Is this, comic, really up for review?

It's basically some "cute" pictures of children with some mildly funny text under it.

There is no art. Its all photos. And not overly crazy photos either.

I just don't get it....

:?

Yikes, This is just a tad on the creepy side. plus photos of ones children does not a comic make.
Of course you will. All intelligent beings dream. Nobody knows why.

Also, tell random people they are awsome! it helps!

CCS's Super Quick Review:

Not being sequential art, this can't really be classified as comic, or a comic strip. It reminds me more of some sort of family circus type thing. But there are pictures. I have to say I don't enjoy it. The pictures are kinda creepy a lot of the time, and the words underneath are only sorta funny. Sometimes the captions are too long.

Overall this might appeal to some parents, but not to me. In fact, it reminds me of this.

So, overall I don't like it.

I actually am finding it sort of funny... it got a giggle out of me. I think it counts as a comic, in a weird way.

By my definition of comics, these probably aren't. There are plenty of photo comics out there-- "Alien Loves Predator," "Sinister Bedfellows,"-- so that's not the problem. This is essentially a daily exercise in photo captioning.

That having been said, I enjoy a lot of the captions. Combined with the cuteness, they're just twisted enough to give me a short, sharp shock. "What do you say when your son's snowman melts?" "Down with Whitey!"

It's not monolithically great material, but there are definite moments of both awesome and awe-sinine.
