Ranklechick and His Three Legged Cat

A delightfully oddball series from Slave Labor Graphics, Ranklechick and His Three Legged Cat is the brainchild of writer and co-artist Rosearik Rikki Simons, who crafted its two-issue run alongside artist Tavisha Wolfgarth-Simons. Launching in 2001 and continuing to the present, this offbeat comic follows the surreal adventures of its titular character and his unusual feline companion. Though brief, the series stands as a charming artifact of early-2000s indie comics, showcasing the creators’ whimsical, DIY sensibility.
