I have no idea how I'm only the 4th person to review this comic, a lot of what's in here is pure gold!
The mix of nature and red-neck humor is spot on and genuinely has the feel that it should be read sipping hot cocoa by the fire at night. The comic is not very wordy, but lets its pictures speak for themselves. My personal favorite are the bird comic strips.
Here's an example: There's a momma bird feeding her baby birds in a typical momma bird fashion - by regurgitating the food into their mouths. Then the neighboring bird has the line: "Oh, Helen. You MUST give me the recipe."
Trust me, it's MUCH funnier in person, but you have to experience it for yourself. If anyone wants to try a taste of some Chad Carpenter, please let me know - I'm happy to lend them out!
In conclusion, read smart books but also read books that make you laugh and smile.

Though the author credits his inspiration to two different authors [Dik Brown & ?] he seems to me to be a cross between Sergio Argones & Gary Larson. I enjoy off-beat humour and this guy has it. Not quite to the level consistently of Larson but very funny... some LOL for me for sure.

Carpenter's humor remains fresh and engaging.

There’s more snorting than loling but that won’t stop me from reading more of them
