I thought this was going to be another Scaredy Story.   :'(
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

This is really nice.  The dog-facial-expressions are seriously spot on.

Thanks guys! I'm super relieved that people liked it - I always feel nervous adapting someone's story, like I'll get a detail wrong or draw someone with too much back hair or whatever. I couldn't have asked for a better story.

That was completely awesome, Mike.

I may just be a Canadadummy - but  is there an archive of previous strips available there which my eye is just missing?

Nevermind, I found it.

Oh yeah... congrats on reaching your 100th strip!

So great. The expressions are hilarious, especially Tom cracking up in the "that's what happens!" panel.

This is the best and it means a lot to me to see the story live on in a different medium and to see how perfectly Mike pulled it off.

Thank you, Mike. You're a master!

Tom.

Excellent job, Mike. You captured the essence of Dogmo.

That was fantastic, and I'm glad I got to hear the story first, so the comic was even more resonant.

It is a fine memorial.  I wish someone would draw comics of all my dead beasts' great moments.
