say: “I’m going to open these blinds just enough to let the light in, but keep the glare out.” He said that a couple more times as he continued to open the blinds.
