I like using "calloo callay" as an expression the way that Gomer Pyle would say "shazaam" at anything astounding.

The end

I love the fact that you kept the original Jabberwock design. :)

ps: I'm gonna start saying "Calloo Callay" from now on. :XD:

This was truley great in my opinion. I like how you kept the same image of the Jabberwocky in your comics and didn't make your own version. I always loved the Jabberwocky so seeing it done in comic form such as this makes me really happy :w00t: :+fav:

Thanks. I loved that design too. Some people actually thought it was based on that PC game from a few years back. "DUDE you used the design from the Alice game!" lol

What fools these mortals be.

That's the one. You wouldn't believe how many people only know Alice stuff from that game.

Theres the line "Beware the Jabberwock, my son.." So I take it that its a boy. Its from Alice Throught the Looking Glass, so I can see how you may be confused.

You know if you really look at the poem it's called the Jabberwock. Jabberwocky is the plural, though it is frighting to find that there are more. The pictures scared me as a girl and you hit the colors perfectly, though I'm sad to not see the exciment of the father... and the word frabjous. You really impress me with you Wonderland-know-how.

Im glad you liked it. There were things i left out that i set out to put in. As i was laying it out and drawing the story, it sort of just formed it itself into this little adaptation. Originally i had the father saying the first part of the poem as a lecture to the boy in that house on the hill on page 1. It was going to be a big grand house and they were talking in front of the fire place with the original illustration of the Jabberwock over it. Basically it would have given a better impression of of that i was saying there were many Jabberwock to be slain by young men. I do wish i could have worked in 'frabjous' though. *sigh* Maybe next time ;)
