Welcome to the Doghouse

Another short, short mini. I think I picked this one up at the comic shop after FLUKE, I think. Not that I wouldn’t have gotten in ordinarily, but this was after the show and I was already really broke. Anyway, it’s OK. Not great, but not bad either. It’s the story of a little girl who gets blamed when the family dog ruins a wig that her mother owns. The mother insists that if she is going to blame the dog, they’re going to have to treat her like one. It’s over before you know it, but the man can certainly draw a funny dog (that’s what the thing in the lower right hand corner is, in case you couldn’t tell). Send him, I don’t know, $1, if you’re interested at 475 Greenwood Dr. Athens, GA 30606.

You’re Not the Boss of Me

Jon was kind enough to send me a few more of his comics after he saw my last review, and they were certainly better than the first one. He told me that the previous one I reviewed was the first one that he did, so that explains a little bit. The other two comics will probably get up here one of these days, but they’re called Peckerhead and The Blow Up in case you want to ask for them by name. This one is about two little girls agreeing to boss each other around. One of them gets to boss the other around for a day in return for being bossed around for the next 20 years. A cute little story about kids, which is kind of hard to come by. The art still has a tiny ways to go, as he doesn’t seem to know what he wants in some cases with the background, but it’s improving with each issue (judging by the dates, that is). You could do a lot worse for yourself that to buy a few of these, that’s for sure…
