*Stripped is available on both Canadian and American
Netflix*
Hey everybody, I have a historic first for the blog today.
I’m going to talk a little bit about a documentary!
It’s called Stripped, and
it focuses on all of the major newspaper comic strips, how they started, the
death of newspapers, and how web comics are carrying on the tradition.
There are a lot of great things I could say about this
Kickstarter project, but like the Sunday comics, I’m going to keep this post
short and sweet.
I think whether you’re into comics or not, you probably
picked up the newspaper as a kid and went straight to the comics section. I
read a ton of Calvin and Hobbes back in the day, and Stripped actually managed
to get the very private creator, Bill Waterson, to talk about his creative
process.

On top of that, they speak with the creators of Penny Arcade,
Questionable Content, The Adventures of Dr. McNinja, Hark! A Vagrant, Garfield,
Beetle Bailey, Cathy, Family Circus, and many more.
I can’t say I’m a fan of every comic they delve into, but
the artists behind them are really inspiring, and they reminded me why I fell in
love with comics in the first place. If you want to have a good laugh and learn more about the
comics industry, I highly recommend you check out Stripped.
