I appreciate the license plates.

When I was done reading the comic, this is exactly the image I had in mind! Good thing I'm not the only pessimist around, I love it.

His blood put out the fire

Not as dark as I was expecting. Marley's mother seems genuinely supportive.

When she inevitably cheats on Tom with Charlene, I think we'll all have seen it coming.

It says prevent, not extinguish. Sorry. Nevertheless I appreciate the effort. :)

At least do it outside or you'll get blood on the carpet.

The kid had his chance.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

The way I was able to ration it out is that the kid is heading for an unextinquished (or maybe an in use, idk) campfire to put it out before it becomes a forest fire.

Prevent it from spreading any further I guess.

I like the art! I had a laugh when I got to the 4th panel and then another when I realized the bear had a bong for some reason in the 1st panel :D
