Married to the Sea is a webcomic by husband and wife Drew and Natalie Dee. Each has a personal webcomic project: Drew is also the author of Toothpaste for Dinner and Natalie Dee produces NatalieDee.com.

There is one new comic on Married to the Sea daily. According to the site, it updates at midnight EST, "without exception." The comics themselves are composed of public domain images (Victorian or otherwise) combined with new captions written by the authors. Despite its dated appearance, frequent references of current events, as well as modern technologies or concepts, make it easily apparent that the comic itself is being written in the present day. The comic has been described by the magazine New York as brilliant and lowbrow.

The subject matter on Married to the Sea seems to draw from all spheres - popular music and entertainment, science, history, government, politics, and philosophy. The intentions of the characters are frequently ambiguous, and their actions and words are the polar opposite from the opinions expressed in actual Victorian-era America.

The first Married to the Sea comic was posted online on February 13, 2006. The site now sells several t-shirts and prints based on comics from Married to the Sea.

I thoroughly enjoy this comic, and wanted to share with the three of you that haven't seen it.
Link up yo' favs, chaps.

    My dad was married to the sea at heart. He's buried in the Atlantic.

    But this comic has potential. I shall investigate it further
