Copper


One of the few online comics to really win my heart is 'Copper' an intermitently published one-pager about a boy and his dog, and their low key adventures, alternately philosophical and surreal.

Not in graphic style, but somehow in the way the story flows, it's reminiscent of Little Nemo in Slumberland, the great newspaper comic of the early decades of the 20th century - and that's rather high praise.
