On the Beat with David Willis

Yesterday, I wrote about the fun of stumbling upon greatness at Wizard World.  The credit for today's bit of serendipity goes to JayHawk Evans, who found web cartoonist David Willis in the artists area.
David is the creative force responsible for such gems as It's Walky!, Shortpacked! and Dumbing of Age
It's Walky! is not in current publication.  It involved a Fictional alien-fighting organization.
Shortpacked! is set in a toy store and is more R-rated than standard comic strips.  It also occasionally lampoons other comics such as Funky Winkerbean.
Dumbing of Age is about college freshmen in a co-ed dorm.  It is fresh and fun, not connected to his other works and it is updated Monday through Friday.
JayHawk talked to David about his latest projects in the video below.  After watching the video, be sure to check out Shortpacked.com and DumbingofAge.com for more laughs and more info on David Willis.
