About the series
A warm, off-kilter meditation on fatherhood and suburban ennui, Hey Mister ran for eight issues from Top Shelf between 1997 and 2001. The series follows the quiet, surreal adventures of a stay-at-home dad navigating the oddities of everyday life with his young son, blending gentle humor with a melancholic, slice-of-life tone. Most associated with the singular vision of creator Chris Oliveros, it stands as a quietly influential work that helped define Top Shelf's early reputation for thoughtful, humanist comics.
