Howdy Grovers! Time for another CotW! This week, the spotlight falls on the Spiderforest.com comic Precocious by Christopher J. Paulsen. It’s about four gifted children that attend Poppinstock Academy and they may just be too smart for their own good. They live in a community called Gemstone Estates and the neighborhoods are divided into names that reflect the community name.

The comic was started in 2009 and has already amassed quite an archive, but the strip reads pretty fast so you won’t have to devote months just to catch up. The writing is pretty charming and deals with family and community life in the close-knit town and serves as a quasi-biography for the artist/writer himself.

So head on over and check it out! Bookmark it and support my fellow Spiderforest.com creator.
