Stupido

Tom Cheney’s Stupido (1996–1998, Ide & Strek) is a 17-issue series of gag-driven, single-page cartoons that revel in absurd, deadpan humor. Cheney, both writer and artist throughout the run, delivers a steady stream of surreal premises and hapless characters, each strip a tiny, self-contained world of comic frustration. The series stands as a pure, unadorned showcase for Cheney’s distinctive voice—a cult favorite for fans of minimalist, offbeat cartooning.
