I’ve switched to the ‘half-sheet’ format that is common graphic novels. Now that I’ve largely abandoned social media posting (to avoid AI theft) I’m free to use a format better suited to story-telling!

]]><![CDATA[All About A Dog's Breakfast]]>https://www.phdtoons.com/p/all-about-a-dogs-breakfasthttps://www.phdtoons.com/p/all-about-a-dogs-breakfastSun, 28 Jul 2024 22:20:38 GMTA Dog’s Breakfast is a weekly cartoon in the classic single-panel format. Like its primary inspiration — Gary Larson’s “The Far Side” cartoons — ADB features a broad array of humans and animals. What binds it together, besides thick viscous bile, is a dark, musty sort of humor; they kind one normally treats with bleach.

ADB is where I explore things that make me laugh that might be too dark or confusing for my other work, which is often geared toward young readers. The title is a common British slang phrase, which was best defined by Mike Wine of the New York Times:

"A dog's breakfast is any kind of smorgasbord prepared, in haste or at random, from life's castoffs.”

As one of life’s castoffs myself, I like using ADB to celebrate the joy of being unmoored, even when we’re clearly headed towards the breakers.
