Comic Cats #18: Catly

Owly looks simple on the outside- it's a cute comic series for kids created by Andy Runton that is (mostly) wordless. The more you look at it, however, the more impressive it gets. How DO you express complex ideas without resorting to words? How do you even express a relatively simple idea, like 'would you play baseball with me', without ASKING? If you want to find out, all of the old Free Comic Book Day Owly books are up online for free on Owly's site. Interesting coincidence: Andy Runton draws Owly as other people's characters for fun, which I didn't know until after I drew Owly as a cat.
