Guest Strip today by Chloe Parsell
My 8 year old daughter created today’s strip, and I kid you not, without any prompting or direction from me. This was solely her idea, and she executed it all on her own. I love how in its own weird internal logic, it’s a complete idea. Who would’ve guessed creating comics could be carried down through the genes?
It’s a little hard to read the dialogue so I’ll transcribe the text for you:
Frame 1: Man: H’m I wonder where my Dad is?
Frame 2: Man: Oh there my Dad is.
Frame 3: Dad: What are you looking at?
Man: Nothing.
Frame 4: Man: Sorry Dad.
Frame 5: Dad: Ahhhh… (after being stepped on by Man.)
Frame 6: The End.
I love this strip but I had to ask Chloe who the Dad in the strip was, she replied,
“You.”
“Why am I getting squashed by the huge man?”
“Sorry.”
I either have a comic genius for a daughter or I see huge therapy bills in my future.
