“Monica”
by my son, Eddie
age: 4½
Yep, yesterday was my birthday, and my son wanted to give me a gift, so he drew his version of Monica.
For anyone else that would like to send a gift from my wish list, I’ll send you a hand-drawn thank-you pic if you include a return address.

Haha, aww that’s cute!! Tell Eddie it’s really good!! XD
Taking after his dad already!
Many happy’s for yesterday Paul.
Many happy returns (and updates).
Happy Birthday!
Tell Eddie he’s off to a good start!
For his age that’s not bad, heck for twice his age that’s still not bad.
Has it really been over 4 years? I remember when we first heard about the cute little guy. Time sure does seem to fly when you’re reading a great comic
Happy belated b’day
Love the expression on the face
He has her boob down well
and i would be fighting you for that bullwhip
(if i had the cash)
do you have the fedora?
you MUST have the fedora..
the outfit would not be complete without the fedora..
It’s weird, the face looks particularly distinct to me. Is it just pareidolia, I wonder? Or could it be more to do with the way the brain is built to read faces in entirely different ways than the rest of the body affecting the level of detail in the work?
Either way, it’s utterly adorable. Hope you had a swell day, and many more to come!
~D.
The face did come out looking quite well. Hope you had a wonderful day, Paul!
Happy late birthday Paul! He’s well on his way to taking over the comic one day!
Happy Birthday. If we get you all those tools, how are you going to find time to draw?
Happy Birthday and may there be many more!
A cute face, flowing hair, big hands and big feet — Yep, he’s got the model down nicely! Well done young sir!
Happy Belated Birthday!
I think the picture is adorable; happy belated birthday! but it’s cute how the ‘other’ picture of Monica from the ebay art entry seems to be looking up at it like “I’m MUCH cuter than that!! and I had a HAIR CUT!”
Has it been over 4 years since Eddie arrived?? Wow! Happy birthday and thanks for many years of a must-read comic!
Didn’t see where I could put in a return address, but don’t worry about it. It’s no biggie, I’ve been reading your work for years, 11 bucks isn’t that much for that amount of comics. Happy B-Day!
-D
Happy birthday, Paul. May you have many, many more to come.
I can just hear the animated discussion she’s having with Tepóz about the pressures of being responsible for the Golem Girls while being kept in the dark.
Happy Birthday, sir.
Sa-LUTE!!
Wow. Very, very good. This illustrates the dangers of ‘poiting’ and sneezing at the same time.
I especially like the uni-brow expression!
Happy B-Day!
Happy, belated, birthday.
Something’s on it’s way that You will like…(or is already there)
Funny to analyse how a kid sees Monica: The body is the most important ,then the head and hair (!), and then the rest of it..
I think it’s a nice perspective shot from a 4 1/2 year old eye level…
When you’re four, that’s how you see adults.
Many happy returns of the day!
Happy B-Day…
And tell Eddie to keep up the good work…
Spiral-bound notebooks with three-hole punches have been fairly common for as long as i can recall – if anything, it makes them easier to keep track of.
For example…
And Where is Dietzel???
Can’t have Moica without Dietzel.
Unless she is at work …
Great, kids already a better artist than me. Thanks for that.
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
