This is my new favorite strip. Lyle being genuinely touched was a heck of a surprise.

2024-04-03 11:47:47 +0000 UTCI've seen these shirts countless times and wondered "who would buy and/or wear these?". Now, I finally have my answer
Steven Saunders
2024-03-30 02:55:05 +0000 UTCThis has big Kurt Russell gives Charles Bronson a birthday present vibes.
Joe Locastro
2024-03-30 00:12:31 +0000 UTCplease sell this shirt
Nathaniel Keen
2024-03-29 12:34:08 +0000 UTCI just realized that these shirts are the male-coded version of Cheryl Strayed Inspirational Phrases™.
Douglas Wykstra
2024-03-26 01:59:07 +0000 UTCI really like Philippe’s little sing song delivery when the shirt arrives

2024-03-24 15:10:09 +0000 UTCI'm glad you decided to run this strip instead of the previously scheduled "achewood turns out to be a brief dream in the dying moments of the elephant man's mind"
Datura
2024-03-23 14:37:58 +0000 UTCThis is one of those things of our current day that I wasn’t expecting Achewood to engage with, but I’m really glad it did. NEVER DOUBT a momentary diversion on the road to the grave BORN IN September 2001 BECAUSE GOD DOESNT MAKE MISTAKES BUT my wife(?) WILL

2024-03-23 12:46:42 +0000 UTCPerhaps a shirt of the last panel, then?

2024-03-23 04:26:00 +0000 UTCI like it when the cartoon animals are nice to each other.

2024-03-23 04:22:24 +0000 UTCA Lyle shirt needs to smell like overpowering BO immediately, and will.
J Hardy Carroll
2024-03-23 02:22:39 +0000 UTCthis is the kind of heartwarming shit i needed today

2024-03-23 01:25:50 +0000 UTCThat came through loud and clear. It does not matter what the thing was, just that it was there to provide a furtive birth with partial concealment from predators or neighbors. Stealth is health

2024-03-22 23:33:50 +0000 UTCA particularly strong showing in an already great run

2024-03-22 23:27:50 +0000 UTCWho?? Who says this thing? Direct me to this person or persons at once and we will get this cleared up double-quick.

2024-03-22 22:12:54 +0000 UTCPhilippe gives Lyle some much needed love. Bonus: Lyle receives love and manages not to hurt the giver. That's tough for a guy like him. I just realized I feel really really bad for Lyle.

Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 21:07:50 +0000 UTCGood, good, run with this
Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 21:07:02 +0000 UTCI see what you did there with the extra strip day
Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 21:06:33 +0000 UTC(It is these throw-away lines that kill me, Maester Onstad—the rollover text of yore, the divine flailing in the margins, the off-hand remark that slays. Thank you for your inspired degeneracy, and for soldiering on so that your army of disconsolate flibbertigibbets might find occasion to smile as the weary world winds down.)
Rob Dalton
2024-03-22 21:00:55 +0000 UTCI pictured a dumpster behind an Arby's, Lyle's mother grinding her teeth on a discarded wooden paint paddle as Lyle emerged, blinking and deranged, into the unpious, piss-blasted tableau; here comes a specious boy.
Rob Dalton
2024-03-22 20:58:17 +0000 UTCOh my goodness
Charles Wheeler
2024-03-22 20:48:44 +0000 UTCWe need more wholesome ache wood, to balance out the soul crushing! Maybe as a counterpoint to fuck-you friday; perhaps Wholesome Wednesday?
Allie
2024-03-22 20:33:03 +0000 UTCThis is perfect
Hilary Kitz
2024-03-22 20:27:46 +0000 UTC“Sensitive Lyle”. Sure he’s a Registered Asshole, but even he’s not immune to HUUUUUGS!
Jay Williams
2024-03-22 19:23:58 +0000 UTCah man, finally the companion strip to ACE OF GRADES!!!
Andy Kopas
2024-03-22 19:22:42 +0000 UTCI wish I could but it would be to unleash visual blight upon the world
Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 19:16:16 +0000 UTCwith the child's face in the worst armpit in the character universe?
Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 19:15:40 +0000 UTCIt's not his stance so much as his involuntary peristalsis of said food. Although he is no stranger to stunt-hurling.
Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 19:14:54 +0000 UTCI was hoping to convey that Lyle was of such low birth that his frightened mother-animal was just out in the wild using a boulder or truck tire to shield his glistening slime-form from a hungry jackal or badger as it emerged from her.
Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 19:14:17 +0000 UTCSome jokes should not be worn. I worry the wearer would simply be quickly identified as a clueless elder and heavily discounted.
Chris Onstad
2024-03-22 19:12:27 +0000 UTCOnly Philippe

