by far one of my favorite artists/cartoonists/comic book gods working today is Jeffrey Brown. he’s my pick today for comic of the week. i do actually plan to have my comic out sometime this week (i know, i’m shocked too), but i’d like to get in the habit of posting comics on Mondays, so here is some work from Mr. Brown, since i’m not quite ready yet (and since his work is far superior to mine anyway, you’re actually getting a great deal).

while Jeffrey Brown does not have a “journal comic” to speak of and is much more established and well known than Les and Drew (see previous comic of the week posts) he does work in a journal style. his comics are very autobiographical and the truth of them is sometimes heartbreakingly honest. my favorite of his works is Unlikely, but Clumsy and AEIOU are almost as good and are the companion pieces to Unlikely in his “relationship trilogy”. he also is prolific in his mini-comics and pieces that can be found in collections and anthologies.  if you like what you see here in these two simple panels please check him out at the link below:
