Once Upon a Time in The '80s, a Filipino architect named Apolonio "Pol" Medina Jr. came home from the Middle East and made a comic strip, inspired partly by a friend who bought a pig farm and partly by other things from his life and work. Pugad Baboy (Filipino for "pig-nest") is a newspaper comic about the daily life and adventures of a community of fat people in a Manila suburb.Pugad Baboy debuted in the Philippine Daily Inquirer on May 18, 1988, as one of the young paper's first comic strips. From 2004 to 2009, it also had full-color Sunday strips. After 25 years, controversy forced Medina to leave on June 6, 2013. On June 17, it resumed as a webcomic for the Philippine news website Rappler. Due to the web-friendly format, it was now oriented vertically instead of horizontally, and for a time had alternate choose-your-own punchlines. It concluded on March 1, 2018 - and returned to its previous newspaper format via the Inquirer's longtime rival, the Philippine Star, on March 5.It has produced merchandise, book compilations, original graphic novels, and a short-lived live-action TV comedy series in the 1990s.While the main characters are the Sungcal family and their talking dog Polgas, it also features strips tackling Philippine society, culture, and politics. The wide scope of its humor has caused it to be compared to Doonesbury. propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }); Pugad Baboy has examples of the following tropes:
