- Sandra: Hey Woo, let’s pay a visit to Mom!
- Woo: Alright.
- Woo: Is it still a long way to go?
- Sandra: No, we’re almost there.
- Woo: I was expecting more tummy rubs and witty quips about your father, but I’m glad that we have looked in on your mother nonetheless.

lol, great work! Love the series!
This was nicely done. Thank you for this.
Ah. Well played.
The visuals of the middle pannel remind me of a very ancient video game called Aliens. The simpler map approach with dots for characters. Very matching visual.
*sobs*
Well, that explains alot.
I don’t think you’re endangering your rating with this strip. It is a good way of explaining the character’s background. Woo comes across as the kind of good friend everyone wants when revealing a sad bit about yourself. He is supportive. Keep that in mind and you can venture into topics appropriate for an older audience without alienating your current followers.
I was not thinking specifically of this strip, but of two which will be published in February.
aaawwwwwwwww
Oh. I was thinking that her parents were divorced…
Chill, I believe Woo’s supposed to have thought that aswell.
I cant think of anything else to type, since Im not really the emotional guy, I cant feel a thing. So I’ll just stop here. Keep the good in the comic.
Woo is so cute there, really nice pose and gesture.
Very nicely handled – capturing the poignancy of the moment without being overly sentimental. *applause*
lovely… my own mother passed away just a year later than sandra’s. Very touching and done with the right amount of sentimality, glad i found this comic 🙂 wonderful reading thus far.
Holy cow, it’s off by one year, but she has my birthday.
aww, she died on my birthday… =(
@scott, she died on mine too.
..She died on my birthday.. DB
I know I’m late with seeing this strip, but I have to say that this was very deep, and I really enjoyed reading it. 🙂
Not even 34.
Very sad.
I think she’d be pleased with how her daughter’s growing up.
That helps a bit.
…damn.
I did not see that coming…
… she died on my birthday
Awww… Julie North has the same birthday as me…
aww~
this comic made me sad, but in a good way *sniff* 🙂
Okay…this honestly made me tear up! :'(
why do so many people have that birthday…
D: T.T
…aw-kward…
wow, that great…First time reader and I’m loving it so far
I would have to see this comic on Mother’s Day. Now if I could only get her to answer her phone, I could wish here a happy one. =OP
;_;
This must have been asked a lot, and I am not sure if you are going to see a comment made on a four years old strip, but…
how did she died?
@ Sandstorm64:
me too
Damn. That’s heavy stuff…
Just starting this comic from the beginning, and I found this strip very sweet and touching. I do like that Sandra just… goes out and visits her mother as like a normal thing she does.
This has left me wondering what the heck happened to my father’s ashes…
… but I don’t honestly care. That was just the remains of his chassis anyway, and I ain’t sentimental about corpses.
Oh god right in the feels :,{(}
Must you make people cry?
what happened to her?
Julie North is in a better place.
Judging from the Date, which is about 3 years ago (at the time of the comic), its not long enough ago for her to have died from complications of giving birth. That said, Sandra was fairly young at the time.
Although this is a very sad comic strip, the last panel does not make sense to me. Woo says “more” tummy rubs and quips about her father, which makes it seem as though her mother died recently, and Sandra seems quite happy even though this has happened. I am sorry if I do not understand, but please tell me the story of this.
