Christmas Lights, Panel 1

Color! 🤩

Trying something different for the remainder of December by creating a comic per week using the squares on my Instragram grid. That won’t quite work here on the blog, but I’ll still be posting the three panels for each comic on Monday (or Tuesday, in this week’s case), Wednesday, and Friday, and the complete comic on Friday, as well. Check back tomorrow for the next panel and watch the comic unfold over the week!

(Crossing my fingers that this turns out the way I envision it on IG! Check it out at @labmice_am)

Inktober 2: Spider

Inktober 2: Spider

There’s a NO in “arachNOphobia.” 😬

*No mice were harmed in the making of this comic, but they may have experienced the heebie-jeebies.*

If you’re wondering why there’s suddenly a random elephant in the comic…
In the very first Lab Mice drawings (a series of doodles on a high school biology quiz), a mouse met an elephant, who panicked (“elephants are afraid of mice”) and inadvertently squished the mouse. The mouse reappeared in a body cast, the elephant apologized, and the two agreed to be friends. And then Elephant almost never appeared again. So here she is, 18 years later! Does a character count as “recurring” if she’s only seen about once every decade?

Tissues

With frequent colds and seasonal allergies, I do my part towards keeping Kleenex in business.

I also just realized that I draw popcorn and wadded-up tissues the same way. 😬

Comic from 2010, Standing on the Edge of Real Life.
