: Selling Snowmen
Dec 22, 2006

I wonder if you even get a couple rocks or a carrot with that kit. Those crazy kids. I think I’ll market that idea, a build-it-yourself snowman kit. It would be a plastic bag of water with a few rocks in it. The instructions would start off by putting the water in your freezer…

After all the snow we got here, and the talk of snowmen the other day, I added a snowman category and went through the archives tagging all the comics featuring snowmen (mostly Wally’s little homemade friends). So I thought I’d do a snowman strip today. As I was going through the archives I was noticing the little penguin juvie salesmen, so I created a Penguin Juvie Stand category too. That gave me the idea to make today’s comic, which covers both categories (in the archives, sort by Category to view comics in those categories).

And on that note, let’s enjoy a classic piece of animation called The Snow Man. Possibly the creepiest snowman cartoon ever. You’ll notice the penguins in it, because you know, in cartoons and commercials all the arctic creatures live at BOTH poles.

    Hi Philip(Phizlo) I’m in club penguin and partying! You get free stuff and I found the new pin!!

  7. Mic says:

    Oops I mean I’ m partying.

  8. BriGuy says:

    I hope Osborne’s not stupid enough to actually buy that; of course he’s probably learned from past experience buying from the juvies is a bad idea.

  9. Hermes says:

    The juvies are so smart, who would have thought of make your own snowmen. I’ve seen make your own gingerbread houses before. I loved the video, but it was a little scary. It looked familiar, I think I’ve seen it before on TV when I was younger.

  10. Phizlo says:

    I just saw The Snow Man cartoon and it was so scary. 🙁
    I also think I saw Mickey Mouse. 🙂

  11. Finally! Another juvie comic! These are my favorite a side from the water ballon ones. 😀

    Did you know….

    Emperor penguins can mate when they are 4 years old and can live to be 20 years of age.

  12. pmv says:

    Isn’t it really dry in Antartica? Would the snow even stick to itself well enough to make snowmen? The juvies are really getting away with something if the snow is no good at making snowmen.

  13. Tyler Martin says:

    That’s true pmv, I had some more on it in the notes here:

  14. yes!!! the juvie penguins are at it again! they are so hilarious!! Tyler, you should make a comic with the juvie’s trying to sell holiday spirit. then they should sing or something…yeah, that’d be cool

  15. hey people
    yeah that cartoon is really creepy
    love the comic
    again Tyler, you need to work on the book
    im getting tired of it always saying
    pages complete: 1 out of 72

  16. Kevin Wilson says:

    I guess a do it yourself snowman kit can’t be any worse than dehydrated water – all you do is add water to the pack…..

  17. some weird guy says:

    [fight10]

  18. some weird guy says:

    i love the comic!

  19. Dad says:

    lol .. snowman cartoon .. was there..

  20. Hey everyone! Here’s the fact:

    Polar bears only rarely catch seals in open water. They are far more successful at hunting them on the sea ice.

    Great comic Tyler!

  21. Penguin Guru says:

    You need to make more Juvie comic strips. You also need to make more shirts in the shop. I’m getting tired of the progress bar too. But I know why. Everytime you try to do a progect like that, we all get angry at you for not posting new comics. So lay off guys! Tyler has beter things to do then entertain us. That’s a very creepy cartoon. Very scary!

  22. New Guy says:

    That cartoon was wrong… was it suppose to have sound because it didn’t for me

  23. Ace says:

    SUPER CREEPY!!! :creepy:

  27. Tyler Martin says:

    No Andrew, you pay. Goodbye.

  28. here is my daily obvious penguin fact:
    penguins eat fish

    ha ha! i was dying 2 c those juvie penguins again!

  29. Sheena says:

    There the little juvies go again, trying to scam Osborne. If he REALLY wanted a snowman, he could just ask Wally. He is a MASTER at the art.

    Then again, he is pretty good at amking snow-polar bears
    😀 :mrgreen:

  30. Sheena says:

    Sorry, I meant making.

  31. Sheena says:

    Why are the clouds in the third panel orange? 😕

  32. the s in snowman is a $
    ya noticed that?????

  33. Phizlo says:

    I wonder where and when the juvies learned to write words, let alone the dollar sign($). 🙂
    $NOWMEN 🙂

  34. io says:

    $nowmen for sale.

  35. i want a snowman! i want a snowman!!!!

  36. Cristina says:

    ah, ya gotta love the penguin juvies.
    So did andrew get blocked or something or did his post just get shortend?
    I’m confused.

  37. I think he got blocked for being annoying. At least I hoped he did.

    I think that cartoon thing was creepy too!

  38. io says:

    im guessing Andrews IP adress is blocked from posting here. Merry Christmas

  39. Penguin Guru says:

    MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!! Man I got so much penguins stuff this Christmas I could bury my my pet BULLDOG in it! No Wally and Osborne stuff though. ;-( But I did get a Happy Feet video game for my new DS! Sorry for the unrealated comment. Very funny comic Tyler! LOL!

  40. Zack says:

    Merry Christmas.

  41. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERY1
    I LOVE U ALL!!!!!

  42. MERRY CHRISMAS EVERY1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    (EVERY1=EVERYONE)

  43. io says:

    i became a member in club penguin for christmas!!!

  44. New Guy says:

    I got everything I wanted for Christmas this year, that is everything I wanted last year… So no, I didn’t get anything good…(sigh) O well its the thought that counts

  45. Penguin Guru says:

    Sorry New Guy… That’s kinda sad. I’m thinking about becoming a membe of C.P. too.

  46. ostrich girl says:

    Merry Xmas (true, 2 days late but like New Guy says, it’s the thought that counts)
    i didn’t like the cartoon. it was freaky. but the seals where cute
    i love the juvies. they’re so chubby. and smart.
    nice.

  47. OrAnGe JuIcE says:

    Ha ha… very funny. But those penguins are clever. Why sell snowmen and take the fun out of building them? Not so clever accepting the fact that they ARE in a field of snow.

    I saw the video too. There’s a twist on Frosty I didn’t need to see

  48. i dont get it. The penguin juvies sell stuff for money but where are they going to spend the money?
