In the Floyd Archives is a cartoon novel (with footnotes!) lightly based on Freud's famous case histories - the Wolf Man, the Rat Man, Dora and Little Hans. But in this wildly inventive comic, the analyst is a bird and his patients are animals too: Wolfman is a passive-aggressive wolf with identity issues, Rat Ma'am, an obsessive-compulsive rat, Lambskin a depressed lamb (or lambskin), and Bunnyman is paranoid.

Mother May I? is the sequel to the comic In the Floyd Archives. In this hilarious riff on the work of the child psychoanalysts Melanie Klein and DW Winnicott, the stars are Melanin Klein, a small black sheep who adores talking about ta-tas and widdlers, plus her three kids - Melittle Klein, a bitter kitten, Little Hans, a violent bunny, and Squiggle Piggle, a pig whose tail creates pictures when pulled.
