Todd Webb's self-published comic strip collection signed at WonderCon 2023!

From the publisher:

This is the first full-color collection of The Poet comic strips, and follows its uniquely thoughtful cast of characters: the Poet, the Pigeon, and the Park Bench as they contemplate our silly place in the grand scheme of things, the meaning of poetry, and donuts. It's a quiet comic for noisy times, guaranteed to make you chuckle, smile quietly, and/or nod knowingly. The Poet is for you.

"I keep reading The Poet when I 'should be doing something else.'" - Lemony Snicket, author of A Series of Unfortunate Events

"The Poet has a sense of humor about thinking hard and feeling deeply while not apologizing for such outrageous behavior. It's refreshing." - Hal Hartley, film director

"Serene, existential, and self aware, Todd Webb's The Poet is a humorous and ultimately helpful respite from... everything." - Adam J. Kurtz, author of Things Are What You Make of Them: Life Advice for Creatives

"These gently funny comics strike a happy balance between dreaminess and the corporeal world... an inarguably good thing." - Heather Christle, poet and author of What is Amazing

"Todd Webb has figured out what poetry was missing all these years - PICTURES!" - Derek Drymon, executive producer of Adventure Time

"I have been a joy-filled fan of Todd's work on The Poet for as long as I can remember. - Kevin Pollak, actor & comedian

"Poets like poems, and birds like donuts. This Poet and bird share the crumbs of their life with love, and the occasional jab in the ribs." - John Porcellino, cartoonist King-Cat Comics & Stories

"I love The Poet. It reminds me of how we can be delicate and pompous at the same time..." - Tom Hart, cartoonist & founder of The Sequential Artists Workshop

"Webb whittles and peels back layers to find more and more in these spare but vast strips. A man, a bench, a pigeon; THE WORLD. They hang out up the street from Charlie Brown, Thoreau, Bushmiller, and Cage." - The Comics Journal, Best Comics of 2021
