Thats strange. I'll re upload see if the fixes.

I liked it but there are a few things I don't think are working...

The second panel seems redundant (and what's with the 'tick tock'?)

Having the characters speak in different fonts makes it look amateurish. I'd say stick to the one you've used for the dad.

Is that a typo in the A.L.F. panel? "badn"?

Is it her biological clock ticking?
Maybe if we could see their laptop screens you could have her looking at something to suggest that.

Points taken on the fonts.

Yeah, that would be the way to go.

Hi there, Gavin,

I didn't get that it was her biological clock, but that's quite a neat idea. If you could made that clearer, somehow.. I thought it was the tick-tocking of her typing something.

I liked the interaction between the couple, but didn't really get the punchline: help please? :S

If it is Apple, then it is probably some sort of app no?

I don't get the joke because I have no idea who that character is.

Personally, I knew it was Alf, but didn't -- and still don't -- get the punchline...

[EDIT]
Ah! Okay, I just realised that that is a cat sandwich(!) Okay, that drawing needs to be clearer, cos I have only just realised now after studying the picture for ages lol!

So... I assume ALF eats cats...?

Alf eats cats. He's the cat deterent.

Well this has kinda bombed lol! No worries :D

I liked it. It were good.

I remember Alf when it was on, but I didn't know he ate Cats.
So although I liked it, I didn't get that specific relevance.
