Behold, an un-pale horse with no name. Oh, wait. His name is Horace. And he's sarcastic. And silly. And lives in an infinitely expandable world. And sometimes gets slapstuck. And day after unpredictable day he boldly goes where no horse -- let alone a comic strip -- has gone before. Yes, there are sidekicks; a bird, a lady horse, a never-seen neighbor. And if the post-it note did not exist, Samson would have had to invent it so Horace would have yellow panels in which to play. Welcome to the bright side of the world. May the horse be with you.

Samuli lives in Helsinki with his wife, their three children and numerous cats.

Five is right out."

Meet the Cast of Dark Side of the Horse

Sk-horace
HORACE A horse of a different color. Thinks he's far too perfect to be arrogant. Not a big reader. Or a real talker. Not much of a listener, either. He does enjoy sitting, though. Honorary Doctor of Cartoon Physics, Wile E. Coyote University.
Sk-melody
MELODY The lady horse. Yin to Horace's Yang (or vice versa). Horace is her unofficial personal trainer, as he provides her with plenty of exercise in the form of serious eye-rolling. Are they romantically linked? When we reached out to Cupid for a comment, his spokesperson responded, “It's complicated.”
Sk-sine
SINE The bird. The third wheel that seldom keeps their feet on the ground. Provides flying commentary for this cartoon. Junior Branch Manager, backyard tree.
