Too late, Pointyhead, Claustrophoebea has already taken a bite of it. (At first I thought it was a potato.)

If she doesn’t rest you’d think her name would be Insomnia.

: D Heeheehee… Best cat suit EVER! Marigold and Phoebe are awesome. I’m going stone skipping every opportunity I get, until I meet my own ‘best friend.’

Ahhh, Marigold is so sweet to give her a cookie even as a bad guy.

It’s a really sneakily evil attack.That cookie is full of Sugar, Cholesterol, Gluten, Nuts, Eggs, and Milk.Those things will KILL you.Eventually, even if you’re not allergic.
AdrienneMalone about 12 years ago
Yeah, all of that stuff in a cookie will kill you all right. Eating just one cookie a day will take an estimated 5 minutes off of your lifespan.

Just read the Heavenly Nostrils strip from the beginning. It’s cute. Not quite the Calvin and Hobbes it is trying to be but it’s readable.

My favorite current strip second only to maybe Calvin and Hobbes or Pearls before Swine.

First off Night, you are as cute as a bug’s ear when you use those big three letter words. Secondly, I did not put down the strip. I said it was cute and readable. It is not a stretch to compare the two strips. The have similar situations and style of humor. This particular strip has Phoebe imagining herself as a superhero…Calvin AKA Stupendousman. Again, not putting the strip down but I’m sure the artist would agree that it is greatly inspired by CandH. Now relax and just enjoy my comment for what it is and not what you imagine it to be.

I wish more bad guys would bring heroes cookies. but the REAL crime is taking the cookie back!

It just wouldn’t be possible to love this strip anymore than I do.When does the animated version come out (hopefully soon!)…I’d love to see some of the looks Marigold gives Phoebe on screen!

Ummm…..don’t all kids pretend to be superheroes? And many kids have imaginary friends. When I was a kid, it was Wonder Woman and my imaginary friend was a horse named Fury. I think both comics, as well as many others, are based on childhood dreams and imagination. Keep up the great work Dana.

I made one of these costumes for halloween. You just take 2 turtlenecks and poke your legs down the arms of one of them, and pull the turtle of the other up to your nose. A shot of silver spray paint gets the chain mail look. They’re alot warmer than most halloween gear praise the Lord.

claustrophoebea? you know what that means, right Pheobe? for those of you that do not know, it is a fear of small, inclosed spaces.

The cookie is only scary if it has raisins in it
