I DIG DUG is an insanely hilarious comic created by the insanenly hilarious Douglas Weller. I DIG DUG first saw print in "Tne Lantern", The Ohio State University daily newspaper, from 1999-2001. IDD also saw print in "The Hometown Connection", Marysville, Ohio's weekly newspaper from 2006-2009. Currently, IDD is on hiatus while I concentrate on "Lost on Earth" which I'm designing as a web-comic. Syndication, action figures, cartoons, and a live action movie deal can't be too far behind.

"BREAK!"
In all seriousness...sometimes shopping is like a football huddle. Carrie and I shop the day after Thanksgiving (Black Friday) every year...usually with Matt and his wife. We spend weeks in advance going over ads and who's selling what at what price, and which store will price match and where to go at 5am, and how early to get there, and what early birds are the best...you get the point, right? As Carrie and I begin formualting our 'plan' for this year's Black Friday, I must have been watching a Browns game. Well...it was on...the Browns haven't given me much to watch this year, but that's another story. And so, I began to liken the shopping plans to the football huddle which gave me this great idea for a comic.
Additionally, I added the idea of splitting up the mall because when Carrie and I frist got married, this is how we shopped for each other. We'd each make our list, travel to one of the local malls, split the mall in half, and each spend a few hours in each half shopping for the other. Two ideas combined into one comic. GENIUS!
