For Comic Strip Lovers: Kevin & Kell!

Today, I thought I'd spend a little more time promoting my favourite comic strip, the absolutely clever, witty, charming and hilarious KEVIN & KELL. What's it about, you ask? The answer: the dysfunctional relationship between a rabbit and a wolf, and the whackiness that ensues in trying to build a family life together when different species of differing appetites cohabitate under the same roof! There's an official description of the strip below, and you can access the more than 2,500 strips in the arcives of the Offical Website by clicking on the picture right at the bottom of this post. Incidentally, and for future reference, a link is provided in the sidebar on the right. So if you're looking for a great comic strip with great humour, great warmth and great realism in the midst of its improbability, I highly recommend this! Check it out! :)

The Comic Strip

Years ago, Kevin Kindle the rabbit and Kell Dewclaw the wolf met in an online chat room. After falling head over heels for each other, they decided to meet in person. It wasn't until then that they realized they were from separate ends of the food chain. However, the relationship they'd developed online overcame Kevin's instinct for self-preservation, and Kell's heart melted from such a demonstration of trust. Kell was energetic and vivacious, qualities Kevin had found lacking in herbivores. Such a relationship between predator and prey was certainly doomed to fail, but these two opposites were determined to make things work. They eventually married knowing good and well they would be outcasts in their own society.

Along for the ride was Kevin's adopted hedgehog daughter Lindesfarne from his previous marriage and Kell's wolf cub son Rudy from hers. A year later, Kell gave birth to Coney, the canrivorus baby bunny who inherited Kevin's big ears and Kell's meaty appetite.

Other than their taboo marriage, these woodland Bradys are not that unlike any typical American family. Kell works at the corporate headquarters of Herd Thinners Inc., the worlds primary supplier of grocery meat by-products. Kevin runs a local Internet Service Provider called Hare-Link from the basement of their home. Lindesfarne & Rudy both attend Caliban Academy, the local public high school. Rudy goes during the day and Lindesfarne attends at night, being a nocturnal species after all. The world in which they live makes everything we would consider mundane have a unique and humorous spin. It's a place inhabited soley by intelligent animals who drive cars, use computers, pay taxes and yet still cling firmly to their instincts and the circle of life.
