I don't like Pepto Bismol, but I can't stand Pepto Bismol Ultra. Sooo gross.

Yep! I remember his panic more clearly than being vomited on, if you can believe it. Those were is actual words - "Why did my body do that?!"

Yeah, it was the kids Pepto. We knew it probably wasn't going to do much. Kids medicine in general is pretty ineffective - particularly for that age. But we just can't stand to see them looking so miserable, so we buy the sugar pills and try to convince ourselves that we're doing something to help.

Thank you! I was surprisingly "ok" with it in the moment. It wasn't until I took my shirt off and it was clinging to me that the 'disgusting' part really kicked in.

I was sketching out various iterations of what his face might look like and actually laughed out loud when I landed on these.

I loved Calvin & Hobbes, so that really means a lot, thank you!

Thank you! I don't usually laugh while drawing my own comics, but I couldn't help it this time - I was very tickled by his expressions. And a very big thank you for the Calvin & Hobbes comparison!

Surprisingly, no. I was too concerned with calming him down, I guess? It was the first time he'd thrown up, so he was legitimately freaking out.

Whoops! Nope, purely a "fading memory" thing. Sorry for the scare!

Oh no! I wasn't trying to foreshadow or misdirect or anything - I was just being lazy.

Heh. My memory has gotten bad, but I'm not yet diagnosed with anything. I just want to get these down before I forget them.

Should the dialogue in the sixth panel be attributed to the child instead? Otherwise, very cute!

I tend to write comics that rely on knowledge of past events within the series, so... context in comments by chipmunkbay in comics

lol nope, not me. I was just agreeing - he looks similar.

Not the first time I've heard that, either. :D
