Intelligent Life
About Intelligent Life
Our world is awash in pop culture, and increasingly what we call ldquogeekrdquo culture. Television and movies showcase superheroes and sci-fi/fantasy. Social media and mobile technology have given people new ways to share their fandom and obsessions. And we would argue that even those who love fantasy sports and the intricate details behind the games we follow show a level of engagement and behavior we might define as ldquogeeky.rdquo
Intelligent Life is a comic strip that revolves around a set of characters who very much exist in this world of geek/pop culture, and it gives us a good laugh as we nod knowingly at their antics. The strip follows the personal life, the work life, the hobbies and obsessions of Skip, Gwen, Mike and Barry, and glimpses the mania of our world.
If any of this sounds familiar, donrsquot be surprised ndash this is the modern world we all share. Intelligent Life celebrates the geek in all of us.
