Brian Basset - Adam@Home

Adam@Home

Following his layoff at the Seattle Times, Basset's wife was forced to look for work to help support their family, and Basset's comic strip reflected this changing reality as Adam Newman became a stay-at-home dad and the comic strip focused more fully on the role of men as care-givers and Adam's home office life.

In 1995, this change was noticeable as the comic's name became "Adam@Home".

Beginning with the February 23, 2009 strip, Basset handed over drawing responsibilities for Adam@home to Rob Harrell, former comic strip artist of Big Top. Basset drew almost a month's worth of Sunday strips after that, with Harrell's first Sunday strip appearing on March 22, 2009.
