A comic strip about nerdiness, friendship, sex, love ... and other maladies of the human condition.
As the title suggests, the heroes of Singloids are a group of unattached thirty-somethings who struggle with the universal themes of sexlovefriendship.... You may feel you've heard plenty on those topics ... but that's where Singloids stands apart.
