Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
As far as I know, I’ve been through three pairs of eye glasses: fifth grade, after high school, and then some few years after that. Reasons: didn’t wear them that much, I think broke, and new prescription.
I have three different pairs with my current prescription, four if you count sunglasses! I just like glasses. And you can get them cheap on the internet these days.
I had Lasik and while the results are quite pleasing, the procedure and recovery were a freaking nightmare I would not wish upon anyone but my worst enemies. (Ha ha! That was over a decade ago, and my heart’s pounding just thinking about it!)
I get by with plain old reading glasses (only need them for close up things), but I buy them like some people buy cheap pens. (and these are only about $4 a pair so they are like cheap pens in a very literal sense)
I had to go way back to find a strip with Max’s old spectacles (searching randomly), but here’s one:.http://www.gocomics.com/phoebe-and-her-unicorn/2012/12/01

No one has ever said anything, but Max is on his second pair of glasses since the strip started.

Not bad Phoebe. Max’s eyes look short when his glasses came off.

Or is being bullied by someone. (The real reason is, I just started wanting to draw them differently.)

Hi Dana! I wanted to tell you that I loved today’s Ozy and Millie! I’m going to print it out and paste it somewhere in my office. :)

Why is it that in comics, when bespectacled people remove their glasses, their eyes are always tiny dots? Is it a mutation, perhaps?
