There's Dad, a fisherman, Mom, a gardener, their almost feral young son Sterling, who never met a bug he wouldn't eat, and his older brother Wallace, a rambunctious, imaginative kid big on exploring. Mostly we see the world of the strip through Wallace's eyes, a sleepy East Coast beach town called Snug Harbor where the streets are lined with ice cream shops and the beaches are dotted with rocky tide pools \u003c\/i\u003e... \u003ci\u003eThe world of childhood depicted in the strip is a timeless, outdoorsy one reminiscent of strips like \"Calvin \u0026amp; Hobbes\" and \"Cul De Sac,\" both of which Henry cites as influences. -- \u003c\/i\u003eNPR's Glen Weldon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHenry, Will:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Will Henry is the creator behind \u003ci\u003eOrdinary Bill\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWallace the Brave\u003c\/i\u003e, both distributed on GoComics.com.
