First panel of a comic of a Smiling Friends comic featuring Allan introducing his dad to Charlie, Pim and Glep. This is the first panel. Allan is saying, "Hello everyone. Meet my daddy. He's here for the holidays."
Panel 2. Charlie, Pim and Glep are happy and waving. Pim says, "Hello daddy Alan! It's so cool your son is named after you!" and Charlie says "Yeah- good to meet you. I was actually named after my grandpa." and Glep says something in his own language.
Panel 3. Allan and his dad look annoyed. Allan has his arms crossed. Allan says, "Erm. What are you talking about? My dad's name is Alan. My name is Allan. They're different. I'm not named after him." and Allan's dad says, "I spent so many sleepless nights trying to think of the perfect original name for my baby boy."
Last panel. Charlie, Pim and Glep are looking uncomfortable and feeling awkward. Charlie says, "Yeah I uh...I don't think this bit is working as a comic, man. You need to be able to hear it and not read it to get the joke." and Pim says "Yeah...I have to agree. We can see in your speech bubbles that they're spelled different, but sound the same." Charlie then says "Yeah, like. This might work in the show, wh ere you can hear it...Like some kind of 'whose on first' bit. But its really not even good enough for that, though." Glep is nodding.
Was delighted to see Allans dad in the new Smiling Friends last night. I think his name should be Alan. Every member of Allans family should be named after the many misspellings people do of his name.
