Deflocked
''Deflocked'' is a comic strip written and illustrated by Jeff Corriveau, which follows the adventures of four major characters, described as “deliriously funny yet seriously dysfunctional.”〔(King Features Deflocked )〕 The strip, which Corriveau originally based loosely on Hippocrates' Four Humours〔(About Deflocked )〕 attempts to detail relationships similar to Norman Lear’s ''All in the Family''〔(''DEFLOCKED'': IT’S LIKE YOUR LIFE…ONLY WOOLLIER! )〕 through the exploits of Mamet, a wayward sheep, the dog siblings Cobb and Rupert, and Tucker, an 8-year-old boy raised by the dogs. The strip was syndicated in May 2008.
The strip is set in the American suburbs on an old farmstead called Lubberland Farms which has a secret home for displaced, disenchanted, and disoriented outcasts. Mamet, a self-absorbed sheep, is the main character who acts recklessly and at times insults the other characters. He interacts with the mature, morally centered dog Cobb and Cobb’s immature but devoted younger sibling Rupert. The two dogs raise Tucker, a human boy with a dark and twisted disposition.
==History==
''Deflocked'' made its debut in the ''La Canada Valley Sun'' newspaper in California in 2006. Corriveau had been writing comedy for ''Saturday Night Live'', ''The Tonight Show with Jay Leno'' and as head writer for ''Talk Soup.'' Since the paper was unable to pay for the strip, Corriveau provided it to them without charge. In May 2008, ''Deflocked'' was picked up by King Features and is now available in many newspapers.〔(DeFlocked goes ’round DeNation )〕
Corriveau’s ''Deflocked'' has also appeared since June 16, 2007 in the PETA blog, written by Jack Shepherd.〔(''DeFlocked'', by Jeff Corriveau )〕 Once the comic strip was available through King Features syndication, PETA stopped featuring the strip, although Corriveau has continued to supply the organization with cartoons and artwork on other issues such as horse racing.〔( 10% Wool, by Jeff Corriveau )〕
