Ah Adam, welcome back to the strip. He’s always good for some good Rabid Lamb Comic fodder. We all know he’s the REAL star of Rabid Lamb. Tell me any of you have been able to forget about “dancing adam”…I thought not. 
-
That’s what’s been missing, Adam’s bald head and uncolored beard!
Frankly, I’m not sure I’d love him either with a deer head.
-
On the other hand, there are worse things than a deer head. WAY better than a turkey… or a pig… which I think I’ve woken up to before…
-
Hee, oh that Adam! I’d totally rub his antlers! 😀
I mean….uh….::runs away::
-
Yeah, I was trying to leave him out of the comic for awhile (for several reasons) but we all know he’s the star. It’s good to have him back.
Question…do you guys think I should be coloring in Adam’s beard? I don’t really like it dark…maybe because in life it is light (reddish/ blondish/ brownish)…but also because it just looks sloppy when I color (and by color I mean make it black) it in…
Hol: I’ve definitely woken up to the pig head before.
Paul: HA!
-
I have no problem with having an “uncolored beard” but I do feel like my second chin is getting the shaft in this strip. He(it?) feels slighted.
The deer head is cool but I never considered the turkey head. Hmmmmm….
-
Why not use actual color? It would certainly draw your attention. It could even be a star of its own.
-
Adam: I’ve never seen this “second chin” of which you speak…
It’s REALLY a definite “no” if you’ve got the turkey head instead of deer.
TK42ONE: Sure, Sure, color. No problem. When I find an extra five to ten hours a week for something like that I’ll be sure to add it to the program.
You notice the second Paul started seeing someone he went back to the black and white basics…significant others take time! It’s hard to choose to color on a computer instead of going to movies, or dinners out, or sleeping, or cuddling, or fing…you get me?
Besides, while color certainly is flashy and has it’s draw I tend to prefer black and white…especially for the kind of work I do…

I like Adam, he asks one of those impossible questions here. Kind of like “If I got run over by a bus and my head was hanging off by a string, would you still love me?” The polite answer is yes, and I like how the heroine doesn’t take that road. Most of us would just be like, “Yeah, uh, I guess…”
I hear you about adding color. I’ve been playing around with the idea of adding color to my webcomic, but, as you can see if you click on my name link, I’ve stuck with good old black-and-white. For me, comics are more about the writing and not so dependent on great visuals, so when I have a good idea for a comic, I don’t want to take 17 years working on it before moving on to the next concept that excites me. I think in general people prefer comics in color, but for me it’s all about capturing that raw energy in the moment, and to me this can only be done in black-and-white.
-
Ha, yeah! Coloring takes up a whole lot of time…and I’d much rather spoon someone than spend an hour “shading” in my t-shirt. As per Adam’s beard, I can see it just fine, but maybe that’s just me. I don’t think it needs shading in, but you could always cross-hatch it or something.
-
Phil Chenier and Keith Hernandez aint got nuffin on your mans beard gurl-fren. That sexy ass beard should be Just For Mens.

Madrugada: All my best stuff is stolen from Adam. He’s the true talent (and humor) in the relationship, but he’s too lazy to do a daily strip, so you all get me, poor things. I’m with you on the color comics. People do prefer them in general, but I just can’t make myself care
Paul: Spooning is WAY better than shading.
Mike: Well said.
