Comic Strip Review: Bleeker the Rechargeable Dog

Yo! Here is a new comic strip to hit the web in the last few months, Bleeker: the Rechargeable Dog by cartoonist Jonathan Mahood. Starring the dog Bleeker and his kid, Skip. Bleeker is today's do-all electronic gadget - email, digital camera, daily planner, printer, GPS and more.

It's a good strip, well drawn and very enjoyable. I don't think the humor is all that... yet. This is the kinda strip where the humor is gonna come from the characters and it'll take some time for them to develop. It's a new strip here, people. The current jokes are mostly about what Bleeker can or can't do as a robotic dog. It is situation-driven, not character-driven which is typical of new comics. Given time, I think we'll see the potential. There have been some good ones so far. So keep readin' it and give it a solid chance!
