Fleep
June 27th, 2005
Fleep is a fantastic little comic strip. Writer/artist Jason Shiga explains the basic concept:
It’s about a boy who wakes up in a telephone booth which has been mysteriously sealed in an envelope of concrete. Using only the contents of his pockets (two pens, a paperback novel, three coins and 20 ft of unwaxed dental floss) our hero must fashion and execute an escape plan before he runs out of oxygen. Believe it or not, I try to end each strip on a cliffhanger which is very challenging considering most of the 42 strips take place inside this one phone booth.
I can understand why the newspaper that originally published the strip decided it wasn’t for them after just 28 episodes, but I’m glad that the web gives Shiga the chance to let us all see the full strip online.
