"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. The world of childhood depicted in the strip is a timeless, outdoorsy one reminiscent of strips like "Calvin & Hobbes" and "Cul De Sac," both of which Henry cites as influences. Mostly we see the world of the strip through Wallace's eyes, a sleepy East Coast beach town called Snug Harbor where the streets are lined with ice cream shops and the beaches are dotted with rocky tide pools. Readers will be delighted with tales of friendship, discovery, and adventure.

There's Dad, a fisherman, Mom, a gardener, their almost feral young son Sterling, who never met a bug he wouldn't eat, and his older brother Wallace, a rambunctious, imaginative kid big on exploring. Get ready to meet new friends in Book 4 of the beautifully illustrated escapades of Wallace the Brave.

I invested in a small business a few years back, it’s doing pretty good, but it’s sort of given me the freedom to focus on cartooning, without the urgency of making money of the cartoon. At the center of their adventure is Wallace, the adventurous eldest of two brothers. Working with an actual comic strip editor is kinda weird but cool, and surprising -Will There also a bit of struggle between putting your faith in a company for syndication, especially in the web comic era.

The process of developing a comic for syndication- especially the time line and amount of material needed.
