Ants on Fire

That, or click it.

Almost one hour from missing the deadline. I have spent my entire day working on this, and I really want to do something else now.

Also, I missed last week's comic and the Possum Tails one-year anniversary. Or the anniversary of its revival, anyway. It's been a crazy couple of weeks.

Next week, I'm going to try and kick off what will be by far the biggest series yet. Here's hoping I can get back on track and stay there. See you then!

No Showers for Algernon

Sometimes you just gotta roll up your sleeves and click to enlarge.

It took nearly a year, but Al's finally been reintroduced into the strip!

In addition to that, I finally finished the Possum Tails font. It didn't come out like I hoped it would... Inserting a space creates a huge, awkward chasm between the words, so I've been having to insert and erase hyphens in order to get the right amount of space. It's much easier than drawing each individual letter though, so I'm grateful for that!

Next Friday, new comic. See you there!

(Part 6 - Finale)

All these years and I've finally finished this series (although this particular comic was only written a few months ago - the series originally ended with the fifth comic).

Disclaimer: Possum Tails is a work of fiction, and the cartoony high jinks within should not be emulated in real life. Never let your pets play in the freezer. Or walk on two legs and speak English. If you catch them in the act, make sure to call them out on it or they'll never learn.
(Although if the pet in question is a bird, you can allow them to walk on two legs and speak. Just don't let them get too uppity about it - birds are arrogant enough as it is.)

Before I start on the next comic, I really need to get to work on making a Possum Tails font. I figure getting that done will save me a lot of time and grief with lettering.

Be sure to tune in next week!

True Friendship Never Dies

You should Click to Enlarge this thing. Just sayin'.

(Part 5)

You may have noticed that "Sunday" comics haven't been coming out regularly anymore. When making series like this, it's very difficult to work with the last-week-of-every-month cycle, so I just make them whenever they match up with the joke. Good news though, tomorrow will be a "Sunday", and the finale to this series! (But not the last time we'll see Eddie.)

Same time, same place, new comic. See you then!
