Panel Three is priceless! I have never seen a leopard on the verge of collapse before. Brilliantly done! And the cubs... Well, it's obvious they're feeling the heat despite Africa giving her all to shade them from the sun. But I admire the brother trying to keep the peace so Mom can concentrate. And it looks like he's on the verge of tears. That's a good way to keep his eyes wet, especially while walking in a hot. steamy desert.
We can only hope that the next page will provide some sort of oasis for our leopard family, so they can put their old life behind them. After all, I can't help but wonder if we'll get to meet the cub's father soon. She chose him over Chui, after all. Will he let them call him Dad? Or am I so eager to find out what happens next, that I'm jumping the gun, here?
What can I say? The story, and the drawings, are just that good.

Hello! Here again with another critique! I will say that you inspire me so much with your outstanding works and comic pages! Here, we're rushed into some very obvious heat, and it's very easy to see that not only are they exhausted, they need water, yet there's none around for miles, which adds to the drama and excitement, and the drive to read more! Another thing crossing my mind is the fact that Africa can be rough with her cubs, however, in these pages, she is shading her cubs from the sun, which I find to be very motherly, and shows the instinct that mothers feel to protect their children. The expressions and postures on this particular page are important too. Panels 1 and 3 show how tired Africa is by her head held low and her open mouth with furrowed brows. I love your works, and am seriously looking forwards to the next pages! You're amazing!

And then by the subtle jab at comic logic, we brought forth rain of water and meat for them to enjoy. jkjk.
I love the shading effect you did on the cubs! So cute.

It is a fairly common name in Africa, and I do think that it has Arabic origins, yes
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
if it is, it's gonna mean: "my daughter"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Also Swahili for 'daughter'
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
But that's not Arabic.

I don't know what it means in Arabic, it might be 'daughter' too, but it is daughter in Swahili

It's very hard to tell when you will be 'there yet' if your journey doesn't really have a final destination aside from 'someplace safe to raise your cubs'...

If Africa was smart she move at night or the evening .

I was thinking the same but its probably dangerous. There could be lions in the area, they hunt at dusk or Chui might be flanking them 😨

Actually a lot predators do hunt at dark so you're right. But I don't think lazy ass chui is going to chase after them. Someone would steal his hard stolen land.

This is Australia in the summer... it can get up to 40 degrees celcius! (approx 104 Fahrenheit). It's winter now, though, so I can't relate XD

Another jaw-dropping work of art!
One question: Mosi is an itty bitty kitty with ze muzclez. Do leopards have muscles like that when they're as young as he is?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you! Haha well, I imagined that he must have lost a few liquids recently and his muscles are showing through more at the moment. That's not necessarily a healthy sign for a cub though D:

Hey, you know kids, mama is suffering worst. You two still have shade from Mama Africa xD
back to the real topic.. Hot you say? Is it, I dunno, hot like Death Valley? My hometown is only a couple of dreadful miles and a few hours away :'D

The fact that they're using their mom as shade is a clever idea, but dear god I feel bad at how hot it is for them
