This is my new favorite strip. Lyle being genuinely touched was a heck of a surprise.
Steven Saunders
I've seen these shirts countless times and wondered "who would buy and/or wear these?". Now, I finally have my answer
Joe Locastro
This has big Kurt Russell gives Charles Bronson a birthday present vibes.
Nathaniel Keen
please sell this shirt
Douglas Wykstra
I just realized that these shirts are the male-coded version of Cheryl Strayed Inspirational Phrases™.
Meadow Green
I really like Philippe’s little sing song delivery when the shirt arrives

I'm glad you decided to run this strip instead of the previously scheduled "achewood turns out to be a brief dream in the dying moments of the elephant man's mind"

This is one of those things of our current day that I wasn’t expecting Achewood to engage with, but I’m really glad it did. NEVER DOUBT a momentary diversion on the road to the grave BORN IN September 2001 BECAUSE GOD DOESNT MAKE MISTAKES BUT my wife(?) WILL
John Robinson
Perhaps a shirt of the last panel, then?
J. Alex
I like it when the cartoon animals are nice to each other.
J Hardy Carroll
A Lyle shirt needs to smell like overpowering BO immediately, and will.
K. Unknown
this is the kind of heartwarming shit i needed today

That came through loud and clear. It does not matter what the thing was, just that it was there to provide a furtive birth with partial concealment from predators or neighbors. Stealth is health
kdusjjdhxksj
A particularly strong showing in an already great run
Corrine Bredin
Who?? Who says this thing? Direct me to this person or persons at once and we will get this cleared up double-quick.

Philippe gives Lyle some much needed love. Bonus: Lyle receives love and manages not to hurt the giver. That's tough for a guy like him. I just realized I feel really really bad for Lyle.
Chris Onstad
[bows, blinks, asks if you are interested in a lawnmower with a flat tire]
Chris Onstad
Good, good, run with this
Chris Onstad
I see what you did there with the extra strip day
Rob Dalton
(It is these throw-away lines that kill me, Maester Onstad—the rollover text of yore, the divine flailing in the margins, the off-hand remark that slays. Thank you for your inspired degeneracy, and for soldiering on so that your army of disconsolate flibbertigibbets might find occasion to smile as the weary world winds down.)
Rob Dalton
I pictured a dumpster behind an Arby's, Lyle's mother grinding her teeth on a discarded wooden paint paddle as Lyle emerged, blinking and deranged, into the unpious, piss-blasted tableau; here comes a specious boy.
Charles Wheeler
Oh my goodness
Allie
We need more wholesome ache wood, to balance out the soul crushing! Maybe as a counterpoint to fuck-you friday; perhaps Wholesome Wednesday?
Hilary Kitz
This is perfect
Jay Williams
“Sensitive Lyle”. Sure he’s a Registered Asshole, but even he’s not immune to HUUUUUGS!
Andy Kopas
ah man, finally the companion strip to ACE OF GRADES!!!
Chris Onstad
I wish I could but it would be to unleash visual blight upon the world
Chris Onstad
with the child's face in the worst armpit in the character universe?
Chris Onstad
It's not his stance so much as his involuntary peristalsis of said food. Although he is no stranger to stunt-hurling.
Chris Onstad
I was hoping to convey that Lyle was of such low birth that his frightened mother-animal was just out in the wild using a boulder or truck tire to shield his glistening slime-form from a hungry jackal or badger as it emerged from her.
Chris Onstad
Some jokes should not be worn. I worry the wearer would simply be quickly identified as a clueless elder and heavily discounted.
Alexander Rediger
Only Philippe
SignOfZeta
Anyone who says Achewood isn’t back and better than ever can f themselves.
Luke Harper
Mah heart…
joey
This might be my favorite new era achewood
Oppido
Philippe showed surprising insight here, but I guess that's what happens when you walk by a Truth Vase every day.
Chris
I WAKE UP EVERY DAY AND HONOR WHERE IT IS 5PM is a pretty great "Life As Observed By Phillipe" line
Zen Window
this was going one of two ways and my day is brighter for the path it took so thanks
GruntyGinMan
Lyle loves the little shaver
Sebastian Payne
so uh you're going to be selling this shirt in the store right
Don Rowe
I knew exactly how this was going to go, and I'm very pleased
Shawn Warren
I thank the Good Lord everyday that I was not born behind something
Matthew Harris
Finally, the existence of those hideous and mind-numbing T-shirts is justified
Elyse
Lyle fans our time is now
Chris Dubie
I am Lyle and I was Born Behind Something is an absolute all timer
Dan Ford
This is...oddly touching, which has been the case with a couple different Lyle moments in this Glorious Achewood Revival. I love it.
Cf Duddy
I knew Lyle would love this idea 🖤
Sedric And Charlie
that las panel genuinely caught me off-guard. Bravo sir, hats are off to you
Bungus Bronbo
Lyle's really gone through some personal growth, huh
Julie (HiDeeHoGal)
Oh my goodness. A mystery indeed. 🥲
Distant Egg Song
Philippe managed to pick out the perfect audience for that style of shirt. It's no wonder he was able to out-Sharper-Image the Sharper Image
Ben Wissett
Well damn. Never expected to tear up at one of these fucking shirts. Philippe is such a sweet wee guy.
Lennon McAuliffe

Stephen Ellis
This is a great strip.
Brian Sutton
Philippe is standing on it (Lyle's heartstrings edition).
Mustafa Beg
A man's Public Stance on appetizers is the note-perfect vignette we never knew we needed.
Rob Dalton
"I am Lyle and I was born BEHIND SOMETHING" made me snort coffee.
Billy Keenly
Oh yeah this is the stuff.
Jacquelyn R Walters
Dawww, that Lyle is just a big ol' softy
Christopher Hastings
What a blessing to witness a moment decades in the making.
Greg Gheorghiu
This one is really good
Ragnarok Johnson
Not the first time I've teared up at an Achewood but definitely the first time at one with Lyle
prayergroupie
"I am LYLE and I was born BEHIND SOMETHING" is pretty choice
Hunter
The little otter respects the degenerate tiger.
Chris Barrios
It feels so good to be seen.
Linus Lee
I *wish* I could pull this off.
Nicole Lyden
Aw that’s the cutest
Lionstooth
soooo new merch drop soon?
