WHAT
IS DADSVILLE?
Dadsville
is a comic anthology organized around the common thread of fatherhood as
interpreted by a collaboration of artists and writers united in a commitment to
create original comics that don’t suck.
Welcome
to Dadsville, where you’ll delve deep into the paternal past and meet the
quirky fathers of the artist-contributors. Whether they’re dishing out the
wisdom of the ages or scratching themselves in front of the TV, each will give
you a unique insight into what it means to be called “Dear Old Dad.” In the
tradition
of Meathaus, Mome, and Kramers Ergot, Dadsville will hold appeal for readers
who enjoy whimsy, deep thought, empathy, and nonsense.
