Bleeb must be hiding out today.

Don’t ask about the fudgesicles!

What? No ant flavored?

TWO DOLLARS!? Highway robbery!

Man, why don’t they ever have cicada?

Just like mother used to upchuck!

Flavor number 4. Bugs…….. often mistaken as aliens, or more like vice versa. Bleeb would look down in shame to be referred as a bug.I can see why he would have abandoned us for a quick trip back to zorkon.

Don’t forget to buy one for your little sister.

Umm no thanks. I’ll stick with the ice pops

Just like mother used to make.

Okay. Just a small ..gag…today.

This strip gave me a chill.

BLEEEEEEEB!

ᴡʜᴀᴛ!

Where have you been?… you had a scene to shoot with these birds… and the uh, well these… “bird treats”?

Are we doing this again?!

When watching the mother bird jam food down a chick’s throat I shudder to think of a popsicle.

Some comics should not be read while eating.

Birds might find our way of feeding our young repulsive too.

Not what you want to read while eating…
