here is hoping the rude awakening is him jumping on sandra’s father, asking him nicely to stop snoring, and him passing it off as a strange dream in the morning.
@ Kat:
I’m pretty sure it’s three. We’re seeing the top two and the bottom row is resting in Woo’s palm, so it’s hidden by his hands. At least that’s how I see it.
Good on ya. I was honestly thinking of editing my post to include this. When the entire comic is about how to deal with tragedy then that is perfectly fine.
While you may have a point about how not to judge early, the premise of adding a random tragic event, whatever it may be, to an otherwise harmless and comical webcomic is flawed. Sure it can be done with accepted results, but that does not account for throwing your readers for bad loop. Imagine reading 10 years of Garfield only for one strip to come in and have Odie get hit by a bus, or have Jon get mugged and beaten unconscious. Yes, these things do happen in real life, but readers jump to Garfield for the very reason that it’s fun and harmless. Imagine someone with a life so horrible that they want to read something they know is silly and happy, only to get hit by a comic where Garfield gets cancer.
That feeling of ‘I cooked dinner, but did I remember to turn off the oven?’
“Wait a second–raccoons can’t solve Rubik’s Cubes! I’ve been deluding myself this whole time!”
(Incidentally, is it a colorblind-friendly Rubik’s Cube?)
“by the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes”

the real Rude Awakening:
“DID I JUST SPEND AN EVENING SOLVING A TWO-LAYER RUBIK’S CUBE?”
CAN you FEEL the DOOM inBOUND?

There’s been an Awakening; have you felt it?
I stood up all night trying to solve an all white sided rubi cube.
