Bug Zapper by Tom Eaton
Comic description: Dung Beetle tells Butterfly Bob, “Let’s brainstorm. How can we make bubbles dangerous?” Butterfly Bob has no idea. Dung Beetle says, “They could be filled with poison and explode instead of pop!” Butterfly Bob says, “Yuck.” Dung Beetle imagines scenes of space and the jungle. “And it would be awesome if we had to obtain the ingredients from different exotic locations like a dramatic treasure hunt.” Dung Beetle leans into Butterfly Bob and says, “What are the ingredients anyway?” Butterfly Bob reads the label of a bottle of bubbles. “Soap water.”
How could you defeat poison bubbles ?

What does it mean when a character has swirls in their eyes in a comic?

Bird and Worm by Jed Dearybury
Comic description: “Amazing! A real live worm. . . I’ve never met one before.” says the bird. The worm says, “Well, now you have. Good day, sir.” The bird says, “Wait. You’re just going to leave? We should be friends.” The worm says, “Friends? Us? Is that possible?” The bird says, “I don’t see why not. Unless of course you have enough friends.” The worm says, “Hmm…” The bird says, “I’m a great one you won’t regret it.” The worm says, “I’ll think about it. Thanks for the offer.”
