Mimi & Eunice is a comic by artist Nina Paley (who you may remember as the artist behind Sita Sings the Blues). The comic touches on Free Culture, artistic struggles, internet drama and of course poop.

Yeah, I wasn't sure how to characterize the humor. Maybe "3 panel Ziggy"?

I haven't actually read Ziggy in over a century.

This is charming. I've always liked Nina Paley's work but I hadn't followed her closely enough to know about this strip. And yes to adding those strips to the gray and the green!

Of course I click on poop first. I often amaze me.

Yay! Great to see Nina Paley doing a strip again, after all these decades.

"Again"? Is there a link to a previous strip?

Hihn, she's pretty funny when she's not being all white-person appropriative. Bookmarked.

Sorry for being so mysterious. I was referring to "Nina's Adventures", her earliest syndicated work. It's Creative Commonsed too, but all over the internet. The largest concentration is at http://www.cartoonistgroup.com/, via searching, and the second is at archive.org, where there's a block that can be downloaded.

Ok, after reading more of the comic, I take back my meh-ness.
