Meredith Gran’s Octopus Pie comic puts current newspaper strips to shame with its fun style and fantastic expressions. Her writing is good enough to avoid the typical “wacky cast of characters” pitfalls and her art is strong enough to keep the pages varied and engaging. The characters are rich and their experiences run the gamut from goofy to emotional in a way that always rings true.
The time lapse videos of her digital drawing process (which has since evolved, but is wonderful regardless) are a fascinating bonus.
