Proving that there is a niche comic out there for everyone, even me, here is a comic about current events in the aeronautics and space industries. And ants. This one takes some time to get used to, but it's worth the effort because it is genuinely funny. For real life reasons which are in themselves hilarious (I won't go into it, just read the author's background, the comic's main character is an ant who works as a commercial pilot, and has otherwise worked a wide variety of jobs all within the industry or flight school. The subject of the bulk of recent comics is the shenanigans of public officials, which (mercifully) the author makes no attempt to draw except as voices behind closed doors. In fact, the best drawing in the comic is of airplanes and rockets. However, if the reader should want to read more comics about ants (and who wouldn't), there are tons and tons of other ant comics by the author in the archives, about four distinguishable independent story lines which imagine a parallel world right beneath our feet in which ants have airports, submarines, starships, and news media. Or if you like, just get a chuckle out of the pomposity of the author himself, as the entire web site is in the third person. He imagines himself as an enemy to blowhards, which is ironic because he seems to be his own worst enemy.
