Halo and Sprocket

Kerry Callen’s Halo and Sprocket (2002–2003, Slave Labor Graphics) is a gentle, four-issue comedy about an angel named Halo and a robot named Sprocket who share an apartment, navigating everyday life with a mix of celestial grace and mechanical logic. Callen, the sole writer and artist, crafts a quiet, character-driven strip that stands out for its warm, offbeat humor and charmingly simple art. It’s a small, lovely artifact of early-2000s indie comics, treasured for its sincere, low-key charm.
