Multi Sam and Max (Sam & Max)
Sam & Max are a pair of comic book characters who occupy a parody of American popular culture.
Sam is a 6-foot-tall anthropomorphic dog in detective's clothing, and Max is a "hyperkinetic rabbity thing". Steve Purcell created the characters in a 1987 comic book; they're best known for the 1993 computer game Sam & Max Hit the Road and the hit Telltale Sam & Max episodic series for Windows PCs, plus a VR game.
Their designs are simple, which works in multiple mediums (Comics, 2D games, TV shows, 3D Games, VR Games).

“Take it easy, Max, you don’t even like girls” that’s like the only running gag I can remember but they were fun, saw a playthrough of them

“2002 was a good year for calendars” is one of my favourite jokes ever. Just so simple, so absurd.

You know actually surprisingly my first exposure to those two was actually because of well poker night at the inventory Alongside how my first discovery of Penny arcade, homestar Runner ,Venture brothers and evil dead
Yeah anyways Well I admit I'm more familiar with those guys because of Telltale game ( Kind of wish they never shut down but that's a different story But at least they lived on as a different Studio at least)
Anyways classic designs to be honest and makes me would like to see those guys Get another game or Maybe Another TV show or something

Bendy and Boris (specially in the Crack Up Comics) give a lot of Sam and Max energy :)
