He started out slinging Cyril around like the hilariously destructive mass of GenreSavvy he is; later, he added a CloudCuckoolander robot named Murphy to his repertoire (Murphy is unrelated to ''The Pig's Ear'', though-time will tell what Craig plans do with him). The Pig's Ear went live in March of 2009, after which Craig tried to maintain a once-weekly update schedule, posting a new comic every Thursday (and later Friday) if all went well. In June of 2011, he warned that the comic had to go on an "extended break" because of personal issues; there has not been a single update ever since.

Quick - what do you get when you cross a high-fantasy pub with a slapstick sense of humor and Saturday-morning-cartoon visuals? You get a damn good time, which is one of the better descriptions of Craig Munro's "The Pig's Ear" you could come up with. The Pig's Ear is a webcomic about the hectic life and times of the staff and regulars at the titular pub. The main cast consists of Barkeep, a man of self-descriptive title, Gwen, the recently-hired barmaid, Angus, the dwarfish ex-adventurer chef, and Cyril, an alcoholic wizard who is the regular of regulars at the Ear. Other characters come and go as the joke requires; one of the main recurring side characters is an unnamed fellow of ill-defined but furry species who seems to have struck up some kind of rivalry with Cyril.

'''This comic provides examples of:'''
* AllMenArePerverts: Cyril describes his crystal ball in grandiose fashion as an almighty tool of the arcane...then cops to using it to look at naked ladies.
* BadassNormal: Angus, despite having been retired as an adventurer for years, manages to put the kibosh on an invading force of otherworldly monsters with nothing but a potato peeler (that has dwarven runes).
* ButtMonkey: Everything happens to the barkeep.
* DeadpanSnarker: Sooner or later Cyril reduces everyone to this; Cyril himself snarks indiscriminately.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: I don't think I should really have to explain.
* HonestJohnsDealership: Lucky Bolivar's Discount Healing is implied to be this, but aside from trying to peddle some seriously weird replacements for a missing eye (and one throwaway gag), he's reasonably reliable as an actual healer.
* HourglassHottie: Gwen. Very Gwen.
* MaleGaze: Cyril agrees to give Gwen a probationary period before he decides if he likes having her around for two very specific reasons.
* OneOfUs: Craig. [[http://www.pigsearonline.com/2010/08/11/butt-monkey/ This strip]] is titled ButtMonkey, and advises the uneducated reader to this very wiki should they seek the answer to their question.
* OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame: Aside from being a chef, Angus fits the mold to a T; he even speaks with a Scottish FunetikAksent, a trait none of the other characters exhibit (and bear in mind that ''Craig himself'' is Scottish).
* [[OnlySixFaces Only]] [[strike:Six Faces]] [[OnlySixFaces One Expression]]: Cyril's nose is his only visible facial feature; thus, body language and what he's actually saying are the only indicators of his mood. Lampshaded twice; once with "The Many Expressions of Cyril T. Wizard", and once when Cyril is describing his reaction to the sudden appearance of a naked, drunken Gwen.
** The actual trope is averted, though; all the characters have very distinctive faces and silhouettes.
* ScheduleSlip: For the most part Craig does his best to avoid this-when he foresees a big dead zone ahead, he puts out a call for guest strips (as of this writing, he's just recently made his second such request).
* SorryBillyButYouJustDontHaveLegs: The reason Barkeep rejected the applicants for the assistant barkeep position that came before Gwen.
* SquishyWizard: Played with. Cyril isn't much of a physical fighter; but on the other hand, his catchphrase is "Kung fu is for wimps."
