[edit] The World of Vicki Fox comic strip
The formal name of the Vicki Fox comic strip is, The World of Vicki Fox. However, most people simply call it, Vicki Fox.
The comic strip was started in early 2001 as a way of telling stories with the Vicki Fox cast of characters.
The comic strip is a spice-of-life comedy told in stories. It is a serial instead of a gag comic strip.
[edit] Comic strip
The Vicki Fox comic strip is formally called The World of Vicki Fox.
The comic strip is written by Michael Russell. He has teamed up with various artists to illustrate the comic. The first two stories were illustrated by Laura Howell, the young lady who created the model sheets and style for the characters. Subsequent stories have been illustrated by Shelley Pleger.
The comic strip is organized around stories. For example, the original story, Video Introductions, provided an overall plot where Vicki is creating a video of her friends to send to her parents. As a result, the comic strip is a serial instead of a gag comic strip.
In order to ensure a monthly release schedule, Michael introduced the Minding the Gap filler comic strip series. In this series, he accepts or solicits contributions from fans and other artists. Details about this filler comic strip series can be found on the web site.
The comic strip stories take place in contemporary America at a small country college town in north Georgia.
