Another collection of a single-panel newspaper strip. (Is it still a "strip" if it's a single-panel? Oh, the philosophical questions of cartooning.)I found this one and Brevity on the discard pile at work about a month ago, and they're the same sort of thing: vaguely surreal post-Far Side cartoons. This one has an odder, scratchier (one might say "less professional," but I think it's at least partially deliberate) drawing style -- something like John Callahan with more shading and control of his hand muscles.
It's not great, it's not bad -- it's just an average cartoon, funny sometimes but not all the time. But it's miles ahead of The Wizard of Id.
