Debuting in 2010 with the black-and-white graphic novel Set to Sea, Weing went on to create the webcomic The Creepy Case Files of Margo Maloo.
The story of Set to Sea parodies Boys' Own tales such as Treasure Island and Captains Courageous,[1] as it "[follows] the transition from innocence to experience for an aspiring poet kidnapped and forced into sailor life."
Set to Sea was intended only as a small and experimental side project, with Weing initially drawing a single panel every day.
[2] Since 2009, Weing and his wife Eleanor Davis have been teaching cartooning at the University of Georgia as part of its "Summer Academy" program.
"[4][5] Since February 2014, Drew Weing has been running the webcomic The Creepy Case Files of Margo Maloo, about a boy named Charles Thompson who moves to a monster-ridden apartment building.
[9] In an interview with Paste Magazine, Weing stated that the entirety of his comics career has involved the World Wide Web in some form, with Set to Sea being serialized online before print publication as well.
