Premise
Dogwood is an American webcomic about the inhabitants of the town Dogwood in the fictional country of Mookoria. It mainly follows the extended Scruffy family as well as other families such as their neighbors the McFrys, the Snoogs, the Nibblys. and the Whiffletons. It also features individuals who don't have their extended families nearby such as Pickles the pangolin. Mookoria is primarily inhabited by anthropomorphic animals, but features people also. Although I can't draw them well.Mookoria
Mookoria would probably sit where some of the northern edge states of the USA are as well as where some of Canada is. You can see the map here. It is primarily based on western Montana as well Britain in both environment and culture.Origins
See origins page for more details.Dogwood began like many stories and comics I assume, as bits and pieces from one idea being carried to another and another and combined with new bits until becoming what it now is. The same can be said for many of the main characters. Dogwood actually has several earlier incarnations, two poems for a poetry class I took, and several failed short stories, and an earlier attempt at launching it as a webcomic that I never uploaded. (It was only a single strip that rather sucked.) It is inspired by Bill Watterson's "Calvin and Hobbes", Schultz's "Peanuts", Hart's "B.C" and "Wizard of Id", Davis's "Garfield", Larson's "The Far Side". As well as Carl Bark's and Don Rosa's "Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck comics", Floyd Gottferdson's "Mickey Mouse", Breathed's Bloom County ; and finally Matthew Taranto's Brawl in the Family Webcomic.
