The new comic strip that explores the afterlife in a humorous, “Never Been Deader,” premiers on the Great Bend Tribune comic pages starting today. The Tribune is the first paper in the nation to carry the strip from Tommy Devoid.

“Never Been Deader” replaces “Spiderman,” which is no longer in print syndication anywhere.

The strip follows Lifeless Carl as he reluctantly navigates the afterlife. Working at Afterlife Industries, where he works in the Department of Intake for the recently deceased, he and  y his dead colleagues are always ready to complain about their jobs over some coffee.

His cat Furball does care about Carl, however, he is more concerned about when he going to be fed next.
