Just Kids Playing

Kids playing alone, oh, my... They'll definitely probably get in trouble!

This comic was created in 2006, I guess, and was originally published in an old fanzine I made. Believe or not, but this funny children quarrel was based on a true story!

And look how interesting is the difference between the comics in brazilian portuguese and in english! It was not simply a translation work but a complete adaptation. I had to learn nursery rhymes in english and create a text totally different from the brazilian song "Atirei o Pau no Gato" and the kid's rhyme "Cala a boca já morreu" (I believe this rhyme is from the Northeast, where I live). I never had heard this "Eeny, Meeny, Miney, Moe" song before, but I found it on Google and other sources. Well, this comic seems good anyway and didn't get out of context!
