Tundra: Freeze Dried Comics
Born in the state of Michigan, raised in the state of Alaska and constantly in the state of confusion, cartooning has been a part of Chad Carpenter his entire life. As a young child, when normal kids would be playing video games, watching TV or talking on the phone, Chad could be found scribbling on anything that didn't move (and a few things that did). This same geeky, antisocial behavior lasted well into young adulthood when Chad decided to seek out a career as a cartoonist. Chad's quest to avoid a real job was successful. His comic strip Tundra hit the newspapers like certain other things hit fans. Tundra has been called the fastest growing newspaper comic strip in North America and has been labeled as a worthy successor to the Far Side by newspaper editors. On most days, Chad can be found scribbling away at his home in Wasilla, Alaska.
