Patrick Alexander (born Patrick A. Reid, June 29, 1981) is an Australian cartoonist. He draws for numerous publications distributed throughout Australia and New Zealand, and wrote for videogame magazine Total Gamer, until he moved to Japan in 2006. His best known print work includes Pink Chickens, which debuted in Mania in 2001.

In 2002 Pink Chickens was dropped from the magazine following a complaint from the parent of a reader. However, it was soon replaced by another strip entitled Tobias and Jube, which Alexander drew under the pseudonym of Dot McSodden. Since Pink Chickens the first six episodes have been published in a booklet in 2003. From late 2005 until early 2006 some of the episodes originally serialised in Mania were reprinted in Krash.

Alexander's more recent creations include the more adult webcomics CUNT! and Raymondo Person, which has also appeared in print in Queensland based magazine Rave since 2004. Raymondo Person was nominated for both Webcomic Strip of the Year and Comic Strip of the Year in the 2005 Ledger Awards

Journalism

Alexander has also been involved in several Next Media Pty Ltd gaming magazines. He was deputy editor of the short lived, bi-monthly young person's magazine Gameboy Advance World (2002-2004), as well as deputy editor of the now defunct Total Gamer from 2004-2006. He is a semi-regular contributor to both Hyper (magazine) and Nintendo Gamer magazines
