    Tina has a bit of a surprised look, maybe it’s news to her.

    Yeah, that should be “passed”.

    Here’s a link to an early animation of this strip: http://gocomics.typepad.com/editors/2009/07/in-the-sticks-beta-animation-.html

    Whatta ya think of Cosmo’s voice?

    That voice makes me think of Tweetie Bird when he drank the Mr. Hyde formula. (Watch out Dewey, Cosmo might be hungry!)

    And the drawing style compliments the punch lines very well, don’t forget.

    I can’t believe there’s already an animation test. Cool! I like Del’s voice, but I don’t think Cosmo’s works. Don’t get me wrong, the performance is great, it’s just that it’s too far against type. It reminds me of the birds in Dumbo (which, for obvious reasons, I don’t think work either).

    Really enjoy the strip. I like the editorial comments. Would not want to watch the animation with Cosmo’s voice so deep and gravelly.

    Hmm, nope. Gotta say - neither of those voices…! :o)

    Wow, you could have a lot of fun trying to find voices that suit. Of course, it would be different for everybody! xD

    i love the strip but also think the voices on the animations don’t fit quite right. I think a deep voice for cosmo COULD work if he’s going for the outside tough bird and inner softy…but not that voice, it reminds me of the penguins of madagascar. I would also have Del with a higher pitched voice ..something more young and and funny to the ear. I liked the link tho :)
