Andrew, your art and style is so versatile yet your storytelling is always impeccable. You blow me away, man. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, you are a creator who shows us all what comics are truly capable of.
I was so scared for that poor squid. Thanks for the happy ending.

Andrew, this is the most heartwarming comic in the universe. You have made my otherwise chilly, quiet night sparkle and tingle with warmth and giggles. Thank you.

Nick — Yeah, I was trying out another style, and the ending took a while to figure out, hehe. I’m so glad you liked it! It means a lot, coming from a fellow creator. :D
Kibblesmith — A million thanks!
iangil — You’re welcome, sir! There’s more to come, and I’m glad this brought a little warmth your way! Thank you for reading! :)

Fan frickin’ tastic. I got here by way of First Draft, and I hyped it on my LJ. Very nice work.

I saw this mentioned on Pharyngula. PZ was right–it’s a heartwarming story. I love the squid. :-)

Andrew: Cute. And more than a little absurd, in a delightful way. The idea of the dog and cat hugging the squid in the rain… I don’t know why, but it makes me smile a lot. Well done, sir!
