I really like this doctor character, his design is most handsome for a bug. And your art is really beautiful (as it has always been), you have unique style.

Eep! I'm so flattered you used my design! The neck cast is a brilliant touch. Of course, the rest of the comic is amazing as usual I'm especially fond of the Doctor's pedipalp sideburns (is pedipalp the correct term here? My arthropod anatomy is not the greatest I'm afraid)

I love how some of the characters have more human-ish faces and some don't. It makes everything all the more interesting and unique. I love the doctor's face, especially his eyes.
I'm curious about Ms. Jackson and the Doctor's relationship. XD

i hate when old people waist the doctors time, because people with real problems can't get the help they may need... im sorry, i shouldn't bring this up in a critic of your work... i love the expression in the 4th panel.

Spoonfayse In reply to Hogie [2011-11-25 10:34:48 +0000 UTC]

Is it based on a personal experience?
Seeing as she's a flea and she'd have trouble jumping seems like a valid reason to see a doctor?

Hogie In reply to Spoonfayse [2011-11-25 22:44:13 +0000 UTC]

im sorry i come from canada where there is a doctor shortage. i haven't had a check up in 5+ years, last time i was actually looked over by the doctor it was chicken pox when i was 18 and im 25 now. you can't book an appointment within 6 months.. i've been trying to get papers looked over for months and every time i go in there the waiting room is full of old people... old people complaining about aches and pains that come with getting old. its like wasting the doctors time with a head cold! he can't really fix that! he can prescribe tones of pills but your old and it happens. obviously mis. flea lives in a place with plenty of doctors.

Yowch, that sounds pretty terrible. Yeah, I totally get what you mean, it's so annoying when there's ridiculously long waiting lines to even get an appointment in the first place (I've had this happen with a dentist appointment, grr.)

I think she just has the hots for the doc, he'll find out eventually. (spoiler, he might eat her.)

im not even bothered about it that much for myself since im in decent shape and rarely ever get sick.. im only worried for people who may really need it and can't get in. dude how could she not? have you seen that 4th panel?

It hadn't occured to me until just now that females in an arthropodal society would not have quite the same problems as females in a human society. Or at least they'd have more effective ways of dealing with them.

Also, while we're on the subject of insects with body parts getting to silly lengths, you should throw in a stalk eyed fly character some time.

Spoonfayse In reply to Goldindragon [2011-11-25 10:33:36 +0000 UTC]

This is true! Especially when it comes to gender ratios (bee and ant colonies; aphids reproduce asexually), lifespans and size differences and whatnot. I get the feeling Ms. Jackson made a meal out of that hobo spider. xD

FFFF I need to draw one of those guys, oh god.

Centipedes shouldn't be sexy. They're supposed to scare people and make them check their shoes before they put them on because they're terrified of being attacked by one. So why, Spoony, why is Doctor Pesvarus so damn handsome? I'm pretty sure you're the only person who could make bugs so attractive.

Niyosix In reply to Spoonfayse [2011-11-25 22:23:44 +0000 UTC]

I used to have pet tarantulas and centipedes so I guess that could explain why the doc doesn't creep me out that much. But when I grew up in Arizona you'd hear people screaming all the time because there was some giant bug in someones shoes or sock drawers.
