THE ANGRIEST DOG IN THE WORLD BY DAVID LYNCH

The Angriest Dog in the World is a comic strip conceived by David Lynch in 1973, but not realized until 1983, when it first ran in the alternative weekly newspaper Los Angeles Reader. Visually each strip is the same, with the panels never changing. Word balloons are changed out over time in one or more of the panels, indicating speech from unseen characters, usually in the form of an aphorism or non-sequitur. The strip appeared in the Los Angeles Reader until 1992.
