Meet the good people from the chronically underfunded, dangerously overstretched, and universally disregarded IT department at Industry Industries. A group of delightfully archetypal IT folks, earnestly drudging through their endearingly paradigmatic daily workplace misery… with a smile!!! The breadth of their work and skills is absolutely heroic -some would even say cartoonishly unrealistic- for such a small, unanimously ignored team. But that's also actually pretty delightfully archetypal in IT.

Hello! I'm Patrick, Devolutions' friendly neighborhood cartoonist. I draw the Sysadminotaur comics, and all the related artwork and illustrations. I'm an animator by trade, with a heavy penchant for old school exaggerated cartoony characters. So, while I dig the techy stuff and work with techy people, I'm technically not an IT person myself. I'm an imposter, if you will. But all of this (I hope!) converges into an interesting take on the world of IT that will appeal to the savvy IT pros out there, as well as, of course, my fellow imposters.
