The Adventures of Format Monkey

Format Monkey was a consulting graphic designer in New York City in the early 20th century. His personal journal was recently found in his grandson's attic. In this blog, his adventures are retold in classic comic strip format. The image in the comic is the best approximation of what Format Monkey looked like, as all of his possessions including his typewriter were lost in the Great Chicago Fire and then again in the Great San Francisco Earthquake and then one last time on Black Tuesday.

Updates

FM is updated ~~every M, W, R, and F. Every M, W, and F are retellings of anecdotes from Format Monkey's personal notes. Every Thursday is Fan Fiction Day.~~ And every Tuesday is my beach day. Submit your ideas for Fan Fiction Thursday to formatmonkey at gmail dot com. The best ideas (ok, the only ideas at this point) will be turned into real-life Format Monkey strips using the exact same state-of-the-art graphic design programs (Microsoft Paint!) used to make the real strip.

Also, check out the ads, because FM's grandson is still paying off his bill from rehab last summer, ~~where he finally kicked his banana addiction~~ because he keeps relapsing.
