Been cleaning out my attic, and I found this strip by Tom Hart from the Tower Records magazine, somewhere in the mid-1990′s. I used to love Tom Hart, especially his mini-comics, but I some lost track. It’s still a good strip, though.

Tom Hart did a comic for The Panelist, a magazine about ethical invesments. Right up his street, I would say.

Five Obstructions

Inspired by Lars “Dogma” Von Trier (about whom I would very much like to read a freudian psychological analysis, mind you), Tom Hart challenged his friend and co-oubapo-ist Matt Madden to challenge him with five obstructions in a comic strip. The results had to be printed in the Metro newspaper.

The results are quite interesting, and I was quite amazed to see how Tom managed to follow each and every one of Matt’s devious devices, and still keep true to the soul of his strip. It’s a bit sad that paper wouldn’t print the words-only strip. For that reason, I’ve included it here.
