Sam Spina

The Sunday comics are as much a part of Americana as apple pie, and yet, it seems the art of comics is fading away. However, Spinadoodles is still alive and well, bringing a creative eye and a giggle to those that are lucky enough to find it. Created by Sam Spina, Spinadoodles are published in the Colorado Daily in Boulder or available on his website. Spina's four-panel comic strips usually come from his own life and often refer to experiences from his job as a waiter.
