Love the feeling of finding that perfect pumpkin for carving! It’s not such an easy thing to do, in my experience! Some are lopsided, or flat on one side, or have weird coloring, or some sort of scar or mutation growing on it. Maybe it’s because I usually wait so long to go get one the best ones are already taken… Glad you liked it, Jande!
So Thaaaaat’s the reason pumpkins are so scary!
Somebody’s got to motivate ’em, Nef!
Those are some cute pumpkins. 🙂
You should have seen ’em when they were babies!
Maybe it’s the way he’s reading it…
It would be a lot worse if he was singing it!
Looks like those pumpkins are gutless! 🙂
They’re spineless, too!
See no evil, Speak no evil, Hear no evil… no… it’s just a pumpkin patch panic.
Taste no evil, either! Unless we’re talking about pumpkin pie, and that’s completely ok!
How scary was it? It scared the jack-o-lanterns!
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is their favorite!
Very cute! I really like the expression of the third pumpkin the most. 😉
He’s my favorite too, Bill, and actually the first of the three pumpkins I drew, too.
So THAT’S how they get such scary faces!
This is a fantastic huge gag with heavy black on top. Awesome, Mark!
Putting lots of black in panels looks great, but dang it’s a lot of work! Thanks, Joseph!
It’s gotta be a great life when pumpkins are bigger than you!
A pumpkin you can live inside of is big, indeed!
That is a perfect set of spooky nightlights, Mark! 🙂
And they don’t need an outlet, either!
It looks like they’re going to lose their seeds!
It already scared the stuffings out of ’em!
The perfect bedtime story!
Can an orange pumpkin turn white?
Clever and original. Well done Mark.
Thanks, Kevin! Pumpkins are perfect props for cartoonists!
It has to be REALLY scary to scare a pumpkin like that!
It’s hard enough to sleep at night with a candle burning inside you, and now this…!
Must be a pumpkin recipe book.
Haw, that would be a fearsome fable, indeed!
Well done. Beautiful Art!
I was going for that consternation by candlelight look, haha. Thanks so much, Gruhn, glad you liked it!
As a professional storyteller, let me say this comic is beyond the pale of awesome!
Michael, that is very nice of you to say! Storytelling is a real skill, and those who practice it are true artists, indeed!
It was a dark and scary pumpkin. . .
The ghastly smell of pumpkin pie was in the air…
I was gonna just carve my pumpkin, but now I am gonna read to it.
It’s a lot less messy.
YES! Halloween is never too soon!
Not according to retail.
Oooh! ZB can come and help me carve my Punkins this weekend! I Picked a Perfect Punkin for carvin’. (actually my daughter did). Nice one, Mark! <3

I believe we could all feel 100% percent safer this Halloween.
I know at least the roads are safer, since pumpkins can’t drive.
Happy Halloween.
Happy Halloween, Tom!
What a bunch of scaredy pumpkins
They just don’t have enough guts!
