Daisy Owl <\/a>is a comic that appears to\u00a0have been abandoned by its creator back in 2010. It covers the somewhat strange lives of an Owl, his two adopted children, and a random local bear. It has a storyline, which is a plus for me, and has a dry sort of humour that would run perfectly well with the regular comics in the newspaper – a little dry and a touch sophisticated. It’s a pity that it’s been left alone, as there was still plenty to be done with the storyline.<\/p>\n

The author is still around, according to his Facebook page<\/a>, but I didn’t dig too deeply to work out what his current projects are.<\/p>\n

This is a bite-sized comic to read in its unfinished form, and if you’re looking for something short that doesn’t require much brain power to read, this could be for you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
