It shouldn&#8217;t be too difficult, with what appear to be three depressed and\/or confused characters. That hat on the bear makes it obvious that it&#8217;s a talking bear (what other type of bear would wear a hat? Don&#8217;t be silly), and you might also get that same impression from the snake because he&#8217;s sitting at the table. Do you have that impression firmly established in your head? Yeah, you&#8217;re wrong. Or if you end up not being wrong, you might want to look into getting psychiatric help. Things start off with the ranger taking a bunch of kids camping, hoping to show them some constellations. This plan is interrupted by the snake, who has recently purchased a bat signal and is loathe to turn it off. Mayhem ensues, the snake gets the better of the ranger, and you might think that it would turn into a wacky adventure with the ranger trying to put one over on that rascally snake. Well, no. It turns out that the ranger likes getting beat up a little too much, and tries to escalate things with the snake. Meanwhile, the snake (and he&#8217;s called Sweetie Snake, which is too awesome for me not to mention) learns that he isn&#8217;t exactly punishing the ranger by attacking him, and asks that talking bear for advice. I should say no more, as you should see how the rest of this goes down for yourselves (and the fate of that bear had me laughing out loud), but it&#8217;s very much worth a look. And apparently future issues will have entirely different characters, which already has me wondering what Steve comes up with next. $5<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/?attachment_id=21313\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-21313\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-21313\" alt=\"mondaysaddies2\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2-229x300.jpg\" width=\"229\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2-229x300.jpg 229w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2-782x1024.jpg 782w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2-191x250.jpg 191w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2-133x175.jpg 133w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2-29x38.jpg 29w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2-164x215.jpg 164w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/mondaysaddies2.jpg 1656w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 229px) 100vw, 229px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Monday Saddies! #1 Go ahead, make a first impression based on that cover.
