Some comics find their spark from the funny things kids say. Some are born from the creator’s love for drawing. Some are meant as humorous ways to provide current event commentary.
But how many are born out of a father’s devotion to finding unique, creative ways to express the love between a parent and child?
Probably not many. And that’s what makes the birth story of online comic “Mister & Me” so special.
Initially Platt intended to keep the comics between him and his son, perhaps as another bound book like the book of poetry. He soon realized though that the comic needed more eyes to fully hit its stride.
