Diagnosis, Page 11

Chris Says: We really need to get a bunch of Dr. Space Baby onesies sewn up.*  We’d make a fortune.

*:  Jetpack not included.

Chad Says: We love to talk about his pencil and ink work, but Digges’s coloring on this page is just brilliant.  Five stars, boy-o!

Matt Says: I know my style lands more on the cartoonish side, but I really wanted create some sense of medical accuracy in showing Mitch’s glowing skeleton, just in case Scott of Polite Dissent ever saw it.

    Good job Matt. Your skeleton gets an A.

  2. Phil Looney

    I’ll be real with you guys. Dr. Space Baby is not my favorite, but I would totally give you money for a Dr. Space Baby onesie.

  3. Mike @ MHH

    So is Dr. Space Baby using an AMA-approved Anti-Death Ray Ray?

    What’s the malpractice insurance run at Awesome Hospital?

  4. Chris

    No jet pack, no sale.

    Apparently Dr. Space Baby is just like ever other doctor who lies when they say “This won’t hurt a bit.”

  5. Chad Bowers

    Mike @ MHH — have you been reading our scripts, dude? Fess up!

    Also, no malpractice insurance at Awesome Hospital. There is, however, Dr. Malpractice Time-Machine who occasionally goes into the past to undo negative side effects that come from the somewhat madcap practice of Awesome Medicine.

    I love Dr. Space Baby so, so much.

  7. Jon Hex

    I want to get a Dr. Space Baby onesie for my nephew while I get a guitar with a caduceus.

  8. NBarnes

    I suspect that it’s simply an Awesome Ray that projects beams of pure awesome. It doesn’t directly cure anything, but it’s very good supportive therapy to keep people alive until real cures can be implemented. Awesome supportive therapy, even.

  9. James

    I would TOTALLY buy a Dr. Space Baby onesie for my nephew!

    Wow, I think Dr Space Baby just gave that guy advanced phossie jaw in his entire skeleton.

    Naturally in the future everyone’s vaccinated against phossie jaw but he forgot that’s not the case yet. An understandable mistake.

    Also, do doctors really think we haven’t cracked their code yet? “This won’t hurt a bit” means “you’ll want to tear your teeth out with your fists”, while “This will sting a little” means “you’ll be surprised at your body’s unexplored capacity for experiencing pain”. Easy.
