Alex says this is a true story. His daughter had her first slumber party last night and he had to go check the weird noise twice. So he made the experience into a comic. This is just part of being a parent. You have to put on a brave face to reassure your kids, and of course, to appear the hero. I’ve put on a brave face to investigate so many bugs, spiders, random creatures, strangers, weird noises, smells, and monsters under the bed that nothing scares me anymore. Alex says the majority of his comics at Narcolepsy Inc. are drawn from real life.
