Fantastic! The new pictures (I think?) sell that last panel.

I often laugh at my husband's fear. Surely that's the whole reason for having a spouse?

December 21, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMetey

Funny! My concern would be the birds are not toilet trained.

December 21, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterKrisL

Haw Haw! I cracked up with the 2nd frame!

December 21, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterCalvin

Yeah... you've accurately captured my personal fear, and the day that my fiancée found out about it....

"Well see if you feel that way after I've said it hundreds of times" was an amazing line.

December 21, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterACF

I totally dig this one! The conversation, the expressions, the winged terror; all of it.

I will recommend this comic to everyone a hundred times until they read it or beat me with a hammer. Equally likely outcomes, frankly.

Very funny one... but you should consider a divorce, man, your wife is a total bitch!

Good God, this comic is amazing! Holy crack monkeys, that last panel had me laughing so hard I started crying.

"That's the least convincing thing you've ever said" just entered my regular snark-line rotation. So many uses, so little time. Excellent.

I've done that! It's super-fun; the birds are all tickly! :D

I think I've SEEN the photo you drew that (you, covered in tiny birds) from! I guess it was only a matter of time before you had to finally steal ideas from Missy's photo-dumps. Love it. LOVE IT!

Missy looks lovely in the last panel. You, sir, are a very lucky man. Come to think of it, my wife also looks ravishing when she's laughing at me.

Why do they have songbirds at Gatorland? Kinda ruins the whole atmosphere. It'd be like having a Chucky doll at the Barbie & Ken store. Seems wrong.

I am also enjoying your fear!

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMatchstickman

Fantastic comic! The last panel is awesome...still chuckling to myself!

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterGRRRR

Fear tastes like sweet sweet nectar, and of course thats what birds eat. Duh.

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMortenGreen

Good thing none of them plucked your eye out like a grape...

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterPatrick

Is there a subtle reference to the movie Barbarella in there? One of the execution methods in that movie was to be pecked to death by hundreds of tiny songbirds...

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterSnowdropExplodes

Are they also singing about your fear? Defecating on your shoulder (with fear in that sentence obviously)?

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterInnominate

This wouldn't happen to be in Bodega Bay would it and owned by a A. Hitchcock?

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterJimBob

I think you have just found your newest super hero Angry Bird man think of the possibilities !!!

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterAJ

Ha, the whole strip is, as always, priceless but particularly panels 3 & 4.
But why worry about teeny little alligators? Come to Australia, where we have crocs that will pick their teeth with a gator. After having eaten a full-grown shark.

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterRK

I've had reactions much like the last panel before, but never with birds. The dialogue is GREAT!

Also, mmm, Gatorland. On a slightly related note, if you ever get a chance to try deep-fried gator tail, it's fairly yummy if cooked properly.

December 22, 2010 | Unregistered CommenterMary

Before I read the dialog on panel four I thought it was something about pirate overkill and that's what had Missy yelling.
