Nice callback. This strip just never ceases to amaze me. The balance of humor and heartbreak is handled so deftly that I can’t even handle it. Happy New Year, Karl, and thanks for providing a GREAT strip.
I don’t know if this has been addressed or not yet, but will there be a book, because I am wrapped up in this more than I was in GON. I simply love the story and the line work, it flows so well.
I was only just told about this strip. I can’t get over the beauty of your illustrations, Karl. The stories so far seem poignant, melancholic and at the same time, humourous. You’ve won me over big time.
I think the last frame of this awesomely quiet-but-funny scenario would make a great tongue-in-the-right-cheek New Year’s greeting card. The inside says nothing, of course. Blank cards are the best. eH.
I knew there’d be trouble (on the rabbit’s part) waking up in a tree.. But Christopher’s heart is in the right place (and his hands are waaay too big to stuff the bunny properly down a burrow, even if he could find one) – keep the bunny safe!

Hadn’t realized how much I needed a laugh until you gave me one. That was better than chocolate…

Nice one Karl! This is stinking funny! I was wondering what would happen when Charles put him up in that tree. :)

Yes, I did wonder how a rabbit gets out of a tree. I was hoping it wouldn’t be like that, though.
