THE FAR SIDE
OF THE FOREST
To launch Wild Moose Canadian Whiskey and Dry we created a series of single-panel comics showing what a moose really gets up to in the wild. Closely based on my own drawings, these were something of a passion project for me.

As a lifelong fan of The Far Side and a perennial doodler, it was a joy to write and sketch these comics before handing them off to a professional. All those hours wasted during school finally pay off professionally.
