On Mondays and Thursdays, we syndicate comic strips from around the IST network. If you're an artist and would like to share your works with our readers, please email us.

Today we're posting another comic from Washington, D.C.'s The Argyle Academy. It's "a comic strip about a vampire cat named Lionel, a lonely octopus named Matthew, two fireflies in a jar who are constantly breaking up and getting back together, remorseful robots, and other random stuff," says its creator, Mike Lowery.

Next Monday: a comic by Austin artist Travis Nichols!
