Drying Off

Yep, not only do polar bears shake like a dog, but they roll around and slide themselves on the snow to get dry. Penguins like Osborne start off with a shake and then some good old preening.

Snow!

Speaking of snow, we got more snow here yesterday than we have combined in the last two years, there was still snow falling this morning. I always figure if it’s going to be cold, there might as well be some snow. It’s really pretty, everything is just draped in white. Maybe I’ll go create a Pop Rocks and Soda snowman scene in the front yard.

  4. Hermes

    Great comic :)

  5. Hannah the Penguin Freak

    hey people
    in the last panel it looks like Wally got electricuted.
    i like how the speech bubble got wet too.
    its just an awesome comic all around. :D

    and Tyler, you need to get working on that book…
    its been page 1 out of 72 for a long time…

  6. Sarah da penguin lver

    haha!! osborne looks soooo hilarious when he’s wet!!! and i love “dry” wally!! he does look like he has been electrocuted! sweet comic tyler :D
    but yes you need to work on the book…. oh and Happy Holidays!!!

  7. Tux

    Wally looks hilarious in all the panels. I wonder if we’re going to get into another debate of the proper name for floaties, water-wings and whatever else they are known as now. :)

    Keep up the great work :D

  8. wendell

    Aw, Wally’s just got the frizzies. No electrocution here, folks. Move along.

    As for your comment about the snow… if you do a “pop rocks and soda” snowman tableau, we expect PICTURES. :)

  9. Emperor Penguin

    I get frizzy hair just like Wally! :D

    Here is a whole paragraph of facts!!!! JUMBO PACK

    Did you know….

    Emperors are near the top of the Southern Ocean’s food chain.
    They seem clumsy on land but when they are in water, their shape gives them great agility. They are also very strong birds and their strength and agility make them very effective predators.

    Man… That’s not fair. Once again I’ll tell you, I live in Germany, and it usally snows a lot hee. But it hasn’t yet, and studies show Global Warming might be the culprit. That sucks. But over here the colder months are usally January and Febuary. BNut that won’t help the skiing trip my family has planned this Christmas. Nice comic Tyler. That would suck if Wally had been electrocuted. He might die. When I first opened this comic I thought the title said “Dieing off” and I got scared someone was gonna die. Nice fact E.P. I only know Billy Idol from “The Wedding Singer”. I want to see pictures of the real life Pop Rox and Soda fiasco if you do do it. Sorry for taking up space.

  11. Penguin Guru

    We haven’t seen the Northeren Fact book in awhile. Nice comic Tyler. Ha! Even Osborne’s speach got wet. You need to do some serious book work my man. Get on it!

  57. OrAnGe JuIcE

    Ha ha, for Christmas I made a stuffed polar bear for my best friend on the last day of school, and it looked EXACTLY like Wally in the last panel!!!

    P.S. With Wally rolling around with his waterwings still on, wouldn’t they pop? I did theat once and it hurt alot!

  58. OrAnGe JuIcE

    I remember when I used to do that, sigh…. I live in El Paso now and there isn’t even hail during the winter most of the time. It’s kind of sad. Once it was snowing outside in Illinois and School was cancelled for 2 days, and as soon as it opened again the teachers went on strike. Then they were about to open but then winter break came. I didn’t go to school for almost a month!! That was fun.

  59. zeel

  61. penguin Luvr 20 (kayla)

    hey every1! i LUV wally in the last panel. he looks SOOO cute!!! im a sucker for cute things.

  62. New Guy

    I live in Kentucky, it usually snows here in winter but it hasen’t been snowing for the last few years! I hate global warming, soon the polar icecaps will melt and well lets just say we’re gonna need a big ark to save everyone.

    Also I like the idea of a Christmas Comic, sounds pretty good to me. And howcome funbrain stopped posting new comics? I bet its because you only do like 2 comics a week now! Why don’t you do one everyday anymore? Also get working on your book more! I mean its still 1 page! Or have you forgot to upgrade it so it says 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 or 9 or 10-72 pages. And on the first comic you said you’d do a wally backup story sometime! I mean its been a long time since then and you still don’t seem to have any plans at all!Sorry for taking up space but really tyler quit being lazy and do stuff!

  63. zeel

    new guy is right I hate to say this but…

    QUIT BEING LAZZY TYLER

    I PROTEST WE MUST PROTEST PEPLE NO MOre faCT NO MORE FUN TIL TYLE GETS HIS ACT TOGETHER
