Over the Hedge, created by T Lewis and Michael Fry, takes a freshly skewed look at suburban living from the perspective of the animals who lived there first. The strip stars RJ, a mischievous raccoon, and Verne, his sensitive best-buddy turtle. Together they fight to save their wooded wonderland from the evils of encroaching suburbia but end up becoming distracted by wide-screen TVs, discarded fast food containers and the fun of wreaking havoc on the local homeowners' association.

It’s hard to believe that white (light) contains all the colors of the spectrum.

No offence, but this is a booooooooooooooring arch :)

Well, it is not totally whitened out. The text is still black. But perhaps tomorrow that problem is solved too….

Half the fun of “Over The Hedge” is just seeing how long the writers can stretch out an arc.
Kind of like the things that are done on “Family Guy” with the extended take whenever anyone knocks their shin into something, or the looooong pauses!

I record the rerun of the Daily Show and the Colbert Report so I am always two days behind.

white is all colors…

Maybe it’s not white at all. Could Verne and RJ be in front of the strip looking in and not realize where they are, and all we can see is the dialogue?

“Calm down, Verne, or you’ll sprain your spleen!”

Unless the light is reflected, filtered, or comes from an excited spectra source, light comes from black radiator sources and produces all colors in relation to the source temperature. Examining an area with an optical diffuser allows the determination of the ambient color.
Leaving a blank strip in the open will weather the background color. Watch out for the yellow snow.

I miss Hammy!

Oh Hammy is there, if you squint, in the background, with Larry M Mouse playing 4 handed Bridge. The albino squid is probably blocking your view of them.

in pigment theory, white is the absence of all color; so Verne is right. In light theory, RJ is right.

I haven’t been thrilled with the strip for quite a while. I think “Over The Hedge” is more like “Over The Shark” at this point. I’m just about ready to pull it off the power rotation.

This week has been the best art work this comic has seen in ages.
