i personally love these little digressions from the main plot, its great logging on never knowing what your going to find in the next comic. That said i hope we get more vivol soon, starting to wonder what happened to the old guy
Karl, your work is consistently amazing. I dont think I’ve ever seen animals drawn in a natural setting that were able to express genuine emotions to me without being cartoonish. Every strip, wether a one shot like this one or part of the larger story you seem to be working on, is a delight to read!

Great job as always, Karl. Love it.

I love it :)
How do birds get the guts to make that first jump…
Anyway, your comic is my pick for the ICA’s Be My Valentine – Webcomic Plug on eben07.com this 07 Day!

Heh, almost sounds like one of those travelling motivational speakers: “Today’s your day, I can feel it… and all that lucre lining my pockets…”
Beautifully drawn as always, tres expressive!

Lol, I love the last panel. “Oh God, you don’t even know how to count!!” That’s hilarious.
February 8th, 2008 at 6:32 pm
I actually bought this panel. The timing in that last panel is gold. 9…4…
February 8th, 2008 at 7:21 pm
I actually LOLed. I never LOL.
When can I buy this is book form?!
February 8th, 2008 at 7:36 pm
I like the angle you drew from in the first panel. Looking up and seeing the birds face from that position was a great birds eye view!

Brilliant!

Awesome, as usual. These birds have become my favourite characters. I love that the young bird is called Bertrand.
February 11th, 2008 at 9:09 pm
Humor abounds!!!

NO WONDER CHARLES REMINDED ME OF TOTORO.
I just scrolled down and saw your inspirations.

If all of this will ever get published in a book, I’m sure gonna try to get it. This is hilarious!

Still reading – still loving it. This comic is just plain amazing!
February 24th, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Oh man I love this stuff. That bird counts just like my daughter does

Just classic comedy.

Ah. I begin to understand, now.
“There’s no shame in failure if no one’s around to see it.”
This attitude might explain why ‘Dad’ drinks. FreudRoach would no doubt find such a statement… “Veddy innnterresstingk…!”

What an incredible comic. As soon as I started reading this strip, my CD Pink Floyd ‘Learning to Fly’ came on.
Fit so perfectly…
