Fireflies
Oh that Sasquatch! He’s always on the lookout for a good meal, especially a free one! He also has the added perk of no longer needing a flashlight when he goes outside! That is, until his stomach acids dissolve those pretty little fireflies…
Today’s comic is just a goofy cute thing I felt like doing. It’s been a while since I got to do a Sasquatch strip and I like including him when I can, he’s such a fun character to draw!
I hope everyone living in seasonal areas is enjoying these last lovely summer nights before we dip into the colder months. Take a step outside late at night, breathe that fresh air and watch the fireflies dance. You don’t have to eat them to enjoy them!
Sadly, no fireflies here. : (
Oh my!
Sasquatch will definitely have a tummy ache!
Talk about butterflies in one’s stomach!
I sadly haven’t seen any fireflies, I think it’s been too hot for them.
It occurs to me that this is one of the rare strips that would work without any dialogue at all; it might even work better.
Where ARE Lil K’s glasses?!
haha He’s probably like me! I can’t see in the dark with my glasses on for some reason. My eyesight isn’t so bad that I can’t see without them, but I definitely can’t see with them on at night!
I know what you mean, I think (am least with my glasses), is that it’s the UV filtering and the photo-chromatic (aka “Transition”) on the lenses.
The most dominate color at night is blue/purple, and I’ve noticed that my lenses (due to the UV coating) do indeed block some of the blues and purples. During the day it isn’t as noticeable.
It also could be that without the glasses your eyes work harder to process light, so at night this allows our eye to process more light coming from the scene.
Then again those are just my theories, knowing the usual commenters, I’m sure someone knows for sure!
Wow, I didn’t notice that!
I thought something was off about K, I just couldn’t think of what it was!
To me it looks like the art has changed slightly.
K looks weird without glasses.
Alas, peak Fireflies was in June around here in Ohio, but the are rather fun to just sit out and watch. Especially if the mosquitoes aren’t out.
Right now we’re starting to get into yellow jacket season. Not near as fun as fireflies. Keep your sweet beverages covered!
The lake i work at as a lifeguard has gotten so many bees flying around in the evening that unless your drink has a lid you need to check to see if there is a bee in it before drinking. It was a very disappointing last swallow of mountain dew when i felt one and spat all of it out.
Where’d his net go?
Oy!
Hallo Calypso!
…
He might just be on NET (N-Ethyltryptamine)
.. which would explain why
A) Why he is seeing “fireflies”.
B) Why he sees Sasquatch.
C) His NET “magically” disappears.
D) He isn’t wearing his glasses.
E) Why there is something different about his style
Ok, really I was just trying to come up with a alternative definition of “NET”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NET
and found the “N-Ethyltryptamine”
Wikipedia is fun sometimes.
Oh, Scott (@K) I’m totally saying K is on something…
:sarcasm:
Never seen any fireflies. Though I live in Sweden so no mystery there. Wish I might some time though, they seem pretty cool 🙂
They’re kinda an “expectations versus reality” sorta thing.
Have been depressed lately. Your comic and message bring a smile to my face, though. Thank you very much.
The more you stare the more you smile!
Looks like Sas just drank the emperor….
