Imagine . . . You only have good intentions Always mean well But no matter what No matter how hard you try things always go wrong Very Very Wrong WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF DICKIE! Dickie is a loser. He is constantly betrayed by his own shortcomings, desires and naivety, crushed by the indifference of the world in these one-page silent cartoons. His female counterpart, Vickie, fares no better! Originally published in Belgium in 2001 under its Flemish name "Boerke" the comic is well known for pushing boundaries and challenging traditional comic norms. The creator beautifully combines a satirical and cynical dark humor with his innocent graphic style to both shock and surprise the reader. Now his storytelling skills and creative genius can be enjoyed in silent English!
