You can tell someone has artistic chops when they're doing something that's successful, very intentional, and yet completely weird. I'm talking about the comic artist, not the kid inside the comic lol

Is this in reference to the eyes? I rapid-fired through the stages of grief looking at them before landing on "It's neat. They look weird but the artist makes it work"

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

Yep, the eyes are deliberately weird but they work

I didn't get it.

Then after adjusting my old eyes, I realized she didn't say "clocks".

Most people dream in color, but extraFabulousComics dreams in cotton candy.

I would like to meet this Private.

That N64 controller will give you unrealistic body standards.

Even more hilarious when you realize that the veteran has only one leg in the drawing. Edit: Well excuse me for thinking that the punchline was that the son had just pivoted to drawing really depressing topics garnering the reaction from the parents.

Congratulation on your reading skills.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

What else was hilarious about it?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

The shockingly large penis of the one-legged man.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Technically you're correct, and I wish I could agree. However, the line "I'm so glad our son has moved away from drawing huge cocks" was already pretty great.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Man I did not get this joke at all before reading this lmao

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thats how i read it dude. Your edit made me see what the artist was going for, thank you.
