Collective Nouns

SarahI’m trying to introduce the main cast of characters before I go down too many of the meandering tangents I have planned for my comic strip. This week was dedicated to Sarah.

It’s easy to figure out wacky adventures for the boys but Sarah has much more poise and grace. It makes her a difficult character for me to understand and portray. I think I did a decent job of it although I’m a little worried that the strip has too many inside jokes.

It might be helpful to know for example that Sarah is working on a children’s book, Aaron has an imagined shark fetish, and Lou has whatever version of tourette’s syndrome causes a person to randomly bring up beetles in everyday conversation.

Pat - “Hi Lou, How’s it going today?”
Lou - “beetles.”
Pat - “Yeah, I hear ya bro.”
Lou - “hymenoptera.”

    Lou is totally right about that book needing bombardier beetles. Hit the nail right on the head, as they say. If there aren’t any bombardier beetles, I’m not reading it.
