Getting Warmer

Don't worry...
No characters were hurt during the making of this comic strip.

Those are styrofoam "pool noodles" that they're beating Cody with.
After seeing this, my daughter is begging me to let her do that at her next birthday party.

*groan* I can only guess who'll be marked with the "Wings of Shame".

Oh, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

To celebrate the New Year, this is the final strip in this story arc! (Finally!)

All new stuff next year! Stay tuned! ;)

This week's comic strip.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, everyone!
For that matter... Happy Anything You Happen To Be Celebrating! ;)

If you want to take the time to give the little birds and squirrels in your yard a year-end treat like Cody and Navarre just did, it's simple!

Find some opened up pine cones, slather them with peanut butter, and then roll them in bird seed! Hang them from a tree in your backyard with some string, and watch the locals enjoy!

This week's comic strip.

Rotten Egg

Take one for the team, Cody...

This week's comic strip.

Moonlight Marinade

Night swims are cool. I love swimming at night.

This week's comic strip.

Otter Under the Collar

Yeah, that would make me cranky as well.

Having the thing you naturally want the most right in front of you, and you can't enjoy it yourself. Instead, you watch others use it... even teach them how.

This week's comic strip.

My Little Turkey

Have a great Thanksgiving, Everyone!
Thanks for putting up with my weirdness and taking time to read the comic,
it's been a blast! ;)

Looks like Punkin Pie and Twilight Gobble have their Thanksgiving dinner plans set.
Hope you enjoy yours!

Make sure the sofa is clear for those tryptophan fueled naps.

This week's comic strip.

Issue Box

You know those parents...
The ones who did something all their life and then teach their kids it's wrong to do... or never did what they insist their kids do.
Yeah, you know them... we all had them... or are them.

And through all that bickering, all Cody heard was that... she likes him.


This week's comic strip.

Let's Get Dangerous

...and for those of you who don't know who Darkwing Duck is.
He is the terror that flaps in the night!

Don't get me wrong, I dig D.D., but with all that purple and big floppy hat, sometimes he reminds me of a diva hiding from the paparazzi.

This week's comic strip.

Stop on a Dime

...too bad the dime was in his pocket.

I always liked the Karmen Ghia, thought it was a cool car. Brittany's mom gets to drive a cool car.

This week's comic strip.

Pup-Tent of Terror!

Nobody escapes The Slasher! The budget slasher that is...

Happy Halloween, everyone!

Icing Queen

Is it possible? Did Pepper just show a hint of sympathy there?
It doesn't come without payment. Hand over the cinnamon roll...


This week's comic.

Lost in the Loud

Sometimes you just have to speak up!

This week's comic strip.

Truth be Told

Ms Rivers made it very clear at the beginning of camp.
"Under no circumstances...!"

Cody seems ready to take the blame, but she won't have it...

This week's comic strip.

Busy, busy, busy!

Sorry Folks,

There is no comic this week. -Cue frowny face- :(

I've been working on some commission work (no nothing comic-wise) and it's taken much more of my time than anticipated.

Should be back on track next week, with the next thrilling part of Brittany's emotional cliff-hanger. Dun-dun-DUNNN!!!

On some good news, I've acquired a new domain name and hosting for the site, and will begin creating a better, faster, stronger home for the comic! Woohoo!

Til then, make sure those camp-fires are out and pick up your litter!

Jason

Soul Search

Cody found what he was looking for.
I wonder if Brittany will be so lucky...

This week's comic strip.

Wampum Leap

Yeah, yeah, I know...
Wampum is beads and money, but it rhymed nicely with "quantum". :P

Hopefully Walker remembered to port their bags 'n' stuff too.

This week's comic strip.

DragonConvalescent

Sorry, Folks...

...but between DragonCon and my allergies kicking in, I've barely been awake enough to do anything.

Oh, did I forget to mention? I went to DragonCon. Not promoting the comic, but just there for fun. ...and fun I had!

Learned some cool stuff, met some great people, and picked up some awesome books and even a couple of Thundercats action figures. (And yes, I take them out of the packages. Toys are meant to be played with!)

