check out my sick elephant!

I’m loving the sick elephant series on right now over at Wondermark.

I started reposting them all here for myself, but the best thing you can do is go to the first in the series and click through them on his site, so he gets good feels from knowing people are reading them. And so you’ll never know if you’re reading an elephant comic until you know you’re reading an elephant comic. 

Don’t deprive yourself — go read them

The second best thing you can do is read them all here if you’re too lazy to click through.

THE HEIST OF THE EPOCH!!!

Bones of Stone, For the Bold

fortunately there are lots of handy how-to techniques for this process on SkelShare.com

In which the Staff is short

It is definitely a literal bone thing. That doesn’t rule out it ALSO being a sex thing, but it is definitely, foremost, a bone thing.

The Cossack Gone Astray

Turns out you can weave a LOT of Chekhov short story titles into 17 short lines of dialogue

In which the Stacks hold Facts

‘The Scarlet Herring’ seemed like it was gonna be pretty good, but then it never really went anywhere.

In which a Tract is hacked

That tract was originally about a kid who valued his special trousers over the love of his family. You know, real relatable content

Thick Skin, White Soap

I think I saw an article in ELLE just recently about the phenomenon
