Maybe it's because the character looks like a literal child. And, yes, that would make it a bad comic. So, I agree with your interpretation.

And I still think it's a bad comic.

To everyone downvoting the people who thought it was a child at first: Crop out the first cell in the comic and send it to all your friends and ask, is this a drawing of a child or an adult on a date?

Relax, no one is obliged to agree with anyone. You thought it was a kid, I disagree. I didn't think it was a kid, you disagree. We each decide whether to give upvote or downvote to the post and go on with our lives.

And my question was legit, with no malicious intent. It really didn't cross my mind that it was a kid, but anyway....

My reply was written while perfectly calm, with no malicious intent. 🤷

My last paragraph was added as an edit when looking at Jax's comment and seeing it was downvoted into oblivion. It wasn't directed at you.

Oh, I know. I still hate it. "Super deformed". Yeah, that sounds about right.
