(COU) the raisin incident (7 of 7)
Okay I promise not to talk about raisins anymore for a very long time.…But if I would, I’d say that we need control more than we think we do, and that raising a child is about setting clear boundaries, and the moment we slip - we immediately see the results. Not to say that we need to be very strict and control every aspect of their lives, but if we’re entering a situation where we feel we n...
(R&F) oh brother
Becoming friends with somebody just to spend more time with somebody else is a recipe for… good comics. But also a recipe for problems in real life. So I do not recommend doing this. That being said, at least now we can enjoy these experiences as comics lol.💙 GuyAlso, howdy (!) to all the $1 supporters here, I hope you enjoy the weekly freebie! If you’d like to get these every day, just fol...
(COU) Raisin 6
As always I am very impressed by this kid’s ability to not only leave the past in the past and really accept apologies and move on… but also to say what he really feels. The hug doesn’t make his heart feel better Lmao 😂 I appreciate the honesty and I hope he doesn’t outgrow it.Hope all your hearts are feeling good today too💙 GuyAnd here’s the daily preview!Today’s comic is all ab...
(R&F) Blorgy
Those with better memory (not me lol) may notice that this is an adaptation of a comic I did about a year ago, maybe more. Back then I was still experimenting with these ideas and trying to find a way to tell my childhood stories, it would take me over a year until I realized that it needed to be told as one long consecutive story, and I’m so happy I took the plunge. Thank you so much for helpin...
(COU) raisin 5
He has all the power, doesn’t he? I guess that’s the natural way of things?Luckily he is a merciful master, until it comes to screen time. That’s when we feel his wrath.Btw, very lucky and grateful to have Mrs. E mediate for us! Where would we be without her?? 💙 Guyand here’s your daily preview panel for my childhood comics:It’s about those cringe moments while growing up. If you’ve...
(R&F) Too lame? Or not too lame?
Alien fart jokes are the best fart jokes… or so I’ve heard.I do remember myself telling strange jokes in gibberish and feeling a bit embarrassed by it until somebody laughed. It’s a bit cringe to think of right now as an adult, but back then it was ok. I guess we all are doomed to look back at our past selves and cringe… it’s what makes us buy new clothes and spend money on stuff we don...
(COU) raisins 4
Never thought I’d get so mad at this little dude, but I guess it was only a matter of time. Either way, when he said I hurt his heart, I died a little inside 😭😭💙💙💙 I don’t want to hurt his heart! Ok I gotta go cry now💙 GuyAnd here’s your daily preview panel for my childhood comics.You can sign up to get them here by selecting any pledge, you’ll get both Mr. B and my biogr...
(R&F) So the joke goes like this
Being weird back in the day was risky, when was being weird considered funny, and when was it… weird.I think I still live with this risk to this day. Only now I;m older and I don’t care as much. I’ll be weird to make myself laugh and hope Mrs. E gets the joke too. Even if it embarrasses her, it;s still a W for me. And as time goes by, if I can make Mr. B cringe too… all the better!Have a n...
(COU) raisins 3
Sadly this did happen… including putting the trash can on the counter…. Yikes, lol. And you can ask Mrs. E.I guess I felt really strongly about those raisins.Please don’t judge me too much!😭😅💙 GuyAnd here;s the daily childhood comic previewIf you’d like to get the new comic daily on top of the Mr. B comics - here’s a link to edit your pledgeWww.patreon.com/guyelnathan/membership...
(R&F) Brains
Touching your crush’s hand at that age? That’ll definitely make your brains melt, and in this case turn you into a puddle of 3rd grade goo. Which fits with all the Nickelodeon slime that was going on back then on tv lol.Anyway else here own Nickelodeon GAK ?(You have no idea how much I had to battle autocorrect to write GAK and not ‘gal’ lol)Happy to back on schedule and thanks for underst...
(COU) Raisins 2
And in that moment… Guy snapped.Yikes… 😬 I don’t know why this got me so angry, but something about it made me really lose my cool. Maybe it was because he heard me and decided not to listen. I don’t know… and yes, it;s just raisins… but in that moment I got really angry.Not proud of it, but hey - at least we get a comic out of it! Stay tuned for tomoras the raisin saga continues!...
(R&F) I made a mistake! Pls read!
Crap I guess I’m a mess today, not only did I post early, but I posted the wrong comic! I accidentally posted tomorrow’s comic TODAY!graaaaaaaaa 😭😭😭😭So yeah, now I’m left with the dilemma of do I post today’s comic now too, so you’ll be able to read them in the right order? Or wait until tomorrow?If I post today’s, it means there won’t be an R&F comic tomorrow, but there ...
(COU) raisins
Whoops! Posted the R&F comic too early by accident! So might as well post this one too lol. Tomorrow we’ll be back to our regular hours. Sorry if I woke you up lol.As for this comic, it starts off innocently enough, but buckle up - we’re going on a wild ride with these raisins ❤️😅 I kid you not…Have a great day,💙 GuyOh, by the way… question for all you lovely readers. Are there a...
(R&F) Laugh
Aliens were pretty big in the 90s. Remember the days where men in black and Independence Day came out pretty much at the same time? At least it felt that way to me… idk…Also, showing my age here. Please tell me you all saw those movies lol. Even if you just saw them recently! Still counts!Hope you’re having a nice weekend💙 Guy
(COU) Weeooo returns! + goodies
Potato… potato… (that doesn’t really work in writing, huh)Maybe if I wrote: po-tay-to… po-tah-to….Nevermind, lol.anyway! Yup! You guessed it! These are the last 24 hours to sign up for the ‘weeeooo’ goodies this month. They’re super fun and cute and they always make me smile, so if you’d want to get in on all the ‘weeeooo’ fun, be sure to sign up before the end of January. Al...
