| Copper (Webcomic) | comment |
Copper is a webcomic by Kazu Kibuishi, of Amulet, Flight and Daisy Kutter fame. Through a series of mostly-unconnected vignettes, Copper tells the story of the titular character, an adventure-loving boy with a poetic soul, and Fred, his cynical, anxiety-ridden dog. The two of them travel a vaguely-dreamlike world, musing philosophically as they do.Copper has its genesis shortly after the September 11th terrorist attacks, when Kibuishi "drew a picture of a scared, quiet, but calm kid, and ... decided to write a story about him and his fearful dog, Fred." Themes of war and destruction can be found in a few of the earlier comics.The comic began in April of 2002, and updated about once a month (barring a few hiatuses), before going on an extended hiatus from April, 2009, to December, 2016. The most recent comic was posted in February of 2017.Longer Copper stories also feature in the first volumes of Flight and its successor series, Explorer.Not to be confused with the television series about the 1864 police officer. The comic can be read on Kibuishi's website, Bolt City Productions, or (along with two of the extended stories, "Picnic" and "Maiden Voyage") an older version of the same. | |

In Medias Res | |
| Copper (Webcomic) / int_2534ee67 | comment |
In Medias Res: Most comics begin with Copper and Fred having already long begun some journey or endeavor. If you're lucky, they might mention where they've just been or what their objective is. Or, depending on your point of view, if you're lucky, it will remain a mystery you can fill in yourself. | |

The Gadfly: The mysterious recurring girl with the shades and notepad seems to get a kick out of bugging Copper. (There's also her implicit crush on him.) | |

Hot-Blooded: Fred is a pretty pessimistic pooch, but whenever he somehow gets some (generally unearned) confidence, he can be... intense. | |

Missed Him by That Much | |
| Copper (Webcomic) / int_6e27397 | comment |
Missed Him by That Much: On several occasions, Copper and Fred just narrowly miss encountering the Notepad Girl and/or the Girl in the Red Hoodie (as well as the latter's dog, upon whom Fred has a crush.) In one particular instance, this happens as they are lamenting their inability to find love, with Fred claiming he is watching like a hawk for opportunities. | |
