D8Why did you name a comic after a film starring Bjork?
You actually knew the reference then? haha. No reason in particular, just the fact that Reeder is dancing.. and its dark… he’s blind… and he, you know… BURP!ALSO, just to peeve you a bit?
Ahh.They play the shit out of that movie on IFC. Like you said, I am quicker than most people.
probably why I don’t have a girlfriend…lol.. yeah.. being too “quick” may be a turn off to most girls. Speaking of which, do you realize you are almost always my first commenter? lol, your like Super Update Checker Man!
Nah. I’ve just got eerily good timing.
A.K.A. Creeper.
Awww…..how come you get your own personal stalker? Hope you brought enough for everybody! :)
haha, I sprayed myself with stalker hormones. It helps draw stalkers to me, maybe you can try that to get your own stalkers?
So, he came back from the dead … only to die again. Awesome.
…only to come back and repeat the cycle. ><
OMGThank god the hat is okay!
…for now, Teddy …for now.
Joe’s one sound ass sleeper. If some zombie rabbit stole my victory hat and was dancing a weird dance around me, I would probably wake up and re-beat him with my bat of justice.
Well think about it though.. the rabbit has been deflated.. he was already pretty damn small.. something that light weight.. light weight enough to get blown into a fire.. probably doesn’t make much noise at all.. which makes the dancing even creepier. Imagine waking up to that! …gives me the chills.
New to the site, read through the whole thing today. Interesting and very strange. Gotta say that its pretty unique. Anyways i think the best part was the look of content on the face in the fire =)
I appreciate your comment! I’m glad to see that you like the comic so far; strange is definitely what I’m going for! It’s fantastic to know that there are people out there who share my interest in strange humor! :Dhaha, wouldn’t you be content too if you just ate a undead dancing stuffed rabbit? I would be. :]
Most definitely! To be honest i was not sure if the rabbit had just done something extremely creepy or had died and its cool to be able to get inside your mind a little bit here. Being a HUGE zombie fan i can definitely appreciate your humor =)As a side note have your ever watched the cartoon The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy?I used to watch it as a kid, and there was a talking Raven in a hat that told stories, and every time i see your bird character i think of the voice from the cartoon.
I was worried that it wouldn’t make a 100% of sense… I almost wrote out a narrative for these past two strips… but decided to give it a go with no words, simply for the fact that I’d like to get better at become a visual story teller as well verbal story teller. Oh well, at least you got it in the end… and either way, i like to always throw in a few levels of humor in each strip; the fact that you enjoyed the fire burping was good enough for me! :]haha, glad you like zombie stuff cos zombie stuff rocks. I haven’t heard of the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy though, sounds like something I’d like. What channel was it on?
It was a Cartoon Network thing, maybe still is. A wikipedia search could give you more info.In the end i really appreciate the strips without text, the overall feel is quite good that way. Keep up the good work
Aye Aye, Sir!
DANCE OF THE BLOOD BUNNY!!!It’s adorably twisted. :}
I adore your phrasing of that “Dance of the blood bunny” …makes Reeder seem so much cooler than he is.
OH OH OH! I called it! And I see that our little flame friend that you made a plushie out of has joined. Wee!
Too smart for your own good i see!It’s nice to have ya back, by the way. I thought i had lost you to the depths of the internet… did you die? WERE YOU RESUSCITATED!?! Oh my…
Well thanks for having me back :) I had lost all my links on Firefox. No idea how or why, but had to restart favorites. Probably would have just sounded cooler if I said I was a zombie or a ghost typing this. Oh wells. :P
lol, that sucks! I lost my bookmarks once… i killed myself. Luckily though, I came back as a zombie ghost type thing and started doing comics. Was pretty cool.
no way that bunny is gone for good. haha
Knowing Reeder… He’ll probably find another way back. What an asshole.
Dear god, the fire ate him.
Omnomnomnom! Fires gotta eat too ya know. :]
Haha, I love how you can see the fires smile in the last panel. Poor lil’ bunny D:
:D I love putting random little details such as the fire smiling (just for fun), glad you liked that! Reeder probably deserved it… more than likely, he’ll find a way back into the story.. he always seems to find a way back into my stories! >< lolThanks for the comment, I appreciate you taking the time to drop me a line. :]
From the start i liked the art in this comic. However the plot did not intrest me, so when i was reading “Sleep walkin’ no talking” i decided that the next comic would decide whether i continue reading or notand then “ffuuuuuuckkkkkkkkkk “
so not to bother u al with the details, i have decided to continue reaading
