The Poet is the comic strip quietly taking the internet by storm - one unsuspecting new reader at a time - and has been described as being like PEANUTS, but if Linus was an old man and Woodstock had an attitude.
Life Is A Donut is the third collection of The Poet comic strips, and follows its uniquely thoughtful cast of characters: the Poet, the Pigeon, and the Park Bench as they contemplate our silly place in the grand scheme of things, the meaning of poetry, and donuts.
The Poet has a sense of humor about thinking hard and feeling deeply while not apologizing for such outrageous behavior. It's refreshing.
- Hal Hartley, film director
Serene, existential, and self aware, Todd Webb's The Poet is a humorous and ultimately helpful respite from... everything.
- Adam J. Kurtz, author of Things Are What You Make of Them: Life Advice for Creatives
These gently funny comics give a glimpse of a poet making his way in the world, accompanied by a somewhat skeptical bird. The two in combination strike a happy balance between dreaminess and the corporeal world, so that what emerges is an overall sense of love for poetry and its makers - the kind of love that's intimate enough to make space for poking fun. (It also makes space for a talking bench, which is an inarguably good thing.)
- Heather Christle, poet and author of What is Amazing and The Crying Book
Todd Webb has figured out what poetry was missing all these years - PICTURES!
- Derek Drymon, creative director of SpongeBob Squarepants & executive producer of Adventure Time
