I should explain what you're about to read.
City Mouse is a cartoon character I created a few years ago, when I briefly lived in Columbus, Ohio. He was the star of my strip City Mouse Goes West. He started out as an avatar of myself, as I wrote about small town life and how it compared to a previous lifetime of big city life. He evolved into his own character over time. He's still me, kind of, but at the same time he's also become a unique character unto himself, if that makes any sense. Collie the Columbus Cow is his pal. I have no control over what she does at all.
I haven't regularly worked on any new City Mouse strips since I moved back to New York, but I thought it might be fun to pull him and Collie out of limbo and create a new strip for them, and this seemed like a good way to introduce them to a new audience. I hope you like it.
