It’s the incredible shrinking Todd! XD

Fan Art update today! I received three pieces of fan art courtesy of Anna Rodman:
Thank you Anna!
Today's edition of the Secret Commentary is empty, because Dave failed to come up with something for it.
I think we have seen young todd before. I look foreward to seeing what the whole break up was about. Or even see her face. Keep up the good work.

No matter how old you get, your parents can always make you feel like a little kid all over again.
I couldn’t have put that better myself.
Soooooo true! I can definitely relate to “the increadible shrinking Todd”.
I am 6′ 2” tall… my mother is 5′ 3″… and the moment she gets angry, I feel about two inches tall and about ten years younger.
Totally relate to this…
kudos on the fan-art subs. impressive work for an impressive comic~
Also, overbearing stuff could be terrible, even if I agree with them…
Lacking unsaid commentary for the comic, I instead offer dialogue for the third fanart (assuming, for the sake of this, that Selkie can speak underwater).
Selkie: Dads, looks what Is founds! Its was delicious!
Todd: Blub.
Dialogue for the second fan art:
Selkie: “Gos aways, stupid kitty!”
Crook: (thinking) “Yummie… two fishies.”
Not after the first time. XD
I am 55 and my mother is 78. She part of her willalways see me as a little kid. My niece is 30 with two children of her own. Part of me still views her as a kid
Best strip ever, even without Selkie!
Great fan art. You had me fooled at first, and I was gonna comment how Todd looked like a kid but then I saw it was on purpose by the third panel LOL. Great!
Nice cat. “Oh, that’s a great fish! Are you going to eat all of it?”
I think it was the perfect way to show how Todd was feeling.. 🙂
I loved how Todd shrank, it was pretty ingenious. -agrees with Michie-
Got some pretty awesome fanart today. (I like the 3rd one best.)
Priceless!. No matter how old you get your parents have The Power to reduce you to a five year old
Re: the fan art
Has Selkie had a chance to go swimming in the ocean since she was left at the orphanage? Will we get to see her swim? Hunt her own food? Join swim team and break world records? Take her SCUBA qualification course and say “Yucks! Don’t needs thems” when they give her a regulator and dive tables?
Swim team? Unlikely. They swim in pools, don´t they? “Sink waters” hurts Selkie, apparently because it´s chlorinated, and pools are more strongly chlorinated than tap water.
good comic, love the fanart,
intrigued overall
Huh, if you notice, he shrunk at the first panel too, before he looked like a kid in the second and third ones (had to go back a few pages and compare how he was always around their height in the past few pages when they were all sitting together) So that means the feeling like a kid thing began at the end of the last page…
That or he’s just sinking back more into his seat…I tend to do that a lot.
It was a nice touch how he slowly became more kid-like. That was a stroke of genius.
Hee hee. I love little Todd’s dino shirt. 🙂
Haha it’s like Selkie’s Dino dress ^^
Parents and siblings have an uncanny power to magically revert one to a six-year-old.
Now this is putting a bit of pressure on the fourth wall. “Close the chapter”, indeed.
Oh is chapter 2 almost over?
Very clever way of showing that the character feels like he’s being reduced to a child. Took me a minute to get that.
