My biggest problem with this cartoon was making the pigeons look huge. It's very difficult to do that if you don't have something of a known size to compare them to. Since this is prehistoric, the only reference I felt I could logically give are trees, but they could also be small, tree-shaped plants.
I consider this cartoon a failure because I missed the obvious answer, which would have immediately both driven the joke home and made it much funnier: that rodent in the bird's mouth should have been a tiny caveman.
Sometimes, I surprise even myself with my dumbassness.

Okay, so your dumb@ssness is the equivalent of more than half the populations' epiphanies.
Play nice in there, and thanks for your comic -- perfecteded or not!
I can't count the number of times I thought of the perfect punch line 11 hours after I needed it. Your work is brilliant. Don't tear yourself down over it.
i did wonder a little bit about this one but heh being funny every time is tough...not for the faint of heart...keep up the good work!
I thought the trees were way off in the distance..
But honestly... you are much too critical of your work... but then again.. I guess that's why you are so good.. always critiquing yourself..
Those are rodents?
LOL - I thought they WERE tiny people!!
So this cartoon worked with me.

an artist is his own worst critic..
and just remember-- marmaduke comics are NEVER funny, so if one of yours slips through the cracks you shouldn't worry about it too much.
Nothing that contains pigeons can be a failure. I love this cartoon anyway!!
