Boy meets girl...

Page done sometime in the late nineties, not collected anywhere. It's possible that it was never published, I'm not sure. It doesn't really work that well. Is it clear that the second couple is the girl's parents?

  3. it took me a sec, but I got it with the next panel. I think an old man hat on Dad would have helped...

  4. Jason, I´m your fan, almost your groupie, LOL, ok sorry, I´m gonna try stay cool (I´m from Mexico, so, excuse my english).

    Well, it´s clear they are the parents of the girl, maybe the panel when they´re hving the baby it´s kind of dirty, I don´t know, hard to read in a sec.

    Great job, keep working.... please.

  5. It was clear that they're family once you think about it for a second. Nice strip by the way.

  7. I made up a convoluted explanation that the second guy who punches the first guy (the one from the first panel) was making a preemptive strike, because the first guy realized his baby looked more like the second guy. So, the first guy presumably bails on his girlfriend and newborn, realizing he's not the father, and the real father marries the girl who just gave birth to his kid. I liked the piece anyway because Jason's sense of cartoon/gag humor is so well-realized, but now it makes a lot more sense.

    For those of you in the U.S., maybe I've seen too much Maury Povich? ("You are... NOT the father!" I hate that stuff.)

  8. I did not get that they were her parents, but when you read the comments you leave, it does everything more logical.