2024-03-22 18:37:43 +0000 UTCThis might be my favorite new era achewood
joey
2024-03-22 18:30:46 +0000 UTCPhilippe showed surprising insight here, but I guess that's what happens when you walk by a Truth Vase every day.
Oppido
2024-03-22 18:26:57 +0000 UTCI WAKE UP EVERY DAY AND HONOR WHERE IT IS 5PM is a pretty great "Life As Observed By Phillipe" line
Chris
2024-03-22 18:26:39 +0000 UTCthis was going one of two ways and my day is brighter for the path it took so thanks
Zen Window
2024-03-22 18:20:27 +0000 UTCLyle loves the little shaver
GruntyGinMan
2024-03-22 18:20:25 +0000 UTCso uh you're going to be selling this shirt in the store right
Sebastian Payne
2024-03-22 18:17:47 +0000 UTCI knew exactly how this was going to go, and I'm very pleased
Don Rowe
2024-03-22 18:05:40 +0000 UTCI thank the Good Lord everyday that I was not born behind something
Shawn Warren
2024-03-22 17:57:33 +0000 UTCFinally, the existence of those hideous and mind-numbing T-shirts is justified
Matthew Harris
2024-03-22 17:46:00 +0000 UTCLyle fans our time is now
Elyse
2024-03-22 17:45:46 +0000 UTCI am Lyle and I was Born Behind Something is an absolute all timer
Chris Dubie
2024-03-22 17:42:38 +0000 UTCThis is...oddly touching, which has been the case with a couple different Lyle moments in this Glorious Achewood Revival. I love it.
Dan Ford
2024-03-22 17:39:49 +0000 UTCI knew Lyle would love this idea 🖤
Cf Duddy
2024-03-22 17:38:40 +0000 UTCthat las panel genuinely caught me off-guard. Bravo sir, hats are off to you
Sedric And Charlie
2024-03-22 17:29:17 +0000 UTCLyle's really gone through some personal growth, huh
Bungus Bronbo
2024-03-22 17:28:47 +0000 UTCOh my goodness. A mystery indeed. 🥲
Julie (HiDeeHoGal)
2024-03-22 17:27:09 +0000 UTCPhilippe managed to pick out the perfect audience for that style of shirt. It's no wonder he was able to out-Sharper-Image the Sharper Image
Distant Egg Song
2024-03-22 17:24:15 +0000 UTCWell damn. Never expected to tear up at one of these fucking shirts. Philippe is such a sweet wee guy.

Brian Sutton
2024-03-22 17:16:24 +0000 UTCA man's Public Stance on appetizers is the note-perfect vignette we never knew we needed.
Mustafa Beg
2024-03-22 17:15:26 +0000 UTC"I am Lyle and I was born BEHIND SOMETHING" made me snort coffee.
Rob Dalton
2024-03-22 17:13:35 +0000 UTCOh yeah this is the stuff.
Billy Keenly
2024-03-22 17:13:08 +0000 UTCDawww, that Lyle is just a big ol' softy

Christopher Hastings
2024-03-22 17:08:54 +0000 UTCThis one is really good
Greg Gheorghiu
2024-03-22 17:06:57 +0000 UTCNot the first time I've teared up at an Achewood but definitely the first time at one with Lyle
Ragnarok Johnson
2024-03-22 17:06:39 +0000 UTC"I am LYLE and I was born BEHIND SOMETHING" is pretty choice
