Animal Carpentry

Jeremy Eaton’s Animal Carpentry is a singular, one-issue comic from Fantagraphics (1993) that blends anthropomorphic animals with the quiet, meticulous world of woodworking. Eaton serves as both writer and artist, crafting a deadpan, slice-of-life oddity that stands as a curious artifact of the alt-comics era. Its premise—animals engaged in carpentry—is deceptively simple, yet the comic’s charm lies in its earnest, understated execution. A brief, self-contained gem for fans of quirky, creator-driven work.