And a big congratulations to Jenny and Obby over at The Devil's Panties!
Obby proposed during her annual kilt blowing event!

This week's excuse for a comic...

Got a Brand New Bag

Looks like Cody's new purse, err... medicine bag, will go nicely with his mostly earth-tones wardrobe.

This week's comic strip.

Good Grief

Navarre quickly... very quickly... works his way through the usual stages of grief.

This week's comic strip.

Daddy Issues

The gene pool may have gotten deeper, but the life-guard on duty isn't going to let anyone swim.

This week's comic strip.

Over Developed

Even inter-species genetic birth control isn't 100% effective.

This week's comic strip.

Tree Buggers

Graceful, isn't he?

This week's comic strip.

Rock, Drop and Roll

Don't you hate it when the person you're trying to kill, tries to save your life? It just... complicates things.

At least Walker has a new centerpiece in his steam pool now.

This week's comic.

Washed Up

They're not out of the water yet!

This week's comic strip.

The Farce is Strong in This One

The showdown between Navarre and Pickles (with Rocko and Socko) is finally here!

You Star Wars fans will see why I couldn't break this one up...

Where's a John Williams score when you need one?!

P.S.: Rest in peace Socko... *sniff*

This week's comic strip.

Slowed Down Showdown

We are late again this week, but it's for all the right reasons.

The holidays, been doing a large painting for the local comic shop, and more importantly... the next comic is going to be HUGE! Four times the usual size and filled with action! I think you'll enjoy it. ;)

Until then, here's a little teaser of it in the works.

See you next Friday! Bring popcorn!

This week's comic.

Making a Splash

Gee... how many times is Navarre going to be startled this week?

This week's comic strip.

Missing in Action

Is the teacher learning from the student?

This week's comic strip.

Puck it

Sorry, but this week's strip is going to be a few days late.

Between the Stanley Cup, family time, and my own *ahem* laziness *ahem*...
I didn't get much done.

Looks like most of the gang here were Bruins fans.
I was pulling for Vancouver, but Boston played a great series.
CONGRATS, BOSTON! You guys earned it.

See you soon with a continuation of Cody and Brittany in the Hot Springs!

Naked Truth

Carl really did tell Cody that, waaaay back here.

This week's comic strip.

Steamed

Teenage Boy "Oblivious Maximus"

Admit it guys... when we come up with a great and considerate idea for our girlfriends, it's often too late and we get labeled INconsiderate.

It's not as though we're not thinking about you and what you would like. We just tend to miss a few beats before hand.

This week's comic strip.

Hot and Bothered

I've always wanted to soak in a natural hot spring... like those Japanese monkeys.

This week's comic strip.

Fixin' a Hole

In a hole in the ground there lived a hobb... wait a sec'... wrong story.

Our world developed sciences dedicated to comfort and making life easier. Something as far removed to Walker as his sciences were to us. Seeing them unfold over the centuries, he's developed his own appreciation for them.

The cave is still home, but he may as well make it more comfortable.

This week's comic strip.

Deity or Didn't He?

Walker would like to make something very clear...

This week's comic strip.

Full Body Scan

Every now and then, Walker reminds them that he's more than just the town drunk.

Sorry about it being late.

This week's comic strip.

Strip Tease

I have had Jewish friends that would make an exception for bacon.
I have had vegetarian friends that would make an exception for bacon.
Bacon can bring the world together.

The Beatles said it best. "All we need is love... and bacon."
(That was the original version of the song but they couldn't come up with a good rhyme. True story...)

This week's comic strip.

No Fly Zone

Looks like Walker's brother still has issues to work out. Being stuck in the form of an eagle for a few hundred years will do that to a guy.

I wonder what the trans-dimensional library late fees will amount to?


This week's comic strip.

Heap Big Stereotype

Looks like Walker has been back to our world and brought back a few comforts.
(I've had Elk jerky before, but not bar-b-que. I would imagine it could be rather tasty.)

