Spider Barks derives from the term “Barking Spiders,” which my dad used to say when he let one rip.
According to UrbanDictionary.com, a Barking Spider is:
“An euphemism for one’s flatulence. It appears to be an allusion to the fact the human rectum resembles a spider (a circular shape with legs, or in this case, wrinkles, extending out to its sides). When this “spider” produces a sound by emission of gas, it is referred to as a barking spider.”
So yeah, Spider Barks is an absurd, sarcastic webcomic for people who appreciate lowbrow humor and high-functioning bullshit detectors.
Read at your own risk. Spider Barks is known to induce eye-rolls, uncontrollable real-life LOLs, and occasionally offend Karens.

Devin is an army brat who crash-landed in Southern California’s high desert in the mid-90s, where he’s been sweating ever since. He’s a smartass who loves dick and fart jokes and would totally have sex with a pizza if he wasn’t in a committed relationship.
When he’s not making comics, he’s probably overthinking everything, yelling at his computer, or wondering if existential dread counts as a hobby.
