'My Cage' is a Manga-influenced comic strip from King Features Syndicate to be launched May 6th (Sundays) and May 7th (Daily) of 2007.
Check us out here!
'My Cage' is about Norman, a young 20-something platypus who wanted to be a world famous writer, but has found himself stuck in a crappy middle-management job that pays the bills but is less than fulfilling.
Luckily he has a sweet girlfriend, lovable pet amoeba, and a few oddball co-workers to help him get through it all.
Can Norm escape impending mediocrity? How will he and his co-workers amuse themselves through the tedium of each 8 hour work day? Isn't it annoying when people write in hyperbole? (Answers: maybe, various ways, and yes)
Plus, check out (and vote) for Ed and Melissa's newest comic 'Dracula vs Santa' at www.zudacomics.com :'Dracula vs. Santa' is the second collaboration by 'My Cage' comic strip co-creators Melissa DeJesus and Ed Power.
In it, Dracula decides he wants the North Pole, with it's 6 months of complete darkness, as his home. Only one thing stands in his way: Santa Claus!!!
