Although the Dr Sheep and the Aardvark website is currently displaying re-runs, my new webcomic, Girls in Space, updates twice weekly. Girls in Space is an exciting adventure about spacegirls! May the fun be with you!
I could hardly believe my eyes when I checked back on this site last week and discovered that the story of Dr Sheep and the Aardvark had played through to the end for a second time. So, here we go again. Stand by and I will reschedule the strips again for 2010 so that new readers can enjoy the tale of the sensible sheep and his aardvark friend.
After concluding Dr Sheep and the Aardvark in January 2009, I had quite an eventful year. My book Silly Beggar came out in May and I promoted it with a number of television, radio and personal appearances, as well as a good few newspaper articles about the book and the concept. Towards the end of the summer I started an experimental comic called The Cat Comic. It’s quite silly and it tastes of cat.
So what can you expect next year? 2009 is almost over and I’m thrilled to announce that I intend to start 2010 with a brand new project. Yes folks, my new comic is on the launchpad, counting down ready to blast off at the start of 2010. More details to follow soon.
Thanks for reading Dr Sheep and the Aardvark once again. Now, just stick a memory pod to your head, wipe the story from your mind and watch it again for the first time!
Edit: The strips have now been rescheduled to display one-a-day from 12 January 2010. The full archive will not be taken down so readers can still read the whole story whenever they want.
I’m thrilled to announce my new webcomic: The Cat Comic
It’s a thrice weekly comic featuring all manner of bizarre, colourful cats and kittens. Each update is a single panel of silliness introducing a new cat and their outlook on life.
The style of the strip is very different to Dr Sheep and the Aardvark but the humour is along the same lines, so if you like the ol’ sheep and ‘vark, you may well enjoy the cats.
In addition to the comic, there’s also a thrice weekly blog post about cats. I’ve tried to make it a hub for all sorts of kitty goodness!

Dr Sheep and the Aardvark is a webcomic which ran from April 2007 to January 2009. It tells a complete story about an Aardvark with amnesia lost in a land of sheep, and the doctor who helps him regain his memories. The site is currently re-running the story (Mondays to Fridays), but if you would like to read the story in its entirety, the complete archives still exist. The story starts here. Why not use the newsfeed to keep up to date with it?
It is also available in print form thanks to a trilogy of comics, imaginatively titled: Comic 1, Comic 2 and Comic 3.
Comic 3 concludes the story of Dr Sheep and the Aardvark. After a year without memories, suddenly the Aardvark remembers everything. This issue begins with the Aardvark remembering his past.
Comprising all the comics from July 2008 to the final strip, plus four pages of story intros and outros and a “What happened next?” feature revealing what begame of our main characters. In total, 28 colour pages.
This completes the trilogy of comics telling the tale of the amnesiac aardvark and his adventures in a town of sheep. Along with comics 1 and 2, this makes a handsome set! As it has been created by an independent comic artist, Comic 3 is not available through your usual comic outlets and is only available from Florida-based printer Indyplanet via their website. Your order will be printed in Florida and shipped directly to you.
Comic 2 continues the story of the aardvark who fell out of the sky and woke up with complete amnesia in a land of sheep. In the second part of the story a police inspector hunts the Aardvark.
Featuring all the comics from this one to this one, plus a bonus strip not available on the site, the four-page Christmas Special, four pages of story intros and outros, a handful of mocked up spoof movie posters and more! In total 32 pages of fun, fun, fun!! The perfect companion to Comic 1, although equally enjoyable by itself! Comic 2 is not available in your local comic store, barber or butcher. It is only available from Indyplanet, a printer based in Florida. Your order will be printed and shipped to you directly from them.
