"Dreams of an Ambien Addict"

 First long form comic strip I've done in a while.. Slight homage to the legendary Winsor McCay, who drew "Dreams of the Rarebit Fiend" back in the early 20th century. The idea was that every strip was a dream sequence, and at the end the dreamer would wake up fitfully, saying that he was going to swear off "Welsch rarebit" forever, after the nightmares it gave him. I was always a bit unclear on what "rarebit" might be... Some sort of disgusting rabbit stew, referred to in the dialect of the people who invented it? But later I learned it's some kind of disgusting moldy cheese... (I think. Welsch rarebit experts please correct me : ))
