This
strip was drawn in honor of Brodie’s last week before he left for
College. It was on my ideas list for a while, so this was the time to
do it. This one required no new drawings at all, I just recropped
characters I’d already drawn. The animation required only rotating and
flipping the characters so which character they were facing changed. I
like to think that’s part of the charm of it, but feel free to think of
it as laziness. To make it work everywhere, I did this by making an
animated GIF file, a format that’s been around almost 20 years, and is
natively supported in all web browses without any plug-ins. The
original strip showed the lyrics a stanza at a time, but I’ve
reformatted here so you can read them in all their glory at once. I
think the original idea/phrase “The Brodie Bunch” came up in a comment
in the forum, but I don’t remember now who it was, so I can’t give them
credit (sorry).