(R&F) so close
There’s always a catch… although now, looking back I can think of some situations where I was the third wheel. So I guess it can happen. But still… shut up Miles! (So I smell a catchphrase?)Also, I think all this alien language business was heavily inspired by Calvin &Hobbes who were always out exploring alien lands together, and those comics where Calvin imagined his teacher (Ms. Wormwood, ...
(COU) blanket
Lemme tell ya, that ‘NEVER DO THAT!’ will really make you pee your pants… but also crack you up LMAO 😂 I have never told him to NEVER do something. So I find it really interesting that these human emotions and ways of expression live inside of us from the beginning.Have a good one!💙 GuyAlso here’s the daily preview or the R&F comic. That moment when you hear your crush is moving CLOS...
(R&F) split
These are always super big moments as a kid. Being sat even nearby your crush is an earthquake of an event. Something that feels like your entire life can change. Just like when your best friends is sat next to your crush and you aren’t. The jealousy can really eat you up. In my case, I think this degree of separation was positive, it made it casual and not committed.💙 Guy
(COU) flower
I love how straightforward he is. We could all do well if we just said what we want and don’t want. Also, recently he’s been very into raisins. He goes through these ‘food fads’ one day it’s raisings the next it’s apples… and then I stock up and the fad is over… and I don’t know what to do with all the food!So I guess what I’m saying is… anyone want any raisins?💙 GuyAnd he...
(R&F) weird
I don’t know, back in the day ‘weird’ was the new ‘cool’. Or at least that’s the way I thought back then. Regardless, I was definitely not ‘cool’. Any other weirdos in the audience? I guess if you’d can find a few people to be weird with, it doesn’t feel weird anymore. Feels kinda fun.💙 Zork, Guy
(COU) pancakes
But but but… you were so excited about making them!(I made the pancakes by the way… alone. *sniffle*)Also where did he pick up this ‘maybe later’ ??I guess we say it sometimes. Still… weird to have it being said back!💙😅 GuyHere’s your daily R&F comic preview as well, still tackling body image issues atm. And although it;s hard I find it very satisfying,If you’d like to start re...
(R&F) blunt
I wi never invite Mr. Bs friends over to the pool unless I am absolutely certain that they are comfortable with it. Same goes for pool parties. To this day I am stressed when I go to the pool. It’s a scar that doesn’t heal.That being said, I really love making these comics, very cathartic to put it all out there.Hope you enjoy❤️ GuyPShow would you feel if I started publishing this comic at...
(COU) chew
Why does he do this? He’s been doing it since he was very young. He used to love eating sand. Now it’s just a little ‘snack’ here and there. So I guess we’re slowly improving. Still, I didn’t expect him to do this, but when I heard him chewing something didn’t sit right lol 😅Have a great Monday everyone! And don’t eat things off the ground!💙 Guyhere’s your preview of the R...
(R&F) toddler Guy
I think I still have some of that ‘baby fat’ on me. But what’s wrong with that? Babies are cute! 💙 But yeah, it’s funny how some things really stick with you. A sentence a grownup says next to you, an offhand remark can really change the way you look at yourself for years, and sometimes forever.But I guess we are the sum of all these events, and at the end of the day I’m ok with who I...
(COU) dressed
Okay I need about 50 drawings to really convey what it feels like sometimes to get this kid dressed. And it doesn’t help that his head is pretty darn big (got it from me, obviously). So yeah, the struggle is real!Anyone else here feel this? Either as the dresser or the dressee?But also how cute is he at the end? Made me forget all about the 10 minutes it took me to get a shirt on him ❤️Have ...
(R&F) Gym class
How many here played capture the flag during gym class? Actually we called it PE (physical education) at my school but I didn’t know if everyone would understand so I changed it to gym. Also, back in the day I thought the big shirt was enough, but it always felt uncomfortable and too tight on my chest while I ran… ah memories.Anyway, anyone here played sports at school?Hope you’re having a n...
(COU) potty
I love how literal he is 😂💙 so precious.Also have we ever been more proud of ourselves than when we first used the potty successfully? This may be our greatest achievement… so, think about it… and be proud of yourself for learning how to use the potty! It wasn’t easy, so don’t forget it!Hope you’re all having a great weekend!💙 GuyAnd here’s your daily preview of the R&F comic ...
(R&F) miles
Know anyone who speaks with a strange accent with no real explanation? If you could pick one accent for yourself, what would it be? Maybe I’d choose… Australian? Pretty cool tbh.Anyway, so yeah I decided to sit next to miles, even though I knew I didn’t want to… I wish I could say this is the last time I made a decision based on my fear of how people would look at me and if they would get ...
(COU) weeooo + goodie reveal
Weeeooo weeeooo weeeoooo!We all have that person in our family who loves to say ‘weeooo’ all the time. It could be a child, a grandparent, or even a partner, sometimes it’s just in our head’s but either way ‘weeooo’ is part of our life and this month I’m celebrating it with our goodies! And actually I’m super proud of it, and here’s a little design riddle… anybody notice anythi...
(R&F) back to reality
Aaaaand we’re back. I especially liked the transition through space and time in panel 3 to go back from present day to the flashback timeline. What do you think? Also. Am I the only one who thinks too much about other people;s feelings to a point where it hurts my decisions? My brain is wired to think if someone will get their feelings hurt and how to avoid it.Lastly, today is freebie day for al...
