Chopping Block is a webcomic by Lee Adam Herold, hosted on Keenspot. The strip takes a one-panel format with a text caption underneath the picture, and is updated sporadically; Herold admits that he will "update from time to time, then... disappear for even longer."[1]
Chopping Block uses a gray-tone art style that is inked and sponged before being scanned into the computer.[2]
