Planet Saturday Comics- memory, imagination, and parenthood. Updated weekly.

Emory is a kid who has a "rich inner life"...

...which is a nice way of saying that all his friends are imaginary. He doesn't seem too bothered by this, though.

Emory's got a whole bunch of superpowers which help him cope with his basement full of monsters. But if he could only have one superpower, he knows which one he'd pick.

'M' is Emory at around forty.

(He just goes by the one initial these days, because he thinks 'Em' looks like it should have an 'Auntie' in front of it.)

You might think he'd have fewer imaginary friends at this age, but you'd be wrong.

M's a dad now- a Sensitive Dad, who remembers the trials of childhood and stands ready to help his daughter navigate those turbulent waters. The thing is, though, his daughter doesn't seem to have ANY of the problems he had as a kid. So they go to the park a lot and look for frogs.

And this is Dot- short for 'Dorothy', and for 'daughter'.

She loves her dad, even though she thinks he's pretty much completely corny. Dot's age varies from comic to comic- she's usually a grade-school-aged kid, but she's made appearances as a toddler, and even as a nose-honking baby.
