Great comic strip

Fleep is a pretty wild online comic. It's about a guy who goes into a phone booth, blacks out and wakes up to find it is surrounded by concrete. In his pocket, he has a Simbian to Russian dictionary, a note written in Simbian, several coins and 20 feet of dental floss. From that point on, the strip (which originally ran in a newspaper) shows how the main character tries to figure out where he is and why. For a while, not much happens in the strip, but it really pays off toward the end.
The strip was created by Jason Shiga. Time.com has a profile of his work here. Shiga also has a Live Journal account, which appears to be inactive.
