This is most likely my favorite one so far. ^_^
I really like the one with all the bats.
It is so detailed, and so scrambled together.
Wish I could draw it like that, Because if I draw it like that, I know it would just be a big mess in the end. LOL! XD
Good Job. 😉
How is this a rip-off of Calvin & Hobbes? This is completely a Chris Sanders work from the ground up, the only influence I might even slightly detect are conventions from Peanuts, but they seem to be more of homages than rip-offs. And Ogo’s wide mouth is Sanders’ style as well, even if it may remind you of Calvin, it was Sander’ style long before C&H came to life. I love C&H and what Watterson did for the art form of comics, but I’m getting annoyed by everybody accussing Kiskaloo of being a copycat when it clearly isn’t.
I know it’s 2 years later but I’m just discovering this funny series! the Calvin & Hobbes “similarity” comes from the lack of pupils in their eyes (so what?), and maybe a smidge from the relationship between the characters (not only the girl and the cat, but the cat and the rabbit in the graveyard). I see it but I don’t think of it as a “rip-off.”

“I didn’t expect people who drink tea to have so much control over the undead.” LOL, classic.

And what late XXth/early XXIst Century cartoonist isn’t influenced by Peanuts?
