I've been so high, I turned my phone's flashlight on to look for my phone.

I feel like this deserves an award

"Where is the award?"

"It's in your hands."

"Whoa! Far out, man!"

I'm seeing some proportional discrepancies

[–] GrantUsEyes@lemmy.zip 16 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I think we are seeing the project in it's early stages and the author has been experimenting with different things and finding their voice and style; there's bound to be inconsistencies. They are clearly talented and are helping grow the community with original content so, major props to them! This comic even inspired me to give it a try and make my own... (Which I posted in other community 'cause it's just basically fan art, but still :P)

Idono, I think this one is quite unique and interesting, if it's just a choice they made I really like it

Honestly I kinda like the exaggerated proportions. Wiiiiide head is great.

[–] Blujayooo@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Interesting...

The long shot at the end makes sense, but that tiny body floating above her hair in the third panel seems out of place.

There was this one time I was looking for the matches, and they were in my hand. What I can't remember is if I had the matches in my hand the whole time, or if I found them, grabbed them and kept on looking for them.

Do you have the source link?

[–] LaserTurboShark69@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I love the facial expressions in these comics. Very cute very funny

[–] Blujayooo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

Aw, thank you! xD

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Nice to see Calvin from Calvin and Hobbs got married.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Look up Hobbes & Bacon, a fan comic where Calvin and Susie got married, had a little girl, and now she runs around with Hobbes.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

I wonder if Calvin still sees Hobbes as alive? None of the comics say either way.

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

........they named their daughter "Bacon"?

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Probably Francis for Francis Bacon because of Calvin and Hobbes names, so Bacon as a nickname to keep it in theme?

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

Should be Frances, then.

Thank you! It's amazing!

Seems like the official website is on infinite maintenance, so I found them here.

Edit: they are on the artist's DevianArt

[–] Hjalamanger@feddit.nu 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

This is really cool! I'd love to see more comics like this
