Welcome to Hotflashes & Hangovers, a metafictional web comic series full of fun, frolic… and squids. The story of how this comic came to be goes back many decades…
My earliest memory of a cartoon was being creeped out by Rupert the Bear. In the stories, Rupert had a perfect human child’s body and perched upon his neck was a freakishly realistic bear’s head. In my baby-brain, I thought this poor kid had somehow become horribly disfigured. But as a toddler, how was I supposed to understand what anthropomorphism was?

If I may suggest, your very small (probably juvenile) Kraken would probably like a few Dumbo octopuseseses, and Vampire Squid to play with here; they wouldn't take up too much room, and the Dumbos are cuter than cats; so... huge click potential. (yeah, real, you can look them up.... heh heh heh heh......)

Love the art style, and it's refreshing to read a comic these days that isn't all about anxiety and depression. Especially in a comic this meta. Great work.
thank you very much for sharing your work, I like it very much, it’s very funny, absurd and quirky, everything I like ! <3
Many thanks, Mimi! Guessing by your name you might like to check out my Ancient French Ancestor on Instagram! I am half French Canadian (mom’s side).😊
Load More Replies...I love how you put yourself in these. You’re kind and thoughtful too. Also I love how you melted during the hot flash! You can call me Eve or Evey, either works :3
Aww, thanks for the kind words, Evey. ❤️I also have a cat character named Forrest (named after my own kitty). If you want to check him out he is in my H&H Instagram account.🐱
