Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 20, 2012

I began tearing up when I saw this. The sort of bonds of friendship that can never be broken. Simple, true, childhood friendships. Thank you for the strip, Dana…and for telling us that less-than-imaginary friends can still be true.

I enjoy this strip also -

But does Marigold keep Phoebe from growing up or have we forgotten about Puff, the magic dragon…

Beautiful Sunday strip, Dana. Thanks!

Aww how Cute!!!

Had forgotten about running beneath the stars.

I love this strip. You are awesome, Dana.

Aww…..

going in my faves!

Been here – and a fan – since day 1. Dana, without a doubt, you just proved today WHY “Heavenly Nostrils” is THE #1 comic strip of 2012! Beautiful – awesome – it made me cry!

And you and I climb crossing the shapes of the morningAnd you and I reach over the sun for the riverAnd you and I climb clearer, towards the movementAnd you and I called over valleys of endless seas

Yes — “And You and I”

Nice poem Dana. Though I haven’t made a comment on here in a couple of weeks, I also have been reading everyday since day one.

Going back to a conversation a few weeks ago. In spite of the angst you mentioned from the powers that be, I don’t think Heavenly Nostrils is suffering from the name.

Five gold stars for you, Dana. This strip is fabulous!

Such a sweet strip.

These are the kinds of associations most withdrawn kids have with imaginary friends. I’ll keep this comment on a positive note by saying it’s a beautiful thing you’re doing, Dana.

The title on the book is “Unicorn Love”??? LOL!

The last panel is so cute…

Lovin’ it.

well,that’s it.i am solidly hooked.you can reel me in now….

Great story Dana!

awwwwthis is a great strip

Dana, you definitely got it right. I especially love the last 2 panels. Keep up the great work.

Where’s the ‘Like’ button?

sniff I’m not crying, there’s something in my eye…or allergies…sniff

Marvelous.

Very nice. But I wouldn’t sleep with my face that close to a unicorn’s back end.

Favorited. This strip has exponentially exceeded my expectations.

It wasn’t its intended purpose, but this one made me sad. One day Phoebe will grow up.

How sweet! Thank you.

Awwwwwwww!!!!

Excuse me, I… Have something in my eye.

This was just beautiful. I really needed this today, thanks, Dana.

Very Cute……LIKE

I’ve been wanting to comment on this strip the second it appeared, but I’m afraid nothing that comes to mind can possibly do justice to this. This just has such a huge affect to me. ::sniffles::

I just love and adore the tender expression on Marigold’s face at the end, as she gazes down at her child, all exhausted and passed out, totally trusting.

I want to own this one.

sweet!

Beautiful strip!

Love the earmuffs.

I hate the way this particular strip was remodeled. I still have the original structure and it’s way better than this present one.

<3

Is she really a princess?

100th save!

best poem ever (except for maybe some of mine)

Marigold farted in the last panel, which woke Phoebe up and ruined the moment. Or maybe this comment did. :^D
