In a pig’s eye, a pig sty, is heaven on Earth, but a porcine pilot, in his plot, sought a higher berth.
His life’s mission, a lofty ambition, was to reach into the blue.
He even took lessons, over several sessions, and you know…the swine flew!
Acually, you’re wrong - h1n1 is NOT airborne, it’s only droplet-spread. So you can put away your facemask; just don’t let anyone with the flu sneeze on you.
Format is not a big deal to me - strong characters and well-conceived humour are the big draw of the strip.
Having said that, I must say that black and white with splashes of colour, when done well, can be a visually attractive format. It would also have the advantage of making Mythtickle stand out from all of the comics that choose one or the other.

I’ve always found the problem with flying swine is not the swine themselves. If you think bird droppings are bad…

I heard that it is actually a mutual mutation of the Avian and the Swine flus. So Justin is more on the mark than ever. Well Done!
Never stand under a WingedPig’s nest without a hard hat!!

Since “swine flu” is the past tense of “pigs fly”, it seems to me that you should already have done them. So you’re late already!

And here we are at April 10, 2020, in a different pandemic and we are social distancing. None of what is going on now happened when H1N1 hit.
