Four panel comic. Panel 1: a grey alien emerges from its UFO in front of a crowd of people standing below. The alien says, “earthlings… surrender now… we are—“ Panel 2: the first alien is interrupted by a second, different species of squid-like alien emerging from its ship. The second alien says, “humans! Prepare for—“ Panel 3: the two aliens quickly notice each other, looking surprised. Panel 4: the two aliens are laughing hysterically with their arms around each other amicably, each pointing to the other in a joking manner. This is the third time this has happened. A small group of onlooking humans stand behind them uncomfortably.

Not likely

Three panel comic. Panel 1: two friends sit at a table in a cafe. One of the women is reading a magazine. Her friend says teasingly, “you read that horoscope baloney? Lemme see.” Panel 2: the friend looks at her horoscope page, which reads, “LIBRA: You will be eaten by a large carnivorous plant.” Panel 3: the friend looks amused and befuddled. She chuckles, “heh…” Behind her, an enormous alien-looking carnivorous plant the size of a large bathtub is being wagoned into the cafe by a straining workman.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: two hyenas are sitting in a classroom of various wild animal students. Their teacher, a gazelle, is standing next to a lion cub who is giving a presentation. The teacher snaps at the two hyenas, “boys! Stop laughing or I’ll separate you.” Panel 2: “continue, Jessica,” says the teacher off panel. One of the hyenas, stifling laughter, peeks out from under his hand at the other hyena. Panel 3: the other hyena is staring directly at him with an uncanny seriousness. The first hyena can’t contain his laughter.

This is one of those instances where I knew from minute one exactly how I wanted to dub this one. Beetle moses is a vibe and we are all just trying to catch it.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: an old man lies in a hospice bed, glancing out the window as day breaks. There is a woman asleep on a small couch next to him. The man thinks to himself, “dang, that was stressful. Wouldn’t mind a chill one next time.” Panel 2: the cycle of death and rebirth continues on, represented by the samsara wheel of life, along with splash text which reads: REINCARNATE-O! Panel 3: a solitary duck swims peacefully along the water. It thinks to itself, “nice”

Three panel comic. Panel 1: two friends are playing cards. There is a birdcage hanging behind them, just peaking out of frame. Friend 1 asks, “does your bird talk?” To which friend 2 replies, “Please… don’t.” Panel 2: friend 2 continues, head in hand, “he’s on this alpha male influencer thing right now.” Behind him, the bird - posed and wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket - is leaning forward on a tiny easy chair in his enclosure. Panel 3: with his hands clasped, easing back into his chair, the bird says, “stops eating seeds. Focus on your net worth.”

Two panel comic. Panel 1: a human backpacker kneels before a family of orangutans. They are exchanging a gentle handshake of sorts so that the human may supplicate himself to the chief orangutan. Journal entry text reads: “Week 4: I am accepted into the tribe.” Panel 2: journal entry: “Week 5: I introduce the tribe to 2012-13 Lebron highlights.” The human is holding his phone horizontally, displaying a YouTube compilation of LeBron James highlights from his legendary season with the Miami Heat. The orangutans are gathered closely around the phone, watching excitedly.

Two panel comic. Panel 1: a guy wearing glasses, a backwards flat rim hat, and a graphic t-shirt featuring an image of Ne-Yo (the singer) is holding a vape and appears to be holding in his breath. He says with his hands raised presentationally, “ok now check this:” Panel 2: the guy is blowing fat O’s through each other in a crazy smoke trick. Seated in a circle around him are elder aliens with long wizard-like beards and mysterious sparkling robes, each as tall as a house. The elders are all completely enraptured with the performance of the vape trick guy.

Over a year ago, a Dutch frog science magazine emailed me asking if they could include my comic in their upcoming issue about dart frogs. They were interviewing the scientist who first described the blue poison dart frog; he had seen and liked the comic. They mailed me a copy, which just arrived:
