Ray and Steven are single-celled organisms in the primordial ooze. They're just two buddies trying to make it in a world of various amoeba, algae, bacteria, and microbes. "Soup" is a hunorous look at the origins of life.

One of the nice things about this comic is how the art is taken to a level beyond the typical gag strip. Although the characters are simple (the comic often reminds me of Gary Larson's Farside) they are very nicely rendered in full grayscale glory. Also worth noting are the panels. All the panels are circular, and connected together by thick lines. Not only do the lines guide the reader through what could be a confusing layout, they also make the comic seem to be shaped like a molecule, fitting in nicely with the microscopic theme. The comic is frequently hilarious and always enjoyable, even when it occasionally skews to the sophomoric side of things. I'm looking forward to seeing more! ... read it now!

reminded me of many other comics about being at work with a bunch of idiots.

pretty good art, i really enjoyed the humor though. reminds me of almost every job iv ever had. cant wait to read more. as i said kind of a dilbert feel, but way funnier and being at a photo place is anoriginal touch on a timeless theme of "being at work" well worth reading. ... read it now!

Skully ambles through his semblance of life, looks for love and becomes a rounded character, one gag at a time.

Unlike some of Damian Willcox's other series (Dorkboy; Workin' Jones) Skully is not a continuing story, but a series of single panels featuring the title character, a warm, fuzzy skeleton in a funeral-black suit and a cartoon-red bow tie. Most are gags, a few are sketches, some look like they'd make good tattoos. Even so, an interesting, layered personality for Skully begins to emerge through the cumulative reading. He's a sensitive, good-natured fellow, but with an edge (being, after all, deceased). Deadly but not quite malicious -- There's an innocence, or perhaps obliviousness, about the guy. Skully is a Casper The Friendly Ghost-type who's let the world get him down. Damian Willcox's artwork is especially appealing on this feature, with bold lines and a muted color palette to give a touch of the ol' melancholy. This one is really just getting off the ground, but worth following. I'd like to see Willcox feature Skully in a full-blown story, just to flesh him out a bit (Huh huh, 'flesh him out' -- He's a skeleton, geddit? Oh well--). ... read it now!
