Fleep Comic by Jason Shiga

Posted by Alex in Cartoon & Comic on April 15, 2008 at 1:11 pm


Jason Shiga’s 2001 comic "Fleep" is about a boy who wakes up in a telephone booth that has been mysteriously encased in concrete. With only the content of his pockets (two pens, a paperback novel, three coins and 20 feet of unwaxed dental floss), our hero has to fashion an escape plan before he runs out of oxygen ….

Fleep is a geeky fun comic, featuring an exciting use of math, and with a dark twist at the end. Check it out: Link – Thanks sparge!

    That was quite possibly the strangest comic I've ever read. I loved it, but I would love to know how he knows everything and just figures things out without the comic explaining. Also, I wish that they would have slowed the ending down to where it made more sense.

    I love this comic even if it makes me want to carry around a backpack filled with tools.

    I would highly suggest "meanwhile" on this guys site also. Be warned it will consume several hours of your life.
    Oh and thanks Alex, I spent the better part of an hour last night looking for this comic, post faster next time. ;P

    Loved it. Let's try to find more things like this. Kinda makes me want to learn how to draw... or think of cool story lines.

    Skimmed it. Too much thinking for a comic.

    dang, talk about doing your research. This was really cool though. I thought it was really sad though.

    Very well written, I enjoyed that! The art wasn't really my taste but it worked in the context of this story. A thumbs up from me!
