About this site

There’s a lot of hype around the recession, often in all the wrong places. With this strip, I hope to burst some of those bubbles and help us laugh at ourselves a little bit.

If you want to know more about who's behind this, have a look at my slightly-outdated website.

Tell us your story

I get most of my inspiration from real life, so chances are, if you send me a story or observation about the recession, I can turn it into a comic strip.

No promises though :)
