Good stuff.  *y*

Just 2 slight errors in the Smart story.

The pic with the police officer, where she replies "A wheel, Mr Officer?" I think it's either translated wrong, or I don't get it.  :-D
I guess it should have been "Drivers License" instead of wheel.

And instead of "doctor" I think you ment "daughter".

Keep them comming!

I got the impression it was referring to the steering wheel. Or rather lack thereof.

I think 'doctor' is correct as well. As in, the doctor told her to walk more, because it's good for her health.

BTW, I like the Smart car design.  *y*

After reading it a second time I must conclude that you are correct on both points.  :-$

thanks for your comments. *sweet*
you are right, the car has no steering wheel.
It is only 6 studs long and I couldn't manage to put a steering without changing it a bit, but I dindn't like how it looked so I leaved it like that. But you are right it doesn't make sense if you don't notice that, so I think I will change the text and put "license" instead.
About the second comment, That's the doctor that recommended granny to walk...
In the original text in portuguese I had other jokes but I removed them because you would only understand if you were inside the context.
Thank's again for your oppinion.
I will make the translated versions of the other comics I have soon.

Very nice, and a brilliant graphic work!  *y*
Your designs are superior like always, especially with that smart.
(I guess it´s the latest model equipped with telekinetic steerability....)  :-P

I like the butcheryshop and I like the Smart :-)

But do you mock the Smart?

It is good that there are small cars, because there are already many cars in Europe and the most are every year larger. In the Netherlands some rich people buy S.U.V. cars, altough they are special made for wild lands and keep off the wild animals. In the cities You can't park a S.U.V. on a normal parking place, but a Smart can be parked. They use less benzine and pump less Co2 into air. It would be better if More people drive small cars like the Smart

Why park it when you can put it into your locker at work?  :-D

What?! I thought all cars had that. Maybe that's why I keep having crashes...  ;-)   :-D
