Achewood is a webcomic created by Chris Onstad in 2001. It portrays the lives of a group of anthropomorphic stuffed toys, robots, and pets. Many of the characters live together in the home of their owner, Chris, at the fictional address of 62 Achewood Court. The events of the strip mostly take place in and around the house, as well as around the town of Achewood, a fictional suburb. The comic's humor is usually absurdist, typically lacking a traditional punchline, and sometimes surreal. The strip features many characters with detailed backstories. Many Achewood strips contain some reference to food or drink because the author is a food and cooking enthusiast. Originally published regularly, the comic began to miss release dates in late 2010. In March 2011, Onstad announced that Achewood would be going on an indefinite hiatus. In November 2011, the comic returned, followed by an announcement in December that the hiatus was over. However, Onstad stated that no regular schedule will be in effect, and new strips were released sporadically. Onstad indicated in 2013 that he had plans for pitching Achewood as an animated series. No further news came from this, and the comic itself was not updated between April 7, 2014, and December 24, 2015. When the strip returned, it was updated most subsequent Fridays. On December 25, 2016, Onstad announced that the strip would go on another hiatus. In 2023, Onstad resumed producing Achewood on a consistent weekly basis, making it available via Patreon.
