    This just shows that horror stories depend on the audience.

      He loves reading horror books. The last one he read was The Anatomy of the Human Foot. Kept him up at night for weeks!

    It’s the scariest book of them all for Zombie bug. . . But cute for us!

      There’s a sequel coming out next year called “Environmentally Friendly Pest Management”. Some bugs have been known to faint at the title!

      It’s a short (and very tiny) story.

    I love your scenes that literally pan in on the action like this.

      A zoom in works particularly well when your subject is a bug!

    That’s life in a nutshell, or rather a pumpkin shell.

    If that pumpkin stays out too long he’ll have plenty of friends to hang out with. 😉

        A horsefly’s bite is so painful! They’re at the beach in the evenings! :O(

          I never realized a bug had teeth until I drew one his chewing nails, Joseph.

      Should be a lot of pest control trucks, and crawling under houses involved.

      I found that book a bit too technical, myself.

    I think he’d better start worrying about that carnivorous pumpkin, too.

        I wonder if it’s an anti-bedwetting book for Pests. Pest Bladder Control

    Haha! The gag of the last panel is great combined with the presentation leading up to it knocks it out of the park! Great one Mark!

      Hey Mat, thanks! I wasn’t sure the zoom in would work, and I thought the book gag wouldn’t register, but it seems to be ok.

    Add that title to the list of banned books from bug schools. Too disturbing for the larvae, nymphs and pupae…

        You should be at least 1″ high to read that kind of material!
