Originally, bug was going to have the butterflies in his stomach, but then I figured a caterpillar with butterflies would be funnier. It’s interesting the stages gags go through sometimes, isn’t it?
I’m so glad you glommed onto that, Alexander. The joke started with a caterpillar having butterflies in his stomach, and it just flitted from there! I appreciate that you like it, thanks for reading and commenting!
When it comes down to it, if I’m going to make something, I want to have fun! Zombies, witches, devil dogs, boogers, bugs… I go with whatever makes me smile. Glad you like ’em, Rich, it truly means a lot!
I dont like to fly either. But that lil fella cant pop an adavant w/ a martini chaser, now can he?!? [whistles]
Unfortunately, they’re not serving martinis on this flight. And they don’t make bags of peanuts their size, either…
I love how you conveyed the “butterflies” message, very well done!
I always thought the image of butterflies in your stomach was so visual! I’ve finally been able to do something with it!
Awwww, he’s a little Jitter Bug!
And just like you put it, with a capital “J”!
Great job with the narration on this strip Mark! 😀

That’s going to be the ride of your life!
Call me crazy, but I’d love to ride in the seat of a gigantic butterfly ride, wouldn’t you?
It is a good thing that they weren’t using a bird.
Being served in-flight lunch is one thing, BEING in-flight lunch is another thing altogether!
And we have lift off!
To the stop sign… and beyond!
Butterflies for the Butterfly!
He doesn’t have the stomach for it!
The caterpillar is practicing for when he sprouts wings. Great storytelling, Mark!
Ha, I never thought of that, Joseph. I might have to do some strips with that theme… (if you don’t mind…)…
Oh, that would be cool! I’m curious to see what you come up with!
Let me percolate for awhile and see what I can come up with…
You are the wings beneath my wings.
The Better Friend Effect!
Houston, we have lift off! Remember to refuel with sugar water.
A-OK full go!
Absolutely love the symbolism of the caterpillar having butterflies in his tummy XD.
As always, very creative. Fantastic Job!

Never eat your butterfly brothers before a flight!
I never ate a butterfly, but I’ve had plenty in my stomach before!
I wonder if butterflies get butterflies when they’re nervous.
I think that warrants a thorough scientific investigation, Jack!
I just hope that the butterfly doesn’t decide to migrate, otherwise they could be in for a very long flight!
Bug road trip!!
I’d be nervous too, butterflies can go berserk if they get too excited
Heaven help ’em if it spots a porch light!
It’d be like riding in a jet fighter plane. Maybe I should send Bruce to see them for flying lessons
This is just like when I get airplanes in my stomach when flying!
I’d love to see those x-rays!
Yikes! they better hold on tight! Hopefully that butterfly is a good flyer! Your bug antics are da bomb!
