Mark O'Hare

If you are a comic strip fan, and you've never checked out Mark O'Hare's work, Citizen Dog, please do yourself a favor and go pick up his books. You can get them at Amazon, and they're only about 10 bucks each.

Citizen Dog is everything I would create in a comic strip, if I had the talent to do so. From the amazing brush work (I'll be posting some of my latest inking attempts with a brush later this week), to the wonderful character expressions, to the really charming writing, "Citizen Dog" has it all.

Mark hasn't done the strip in years, and has since gone on to work on Spongebob Squarepants and Shrek, but his strip still stands as one of my all-time favorites, right up there with Calvin and Hobbes and Bloom County.



If you missed the link above, you can read Citizen Dog in limited form over on the Ucomics site by clicking here.

Certainly worth your time.
