I think this was later proved to be incorrect. Heresy?

I do recall a later contradiction.

I think maybe they sent him to some sort of physical therapist.

Nay, evolution.

I think this joke was written with Phillipe as a retard, but he was later retconned to be 5 instead, so he lost the gross mouth feature.

He was very special.

I was expecting "Here Comes A Special Boy" but got "Mongoloid" instead. Lucky I like Devo.

Either way, it's really gross.

Teodor's face cracks me up.

Mouths are creepy! But this is still one of my favorite strips!

mouths are pretyty nice when there's two of them pressing up againts in eachother and one of thems yours.,m

Not if the other one's Philippe's.

That is when the adverb moves from "pretyty" to "very"

Horrifying in that "can't look away" kind of way.

That is TERRIFYING

uggh, i can imagine it quivering.

good lord are people on the internet still doing that fucking "ooh shiny" thing

good lord, are people on the internet still making fun or people on the int-- ahh, fuck it.

are people on the internet still IN LOVE WITH CLITS

BECAUSE CLITS

LOVE 'EM

Yes, we are.

Great icon/comment synchronicity.

Avatar makes it work. Chubby.

he is only five... and Cornelius's "oh my face" is priceless. as well as Teodor's grimace.

its so weird but so freaking funny though

Tops of the morning to you awesome strip.

poor little phillipe. i like the little guy.

I liked Philippe is Standing on It, but this is the one that really got me hooked.

You shouldna done that, he's just a boy, poor lil feller.

I imagine this comment being voiced by Carl from Sling Blade.

Like a sweet-mannered car wreck. Still, he is good at talking with his mouth closed.

When I first came to Achewood and started working through the archives the previous strips got me warmed up, and this was the one that really smacked home with legitimate laugh out load moment. Stark physical comedy, beautifully done. Kudos, Onstad!

Cornelius is tiny!

Indeed.

RETCON!

oh! that is the limit.

hilariously disturbing

this may have been the first one that I realized this is a special comic, for special people.

Woah, we are the same person!

Teodor always makes the greatest expressions!

This is the first strip that I thought was hilarious (though "Bedtime" came close).

I imagine it opening in a slow, laborious process, with heavy mechanical noises. Excited fanfare is blaring. Thunderbird 1 and 2 fly out.

Teodor and Cornelius' faces.

I wonder if this came out of Onstad trying to figure out how to draw Philippe with his mouth open.

This strip reminds me of what I love about Achewood: there are no rules. Onstad can make this joke and then later show Philippe opening his mouth in a different way, and it all just barely hangs together. It works.

I like how Cornelius covers his mouth with both of his little hands. Shock abounds!

This ruins Philippe's innocence completely, now that he's half-shark-half-seal. GROSS

I imagine that when he opens his mouth it makes such a sound as "fwup". Like something that should not be.

then a bustling woman puts her banking in him.

He says "Okay Teodor" and then opens his mouth.

His right lip folds out.

this was i guess just an one-off non-canon joke. funny as all hell though

Philippe is haunted by memories of his old mouth.

its fun to try to make that face

Man don't even front you ain't got those otter skillz...

It would be pretty gross to watch him eat.

It opens like a trash compactor!

i have NO idea why

but when phillipe opens his mouth i picture him making the sound that the man with angry ticks that fire out of his nipples makes, in Don Hertzfeldt's "Rejected."
