Fun Site of the Weekend: Lackadaisy

St. Louis in the '20s. Bootleggers. Swells in top hats. Flappers with tails. And ears. No, not fox stoles--real ears and real tails.

This is a story of a St. Louis occupied entirely by cats.

Tracy J. Butler's Lackadaisy is a gorgeously illustrated net comic telling the story of Miss Maisy, the elegant owner of the Little Daisy Cafe. At least that's what's on the first floor; in the subterranean cave beneath the cafe is the swank speakeasy Lackadaisy. Butler's artwork is stupendous. The characters practically leap off the page. A fun, fun story, and I can't wait for the next installment. And this is from someone who generally speaking doesn't care for "funny animal" comix.
