You should sell prints of this… I’d buy one if I had the money..
TaraBear
… wow.

Wow. Amazing! =D

This is my favorite webcomic right now. Your art is amazing, to the point of making me want to pick up my pencil and have at it. Everything is wonderful about your work. Please, don’t stop for anything short of necessity.
The comic alone isn’t even enough for me right now, I’ve also gotta have a wallpaper to remind me daily how much I love your work.

You’d have to be blind not being able – this looks awesome.
Though, I wonder if you at some point will have to make a decision between funny comics and this more artsy style… If you ask me, don’t do it! Just let it flow ;).
Exxobyte
Really awesome stuff!!! Love it all. :D great Job!
Exxobyte
Woooops, wrong email got put in, so it used the wrong account. my bad! But yeah, AWESOME! :D

This is truly amazing. This would look nice on a wall, you should make a print!

I’ve been reading this webcomic for ages, and for a while there it was pretty confused in terms of storyline and style – but it’s come a long way. I’m so glad I stuck around, because otherwise I wouldn’t have seen such amazing artwork. This is one of the best examples of your work I’ve seen; and amidst the huge pool of other comics out there, it stands pretty * high.
If you make a print of this one, I’m gonna buy it without a second thought :)
TallHomunculus
Wow, this is a really nice comic.
Mariana
Oooh, it’s so pretty!
I was all warm and fuzzy for Grandpa. :] the bonus box was funny!
Elwen

Cutie

Stranger

Please do more……

Evan this is absolutely fantastic! The new style you’ve been working on looks amazing. Keep on pushing yourself artistically because it is really paying off. Not only that but your story-telling has reached a new level as well. Very deep and thoughtful. I love it! I especially love how you placed your text in this one. Its subtle and very low-key, which really blends the message to the artwork well. Two words for ya… Awesomely Awesome! Can’t wait to see what you come up with next week!

Wallpaper! This art demands its on wallpaper.

Why don’t you be environmental and have your coffin frozen and have it smashed into chunks of ice and have that put in your grave. Then a tree will grow there.
That’s what I want when I die.
But I’m only 11.
And 3/4!
tugged on a heart string there, Mr Artistman. *sniffle*

Really great one, love the speech.
I JUST GOT MY JETPACK BEAR SHIRT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The determination to make your artwork better truly shows, and is an inspiration to most/all of us.
Keep up the good… nay… awesome work!
AgentZeroNine
Dude..This is beautiful. I am seriously amazed.
Devon
You’ve been having fun with your art lately, haven’t you? You’re talented :D I really like the evolution from your very first “Meet August” strip to now.

Thanks narnianbadger! I really appreciate the kind words as well as the link in your blog, that hasn’t gone unnoticed ;)
(whats the “almost” about by the way?)

I’m looking into a place near where I live that is supposed to do an amazing job at making really nice fine art prints onto cotton canvas. I think I’m going to stop by there tomorrow and see about getting some nice prints done.
If I do, I’ll probably remove the words and just make it an art piece.
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
Thanks E. Houle! I’d encourage you as much as I can to go ahead and make some art, just be sure and let me know when you do ;)
It’s kinda weird making vertical strips into wallpapers, it’s an odd aspect ratio. I’ll see what I can do about making a wallpaper of this though if theres any interest in it.
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
I don’t think I’ll ever give up on humor, I just love to make people laugh and smile; however, I also won’t shy away from doing whatever other more serious things that I feel need to be covered ;)
Doing both is also possible, I always like it when a somewhat serious conversation is ended on a lighter note :D
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
I know a lot of the archives are rather confusing in terms of stories and style, but I’ve actually been working for the past couple weeks to fix a lot of those issues. What all the entails I can’t get into right now, but some really cool stuff is coming :D
Also, I made some comments regarding the print a few comments up, I’ll let you guys know if I do a fine art giclee print on canvas (I really want to).
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
awww really?
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
sure have! I’ve had a lot more time on my hands lately to experiment more is why :)
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
Thanks Brian, I wasn’t sure how it’d turn out or how it’d be received but I’m happy people seem to like it :)
hmm I think that was in reference to the slight bit of bathroom-related humor awhile back. hope it didn’t offend you that I said that, I have some very conservative friends & family and it’s always a bit of a dilemma to try to anticipate what will turn ‘em off. even when something doesn’t bother me.

In love with it. The text placement… It feels so spacious. God, I love it. Well done, man.
Briton
I definitely think there should be a wallpaper of this, it has a nice, peaceful, serene quality about it that I’d like to see when I use my computer.
I love the new styles you’re trying out, and I know they’re only going to get better. :)

The art is amazing! Very different and I like it!
Frankie D.
Ahh, i only just noticed the word “alone” today! That all makes a bit more sense now….
Arno R.
umm i was just wondering is that all done in Photoshop? or did u paint it/draw it and scan it? its epic by the way=]

I just lost my grandfather on Sunday. This strip really touched me. Great work Evan.
D*** you for being the first web comic to really bring tears to my eyes.
Lord Becketh
I just StumbleUpon’d this website. It’s ballin’. I shall continue to stea– come back. <3
Derek
I stumbled across your website the other day and read all of them and i have to say this is hands down the coolest/funniest comic strip i have ever read. XD
calilac
really really. when i first looked i didn’t see the text i was that sucked in to it (i could hear the wind in the grass and kites) and then i noticed the words and, well, have to say i got a little choked up today too. in a good way. i like your idea of getting it printed on canvas, definetly canvas worthy.
Franco
That’s really good looking artwork. I’m adding this to my comic rotation.
CzarMatt
I am speechless. Amazing work.
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
Wow. Thank you.
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
AWESOMERAD!
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
Hey man, I’m so sorry to hear that. I recently lost some family members as well, it’s never easy…
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
Awesome, thanks for stopping by Derek!
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
SUPERAWESOME! I hope you stick around :)
http://pajamaforest.com evandiaz
Woo! Good to hear that Franco :D
Pirksaddict
I kinda like the words… They sound like something my Grandad would say…lol :) If you do print it, you should run off a few copies with the words included and see how the reception goes. For me, in many ways they make it even better. The best way I can describe it is that I feel they complete the image.
Douglas
OM! I can not wait till the new one is out. This webcomic is truly amazing. Ctrl Alt Del..Least I Could Do..and Now. Pajama Forest. This is in my favourites for sure!!.. BTW. My friend loves this comic aswell.
Davey Gee
it made my belly go all warm and the extra bit made me pmsl!!!!
Sef
Been reading for a bit, really noticing the art. Some really great looking backgrounds lately. Characters too, but the scenery is more noticeable to me.
james

Baronj67
I love your work, and appreciated the topic
Dannyboy
Yaa can you make a wall paper of this? Or at least try to?
Stefanie
Okay, so I know I *technically* have the next several already commented for XD…but WOW…I agree with what everyone else has said (even though I’m a little late XD ). This is so nostalgic, and yet new at the same time, for me. The artwork is…mmm…for lack of a better word: fantastic–and an understatement at that! =) Thanks for this one, it’s very, very special to me <3
