- Sandra: You’ve never been out of town before, have you? Let’s go for a walk to the forest!
- Woo: Do we have to? I’d rather lie in the sun all day.
- Woo: I still don’t see what’s supposed to be so great about the forest. The trees in our garden are just fine.
- Sandra: You’ll see soon enough…
- Woo: Wow!

Totally a fan of this 🙂 Keep up the lovely work.
“Sandra: You’ve never been out of town before, were you?”
should be:
“Sandra: You’ve never been out of town before, have you?”
Keep up the good work!
Fixed.
O well, I guess the one or other grammatical error in complicated sentences will always be inevitable since neither me nor Powree is a native speaker.
Love it, has a very cute and amusing appeal to it,
Look forward to more
The only potentially negative thing I noticed was yet another throwback to Calvin and Hobbes with Woo wanting to lie on that tree branch. The pose and attitude screamed ‘Hobbes.’ But the last panel made up for it pretty nicely. :3
Him lying there I’d rather think of a certain cat….also his attitude to getting up and out. Still, this comic seems rather unique, and sometimes it’s just bound to have similar situations at some points to other comics, since there’s to many of them 🙂 just matters, at which you look, you’ll always find some points if you look.
Oh, and btw – love it so far 🙂
@ Novil:
I have seen people who ARE native speakers still make mistakes. Not that big of a deal. Although I keep thinking “lie” is wrong, it’s still cool.
i love how woo is drawn in the second panel, it kind of reminds me of something
@ theperson10:
Strange thing about small people: sometimes they have bad grammar.
@ Gordon:
What you might be thinking of is one of Calvin’s stances when he argues and rants about something in ‘Calvin and Hobbies’.
Just discovered this comic via an ad on Hark! A Vagrant. Fantastic. But I wish people would stop complaining about Calvin and Hobbes similarities and references- They’re both brilliant comics about kid and slightly odd, talking pet (/combination of soft toy and imagination in the case of Calvin) of course they’re gonna be bloody similar!
Wow. nice work on the landscape. Wish I was as good.
… Doesn’t “forest” usually imply more trees and less bare mountain?
this comic is the same as a conversation I had with my dad when I was 12…. only instead of lying in the sun, I wanted to play video games.

Only if one can’t see the forest for the (lack of) trees?
One autumn day when I was about 3 years old my parents brought me into the woods for a walk. It was the first time I had ever seen trees all together instead of just here and there along the side of the street. My reaction was just like Woo’s … it blew my mind and I couldnt think about anything else. I still had pleasant dreams about that area of woods into my early 20’s.
Riiiiicolaaaaa!!
The resemblance can’t be a coincidence, can it? http://ozyandmillie.org/1999/08/25/ozy-and-millie-206/
Its even more amazing racing down that hill on an out-of-control red handwagon.