If you enjoyed last week's "Montage" strip, there are desktop wallpapers made from it, available in five different screen sizes! They can be found at the "Babe in the Woods" Facebook page. (You don't have to be a member to download them.)

This week's comic strip.

We Need a Montage

When you need to cut down your travel time, you need a montage.

Sorry for it being late again, but all those multiple person poses took longer than expected. Probably the most involved strip for the comic to date!

This week's comic strip.

S'moke Signal

S'mores are probably not the best snack for inter-dimensional travel.
But then again... what would be?

This week's comic strip.

Ride the Lightning

Vulpis, Anonymous,
You didn't really think I'd kill these guys off so easily did you? I like 'em too much.
They're my Rosencrants & Guildenstern. (Who got that reference?)

If that last frame looks familiar, it's because we've been here before. In fact, it was the first frame of the comic going to full time color.

This week's comic strip.

Oh dear, I'm late, I'm LATE!

Yup, in case you haven't noticed, we're running late this week. A new comic should be posted this Saturday.

If you haven't been by there yet, check out the "Babe in the Woods" fan page on FaceBook. Along with updates to the comic, there's also artwork and sketches not seen here on the main site.
You can also follow me on Twitter for regular news!

See you back here really soon!

Snack Attack

They may not have had time to get roadtrip snacks, but it looks like Andy (the Uktena) found something to munch on.

Did you know that there's a "Babe in the Woods" FaceBook page? You didn't? (Not surprising) Well, come on over and give us a "Like", and you'll be kept up to date on the latest stuff in the park, as well as some bonus features.

This week's comic strip.

ROADTRIP!

Ah, the roadtrip...
An age-old tradition of bonding between buddies.
(and getting lost/stranded in impossible places)

No time to stock up on road-snacks, but I'm sure Navarre has some acorns or pecans stashed nearby.

This week's comic strip.

Chicken Wingman

Brittany has now had her fear of both monsters reduced.
She should still mind her mother, though. Navarre is still the larger threat of the two.

This week's comic strip.

Invitations Have Been Passed Out

What do you do when a god asks for your help? Will Cody answer the call?

What do you do when your best friend faints in front of the girl you like?
You are honor bound to humiliate him. It's guy law...

This week's comic strip.

A Gift... From Me to Ewwww

I wouldn't want to stand near that, let alone pick it up.

Is it weird that while I was drawing this, my cat yakked just like that, next to my desk? Maybe he was trying to model for me...

This week's comic strip.

Fists of Furry

There's a hero in all of us. Even the smallest and goofiest of us.

So, who's gonna win this fight?

This week's comic strip.

Fireside Scat

How is he ever going to get those kids back in the water now?

This isn't the first time Cody has encountered the Uktena.
Take a look back if you want a refresher.

This week's comic strip.

Mommy Fearest

They say, if you look in the mirror and say his name three times...

Oh dear... is Cody going to suffer from his buddy's reputation?
A little guilt by association?

This week's comic strip.

Dropped Call

Do you think anyone will believe her?

This week's comic strip.

I Grock Sock

A sock on the hand is worth two nuts in a bush...

Pickles and Socko seem set on their vendetta against Cody, but Rocko seems to be having warmer thoughts about the girl-who-gives-peanuts.

Here's a rough translation:
"Squeak squeak!"
"Squeaky?"
"SQUEEE!"
"Squeak skee-keek!"

(If you still don't understand, run it through Babelfish.)

This week's comic strip.

Been there, Booya-ed that...

Is Cody sweating because he knows who Brittany is talking about,
or because of the effect a pretty girl's casual touch has on a guy?

Don't girls realize the effects they have on us?!
(Yeah, actually they do realize it.)

For those of you who don't recall our favorite rodents who are keeping a close eye on Cody...
He first ran into them back in Squirreltown.

Later, Cody became puzzled about the peanut shells in the bathroom,
when he was assigned to latrine duty at Summer Camp.

You didn't think there was going to be a quiz on all of this, did you? Hmmm...?
