Gantry Groves: Welcome to Paradise (A Comic Strip Series)
By Michael J. Citak
Welcome to Gantry Groves(TM), the most chaotic tiny home HOA golf course community in Florida-where retirement meets absurdity, rules are optional, and every day is a battle for turf, pride, and the last open parking pad.
Set on Florida's Space Coast in the shadow of rocket launches, Gantry Groves is a dark comedy comic strip series packed with outrageous characters, satirical storytelling, and laugh-out-loud moments that feel just a little too real.
Inside this hilariously brief yet unhinged community, you'll meet:
- Marsha Vane - the iron-fisted HOA president enforcing rules nobody reads
- Bob - a sunburned, territorial resident convinced every empty lot belongs to him
- Kenny - the hustler who can sell you anything... including your own stuff
- Mort & Chad - brothers navigating mud, mayhem, and questionable life choices
- Clive - the over-the-top tour guide who takes everything way too far
- And a rotating cast of misfits, influencers, retirees, and chaos agents
From golf cart disasters and HOA violations to floods, backyard schemes, diner drama, and rocket launches lighting up the sky, every strip delivers a sharp, satirical look at modern life wrapped in a uniquely Floridian brand of humor.
