"Lots of people say "someday I'm gonna draw comics," but it's rare for people to get down and do it–rarer few are those who stick with it, developing a cast of characters over weeks, months, even years in actual strips at a regular release rate!  Liam Spalding is one of those rare few; Slugs is deliciously modern while paying homage to the best of its comic strip forebears. The characters (who occasionally are aware that they're land-dwelling, shell-less mollusks) have specific and complex personalities (including Billbury!) and feel more like real people than some humans I encounter. Best of all, whether it's a haiku-like punchline in 4 panels, or a meandering metaphysical journey that stretches the bounds of the medium, you really have no idea where Slugs stories will take you next!"
