And that is certainly the case with his hugely popular; comic strip Odd Streak which has become an international success. Through this single-panel, floating theme cartoon, Lopes applies his keen wit; to the small moments of everyday life, finding humour in the quirks of human nature. Since 1995, Lopes has amassed an impressive list of awards, as the universal appeal of this hugely popular comic strip has put smiles on the faces of readers throughout the world. Odd Streak is the only cartoon to win Stanley awards; in both the comic strip and single gag categories. In the UK, the strip appears in the Daily Mail and is syndicated in the Netherlands, Greece, Sweden, Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand and India, where it is known as 'Insanity Streak'.
