About Thatababy

Thatababy's philosophy can be summed up quite neatly: To keep his parents on their toes. This new comic strip stars—well, a baby, of course, and the mother and father in charge of raising him. The premise of "Thatababy" is as fun and instantly accessible as its crisp, colorful art: It's a baby's job to drive parents crazy. You may recognize "Thatababy" as a finalist and runner-up in the Amazon Comic Strip Superstar contest that ran on Amazon.com in the fall of 2009. "Thatababy" received glowing reviews from the contest's celebrity panel of judges.
