# But then I don't think it would be immediately obvious that it was hot.
It would be more like acid or something. But that would be cool, because you could make that other guy a fly, like in that movie, The Fly, and he could sick up some acid and spit it on the other man. Like in that movie, The Fly.

You know. Like in that movie.

# funny you should say that
but the strip started out with him spitting acid, but then my other half got confused because he was drinking a cup of tea. But I was so proud of the drawing in the first frame, I couldn't bring myself to change it, so I had to change the strip. The whole gag changed, and at that point I was sure if i'd mutilated it.

So I plowed on, and that's why i'm not sure of it. I think I probably should have stuck to my guns and gone with the acid thing. Hey ho.

# The 'cup of tea' thing was missed..
I assumed it was acid (for whatever reason)too..

# Keep it up!
It's a beautiful style regardless of wether most people 'get' it or not :)

# I like it because he's spitting incendiary liquid, whatever it is, in the face of someone wearing an item of clothing saying "I <3 Trees"
and causing his face to melt. Hahaha, pain and misery :D

If you remove the final panel, and replace the rather redundant "Face is burning!" text (which we can see, because you're actually good at drawing - you don't need to have your characters explain situations in text) the comic becomes more surreal. And I like that thought.
