Amused by observing content. Upon completion, I pressed it into my own birth givers face to make content amuse them also. Satisfaction comes from content surprising my idea hatch, very unexpected. The drawing pleases my eye holes, I am comparatively inadequate when making renderings of surroundings. This complete stranger would say purchase this to be pleased in a similar manner. Stranger offers reassuring credibility to your purchase and affirms your opinion this good content.

Present for my sister who lives this artist and follows their Instagram. She really enjoyed it,though she might have seen some of the comics before there was plenty of unseen content.

I adored this. From the drawings to the writing I just thought it was amazing. These alien creatures may become may new favourite characters. It’s both hilarious and relatable and I love the way they explain everyday things that just put into perspective how insane some of the things we do are.
Love it

Bought this as a small gift for a friend as I know they follow the artist on Instagram. The book seemed well made, arrived in good packaging, and the recipient was happy with it.
The only reason I’ve put 4 stars instead of 5 is that if you already follow the author/artist on Instagram you’ll have already seen the majority of these comics, which is fine but if you’re looking for lots of new stuff this isn’t for you.

I feel bad giving this a not-5-star review in light of everyone’s enthusiasm – it is absolutely brill.
But I feel it needs saying – if you’ve followed Nathan Pyle’s Instagram for a while, you will have seen 80%+ of these already. I felt a little short-changed from my £12 purchase at first because of that.
That said, of course, the guy’s been posting brilliant free content daily for ages and deserves to be rewarded.
If you’re a die-hard fan, just don’t go into this expecting a full set of originals, that’s all.
