Poor guy’s so lonely…
Also, new vote button down there! Go vote!
MY TWEETY TWOTES- I should stop playing flash games online because I need to do important things like draw and work and play games on discs

Nice, like the sad look in the last panel
This is very similar to those guys who write “For a good time call ” on bathroom walls. And then nobody calls them because they think it’s homoerotic.. all they wanted to do was go hang gliding..
This comic has made me re-think avoiding all those guys in the vans with free candy…
You know, Dateline should take a look at the plight of the true free candy heroes.
There’s no trust in this world anymore *sigh*
Poor guy…
In Panel 2 and 3, shouldn’t the drivers head be on the other side of the panels? Take a good look at it.
The guy looks in the first panel to be turning his neck to look backwards, so maybe he can just twist his neck very far without breaking it.
I want some pink sugar-mush!
@Thomas: I’m guessing the view in panels 2 and 3 are from right on top of the drivers side headrest…
Guy could use a few lessons in capitalism.
…And so Leslie the (free!) candy man died lonely. His sugary, tooth decaying candy friends were no match for actual people with pulses.
I’m surprised the guy didn’t think of handing it out… but I don’t blame Bob!
@Dee, and as it turns out, “Free Candy” invites more cops then actual people.
That’s not a gold tooth.
It’s a sweet tooth.
trust in humanity is the greatest problem in our capitalistic system
you suck!
awwwwwwwwwwesome!
laughed out loud at this one. Nice texture & BG’s BTW!
good one, fsdf
I would be on Bob’s side here and be suspicious of anybody driving up to a park with free candy.
Wait for halloween
All I have to say is: This comic does NOT have artwork that is half-a##ed. Most web comics I know of have either been done using adobe flash which makes it look horrible or have used that crappy “Leinfelds” style artwork if it was done using classic pen and ink. For those of you who don’t know what Leinfelds style is, I’ll put it like this: It’s the crappy artwork you see in comics that came out in the 90’s. Most web comics I’ve read normally have decent to great writing in them. My main issue is that most of them have horrible artwork. Sure, Penny-Arcade has good writing though ever since it changed its art style to Leinfelds style, it just became horrible. If you want a good comic, you have to have three things.
1. Good artwork
2. Great writing
3. A premise that is well thought out, NOT Cliche, and was not taken from the popular norm from the blockade of Mainstream.
Sir, you have all of those. The artwork is entertaining to look at, the writing is thought up quite well (though the fad of having the characters being self aware should be dead, it’s not funny anymore because of one certain cartoon show that took the fad and abused it to death(hint: Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy)) Though yes, the premise is defiantly what you wouldn’t expect a web comic to be though having it take place in the suburbs of a city and have it be centered around a rich family has already been done with “The Osborn’s”.
That aside, this really is a great comic and could also stand up and compete with comics put out by Marval and DC. Final verdict: 8.5/10 or in classic James Rolfe style: 4 black kids being raised by white men out of 5.
Edit: If someone, somewhere doesn’t agree with my comment. Be reminded that this is strictly opinion so don’t go Bats### just because you disagree.
Your first content got caught by my spam filter, I don’t know why. It didn’t get intentionally deleted.
Oh man.
You sir, are a genius.
You made my horrible day go away into a fit of laughter.
[...] Out at Home comes this comic about a man who just wants to be [...]
That poor, poor man. With the fear of strangers putting razors or poison in candies, he can’t even give the stuff away on street corners or during Halloween anymore. And the stores get super b**chy if he hands out free candy in front of them.
Plus, that stuff’s not gonna last forever.
Poor soul probably found a MEGA SALE on candy and bought a ton thinking “Hey, who doesn’t like candy, right? I’ll be Mr. Popular! I’ll be just like Mr. Rogers! Kids will love me!”
This is definitely my favourite strip. Get in the van!
I wonder if the guy in the van had a lost puppy he needed help finding in return for that candy.
Made me simultaneously giggle and feel sad… The joke is funny, but I do feel bad for the poor candy guy. Maybe he should get an ice cream truck instead of a pedophile van… that would inspire more trust than a utility van with “Free Candy” Scrawled on the side.
