Crabgrass by Tauhid Bondia for December 27, 2024

Just for once I can say this and not feel slightly inappropriate.

Who’s the sweet looking bird?

Reminds me of this chick…literally from the old movie “Rockadoodle”. Seriously underrated animated movie.

Innocent? With all the shenanigans Kevin and Miles get into I wouldn’t call them innocent.

It’s amazing to see that Jack O Lantern man.

Hope they are able to stop him.

I keep waiting for the magic doodad to tell me ‘the cow goes moo!’

What is the interdimensional country code for mythical spirit directory assistance?

Dude! Don’t declare victory until you’ve actually won!

Notice that Easter is combative, and Thanksgiving is sacrificial…

How is a Turkey Mythical?

But, it’s the 27th!!!

Now what are we gonna do about the bad brother and scheming wife?

They need their own cartoon series!

Well I never imagined Crabgrass looking anything like this. But its well done I admit.

Sometimes it works. YAY!

I’ve been following this without enjoyment because I don’t want to drop Crabgrass for one dumb arc and I don’t want to miss when it gets back on an even keel, but I gotta say, when I figured out that the turkey lady was supposed to represent the “mythical spirit” of Thanksgiving I just about cracked up! Seriously? The thing that gets EATEN the most on that day appears as an anthropoid woman with a tom turkey tail and head?

It’s the showdown of the century, baby!

Rise of the Guardians comes to mind.

the arbor day tree will save the day

Magnificent artwork!

No Uncle Sam…or maybe Captain America?…from Independence Day?

If they need back-ups I would suggest, Old man/Baby New Year, a leprechaun, two soldiers – one being a ghost, Uncle Sam, either Vulcan or Rosie the Riveter (Labor Day), and Washington and Lincoln (both were know to be good fighters.

Kevin?! INNOCENT?!…

Gotta love Santa’s hero pose, the one that Black Widow’s sister teased her about.

I think both boys are considered innocent because they’re still children. The things they do are childish not malicious or mean or vengeful.

“Innocent” is doing some heavy lifting here

One shot from cupids arrow and Krampus will fall in love with the collective spirit of goodness and giving. I would have liked to see the Abominable Snowman with a toothache. Oh but wait he’s actually real, so… heh heh.

Does anybody else here remember Dick Orkin’s The Tooth Fairy, a 1971 radio serial of 325 very short episodes, in which dental assistant Newton Snookers assumed the heroic guise of (what did you expect?) The Tooth Fairy in order to fight crime and combat evil?

This is one incredible comic strip, tour de force artwork!

Kevin is innocent…ok then…
