Last week was Morning Glories artist Joe Eisma’s son Logan’s bithday (happy birthday again, Logan!), and to that end Eisma made a joke that now that Logan is three, it’s time for him to start inking Joe’s work. In return, I noted that Logan should illustrate a Morning Glories spin-off entitled Morning Glory Babies, featuring baby versions of all the characters (think Muppet Babies, but much more violent). So of course Joe Eisma drew it!
I don’t think we’re going to be seeing any specific Morning Glories spin-offs anytime soon, but I can’t help but note that Morning Glory Babies would make an amazing one-page back-up strip for Morning Glories, if Nick is as inclined to run with the idea as Joe was. Picture it now – a regular adult Daramount standing in a playroom featuring the babies, with the dialogue bubble, “Ok, kids, we’re going for the day – and Casey, don’t you burn anything down!”
Check behind the cut for an additional baby “David”, as well as a colored baby Jade by Alex Sollazzo, MG’s colorist.
