Description Any mad scientist - and by that, I mean any OTHER mad scientist - will tell you that it's not enough to cackle and prance insanely around the lab. Some lab assistants just don't get the hint.

So when going "Muahaha!" doesn't cut it; when Igor (or Igette) simply won't leave you alone with your mastodon/cuttlefish hybrid, your Dissolvo Ray, or your mind-melting Pscho-Cyclotron, just state the obvious.

Back off. I'm doing SCIENCE.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

As before, recently, this was an idea for a t-shirt at the Retropolis Transit Authority ( [link] ) and couldn't be stopped before it had also become a poster ( [link] ), a coffee mug ( [link] ) and a greeting card ( [link] ). And now, here and at last, an archival print.

Because the motto of my Secret Laboratory is "We waste no part of the animal! Muahahahaha!"

Similar to "I'm not taking drugs...I'm EXPERIMENTING".
Also reminds me of Magnus Pike shouting "SCIENCE" in the Thomas Dolby video 'She blinded me with science'

My kids need this in their rooms (or on the dorm room door, as the case may be.) Raising the next generation of mad scientists here...

Love your art, it is so fun. Especially after I've spent some time looking at the 1965 New York World's Fair website. I remember that future...
