Character: 01 - Mat Blitz

Mat is a naïve, oblivious, and lifelong underachiever who has held the same dead-end job for 15 years as a junior copywriter for a nameless conglomerate. Every day, he finds himself pulled in different directions as he deals with ridiculous situations and annoying co-workers.

Mat also has a complex personal life. He has recently separated from his spouse, is parenting his two precocious kids, is living in a dilapidated basement apartment, and dealing with a hostile roommate. On top of all that, he is navigating the unfamiliar territory of dating after a long-term marriage.

About the Comic Strip

Mat is a copywriter who has been stuck in a dead-end job at a faceless corporate conglomerate for over two decades.

Despite his best efforts, Mat always seems to find himself in ridiculous situations at work, such as dealing with incompetent managers, greedy and immoral executives, absurd cost-cutting measures, and a robot that runs HR.

However, Mat's struggles are not limited to his work. He has recently separated from his spouse, is parenting his two precocious children, is living in a dilapidated basement apartment, and is dealing with a hostile roommate.

And if that wasn't enough, he's also navigating the daunting world of dating after a long-term marriage.

We hope you enjoy following Mat's adventures.
