What's there isn't terrible. But If these are his two best gags, and it's all down hill from here, then yea, I'd say this is a dead end. And it's way too soon to think about licensing, geezus. I think a strip with animals can't be a strip with animals for the sheer sake of appeal. There's got to be some real personality there. I can not harken back to sponge bob enough, the creator of which was a marine biologist. There is a real dynamic between the characters different personalities. I'm not seeing that here yet.

I think it is high time he balanced out his comics with a bit of lighter humour not revolving around politics and I can't wait for the official release. Being one of his avid readers, I think I speak for many when I say that Biggish Five will be received very well. The hard work and thought he has put into each character is already apparent in his few sneak previews. GO JEREMY GO! Jeremy’s new strip is FANTASTIC!

Any final judgement regarding this strip is a bit premature based on the samples provided in this blog post. Having seen a few weeks worth of material, I think the strip is inline with his audience and stated goals for the strip.

Terrible to pun, but this is a dead end. He should go for both, but change the subject he’s started out with. Terrible to pun, but this is a dead end.

Although starting your light & easy comic strip with an animal skull would be like Shakespeare calling Hamlet a screwball comedy. Seriously, though, I do want to see more.
