Every now and then, strange comics show up in my mailbox. There’s something great about it, to be honest.

In the case of Tupelo from Slave Labor Graphics, that’s exactly what happened.

If you try and compare something to the television show “Twin Peaks”, all most people seem to remember was the over-the-top aspects of the show and that it became incomprehensibly strange and sputtered out into oblivion.
