Doc Rat – onward and forward

Doc Rat – onward and forward published on

Well, my good people, ConFurgence 2018, here in Melbourne Australia, was an excellent convention. It was good to see such a great turnout and such a spread of ages. 

Thank you for sitting comfortably through the Rat Pause slideshow, in my absence. Now, well get back to the story. Soon, there’ll be the judging of the caption competition and an competition picture.

In the meantime, please enjoy a picture of Ben and Daniella, dressed as pirates. And see if you can see the joke in the flag.

Oh, and I will be at FurDU at Surfer’s Paradise, Gold Coast, Queensland, from 4th to 6th May.

A brief pause

A brief pause published on

The regular strips of Doc Rat are going to take a pause for a bit – for three weeks, to be precise. Various commitments have taken precedence over my drawing board time, the most important of which is my part in the running of ConFurgence 2018, from 23rd to 25th February. The principal guest of honour will be the wonderful artist, photographer and animator, Joaquin Baldwin. I do thoroughly recommend you consider making the journey to Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, for our annual anthropomorphic convention, one of these years. You won’t be disappointed. 

In the meantime, even though the regular strips will be on pause, dear readers, fear not. You’ll still get a daily offering, a sort of scrapbook from the Doc Rat sketch vaults. Every day will be a new surprise. Then, on Monday March 12th, we’ll rejoin the wolves and the rabbits as they toward the climax of our current story.

More news about what’s coming up in 2018 will follow.
