In comics order: 1) an octopus frantically cleans a room while a small packrat looks on in delight, 2) a beaver chews up his pencil in class while all his friends look on in horror, 3) and elephant pushes a baby and dog on a carriage while running. She shouts "WHEEE!!!" and the dog hollers "AWOOO!!!", and 4) a little girl is on a walk in the rain with her dad. She points out a squirrel that is climbing a nearby tree.

This is Sadie. She was finally reunited with her human, astronaut Christina Koch, after her mom’s voyage around the moon took her the furthest any human has ever been from their dog. She can't wait to hear all about the universe. 14/10 (IG: astro_christina)

Astronauts have landed their rocket ship on a strange world and are checking out the alien life forms. Let's hope they are friendlier than ICE
I never looked at things and drew them until I went to art school. Before then I just thought of things and drew them. I still feel most comfortable working like that. It might not be the best way.
I think it’s definitely YOUR way. This is awesome.
