At my request a t-shirt with this strip on it was made available, and I bought it. Many of those who saw it in the weeks that followed are now proud to have gotten in on the ground floor.

I bow to you, sir.

My hat is off to you for that wonderful merchandising concept.

This stip is truly the limit.

Chris, this was the one that really did it for me, way back when. This was the one that got me hooked for life.
A Triumph.

I agree, this strip is impossible to read without wanting to continue on...

Jokes are best when uncircumcised, like weiners.

spoken like a true Turtleneck Tom

this is the one that brought achewood-speak into my life. thanks, chris.

How is your mother... genius.

Yeah, this is one of my most-read strips. I love it.
'I cannot begin to guess' is a phrase I now use often.

my first achewood, as i recall, and beautiful it is too.

Man, Lyle really packed on the pounds over the next 100 years!

Notice the gradient on Mr. Bear's hat in the last panel.

There's a gradient in the hat... A GRADIENT IN THE HAT!

This is the same Lyle that later booked Pat with Nice Pete. Look it up.

Too cute.

I really like this strip; my initial response is to wish it had come later. To make a parody of a strip so soon after its conception and before it is fully developed could appear pretentious. However, this strip serves to develop Cornelius Bear's character.

I can't imagine Lyle acting that way in 2002.

ah, so this is where cornelius got his distinctive character from.

You are of low mind.

Roots before branches, son.

Unabashedly fived for "Oh! That is truly the limit."

We all have phrases we have co-opted from Achewood into our personal lexicons. For me, this is one of them.
