You rarely see this format in this comic. Usually it’s one panel, a series of silent panels or a forth wall breaking panel

Won’t work for me. I can’t reach all of my back even with the back side of my bear hands.

Is…is this the FIRST actual OTM comic strip? I LOVE IT!!

Is that a back handed compliment?

Why didn’t the blonde guy offer to do it for him? Oh. He’s shy.

Same with Nair…don’t ask.

Burn! Get it?
