Eek and Meek One More Time

Howie Schneider’s Eek and Meek One More Time (1970–present) collects the newspaper strip misadventures of a hapless everyman and his cynical turtle, originally launched by Paperback Library as a single-issue comic. Schneider’s signature deadpan humor and expressive linework define this offbeat duo’s quiet, absurdist commentary on modern life. Though brief in its comic-book form, the collection preserves the strip’s enduring charm as a gentle satire of suburban frustration.
