The latest Dim & Dash strip for Art of Manliness

I’ve been doing a series of cartoons with the Art of Manliness blog based on the old Highlights magazine strip Goofus & Gallant, where Goofus was the misbehaving kid and Gallant did it right.

Our version features a pair called Dim & Dash, and where Dim always seems to get it wrong, our Dash knows the right way.

This latest one is called “Parking.”

Close-up on Ted's work for Art of Manliness

Ted Slampyak is now a regular contributor at the popular lifestyle blog The Art of Manliness. He’ll be providing graphics and diagrams that will help explain or expand on the subject at hand, from the perfect handshake to winning at carnival games.

In addition, he’s going to be drawing the twice-monthly illustrated Dim & Dash, a parody of Goofus & Gallant that will show the right way, and the wrong way, to do a thing. So far Dim & Dash have covered breaking up and etiquette at the gym.

Look for more of Ted’s work coming up at the Art of Manliness blog!

The illustrations accompanied parts of the article that talked about getting around on a bike, navigating the new roundabouts downtown, [...]
