Time for my annual chicken vacation (I’ll be back with new comics on January 2!) but before I go, here are the most popular chicken comics of 2024, and a bunch of my personal favourites. And here’s my standard class photo of all the characters who appeared in more than one Savage Chickens comic this year.
It’s been a fun year! I drew a theme week about snakes with moustaches. And another one about a piece of driftwood and a seagull. I reached the crazy milestone of 5000 comics. I finished my fifth Laser Moose and Rabbit Boy book, Spidermania (in stores April 15!). And I somehow overcame my lifelong fear of spiders!
Here are the most popular chickens of this year…

Thank you Doug! Your comics have brought me daily joy for years and years. Enjoy your holiday!
Thanks Renee! That’s wonderful to hear! 🙂
Happy holidays! 🙂
Thanks Ant! I just started playing the game “Empire of the Ants”, so I might be inspired to draw more ants in 2025! 😉
I want to play that new RTS game, but my video card is too old. 🙁 I did play the one from Y2K. It was pretty, but OK. I preferred Maxis’ SimAnt! Did you ever play that one?
Wait. More ants? When did you draw ants before?
Ha! Hardly ever! https://www.savagechickens.com/tag/ants
All the best of the best, Doug! Looking forward to another 5,000!
Cheers to a terrific 2024 Doug! May the new year bring you health, prosperity and continued success!
Driftwood was certainly the best new character (perhaps I mean “memorable”). I’m still partial to every tree comic, whether happy or sad.
Thank you so much for posting these for free. I pass through the store every now and then to lend support. Ideas: A 365 page-a-day calendar. If a custom printer would actually do printed sticky notepads, that would be cool, but probably cost prohibitive, sigh.
