  2. Wingsoverglory

    Great work Karl. Please, please tell me that you will be publishing this. =)

  3. Kenneth

    I love the carefree humor in this :D
    Angst meets Joie de Vivre :D

    i am so buying a print of this and mounting it above my drafting table.

    i’m not sure if it’s my gemini nature but i can see things from both angles. i can especially relate to it right now. oh yeah, more than ever.

    brilliant as always karl!

  5. bethany

    I’m with Ramon on this one but honestly, there are so many I love it would be really hard to choose. Needless to say, still one of my favourites!

  6. Kitsy

    Ahhh~ the life of a self-employed artist~ XD!

    Come to think of it, I’ve never seen a raccoon in person. Perhaps we’d have a lot in common if we did meet. ^_^

  7. Nyss

    Hah! That about sums it up, doesn’t it?

  8. Michael Cho

    Another hilarious effort. That last panel is just soo sweet and funny.

    Always a treat to read these, Karl!

    Karl – agree with the above comments – the cels speak for themselves . But I must interject a small quibble – poor cold Charles has been encased in snow/ice for several weeks now . I’m beginning to worry that he will come down with Terminal Hypothermia reaction . Any way you can lessen my phsycotic (sp?) fears would be appreciated. Thanks

    seriously…totally hilarious…wow…

  11. Danny

    I love your draftsmanship in dc’s comics and everything but.. you know, retire from that and do 7 cartoon strips a week please.

    Ta.

    I love the cranky birds and the thumbs up skunks and the zen raccoons and the cooking mice, so please segue away.

  13. Maso

    This particular strip should be titled ‘Zen and the Art of Being a Racoon’. Priceless…

  14. katie

    don’t you think i forgot about moon bear or vivol!

  15. sunya

    wonderful! the power of now beautifully and humorously illuminated!

  16. Robert

    GENIUS!

    This comic is absolutely amazing! I just stumbled across it this morning and I’m hooked. The art is top-notch and I love the humor of the animal dialogue vs the mysticism of the forest. I’ll be here next week for sure. Also, my webcomic is in it’s infancy stage, and I’d be honored if you visited. Thanks for making such a great comic!

  18. Vashra

    Hahaha I think I know that racoon!

  19. Gwenny

    Yeah, this is me and the old man…he’s picking his toes, and I can’t get it all done. Must be a happy medium somewhere…

  20. Matt Forsythe

    Whoa, Jamaica, nice comic!

    I second Danny’s sentiment! But you’ve heard that from me before…

  21. karl

    I’m working on it. ;)

  22. JamaicaD

    Thanks Matt! You’ve got some neat illustrations going there! Merci!

  23. Louisa

    Did I read that hint correctly, Karl? You’re thinking of focusing on self-publishing?

  24. tekno

    This is dead-on calvin and hobbes kinda feel, I swear.

  25. Kyle

    I just got a print of this for my birthday, it looks great!

  26. james

    …….. is there anything else more important to do?

  27. Ben

    Reminds me of Calvin and Hobbes
