Silent comics are my favorite and also the hardest to write. Usually when you sit down to write a silent comic you fail. They usually happen by accident. A lot of times you're messing with dialog and punchlines forever until you realize the comic works without any words.
This one came about while watching a bunch of our foster dogs struggle up the porch steps. Unfortunately they didn’t have Sophie to help them.
