Liberty MeadowsLiberty Meadows is a syndicated comic strip created, written and illustrated by Frank Cho. It relates the comedic activities of the denizens of the titular animal sanctuary/rehabilitation clinic. Style Cho freely mixes visual styles in the strip, drawing the majority of the cast like Walt Kelly's anthropomorphic animals, borrowing Dave Stevens's pin-up look for Brandy, and routinely throwing in savage musclemen, apes and dinosaurs in an elaborate homage to multiple illustrators, including Barry Windsor-Smith's work on Conan the Barbarian. He also uses frequent literary and visual references from sources ranging from Michaelangelo to the movie Deliverance to commercials for Crest toothpaste. The Humans - Brandy Carter - A beautiful animal psychiatrist. ("Yuck. I'm outta here. Way too much testosterone and way too little brainpower.")
