Boondocks

Let me introduce you to the best cartoon strip in America. I actually discovered it through the new TV series that's been developed from it, but I know Adam's had a feed for it on his website for a long time but the name sort of put me off. Boondocks means out in the country (as far as I understand it) so it doesn't really sum up the awesome cultural and political commentary that you get in the show. You may have to live in America to appreciate some of it, but I still recommend it.


Boondocks

You probably noticed that it's also written from a Black American point of view, which IMHO is something not heard enough around these parts. Considering how certain aspects of recent history are glossed over as 'civil rights history' and swept under the rug in the US, the more Boondocks the better.

Incidentally, the TV version is extra cool because it borrows its styling from Anime, and even has some really cool fighting scenes that are up there with what you'd see in Ghost in the Shell or Samurai Champloo (couldn't resist name-dropping those)!
