I have to say that this simply amazing. Overall, I would give this piece a 4.5 star rating out of 5 stars. First off, the technique is in full force, along with the vision. The shading of the background, bench, and characters all come off well-seen and well-made; the detail of the fur and feet are perfectly converted from the CGI animation of the movie to 2-D paper. The use of darker shading on the upper bodies of the characters allows the viewer to be greatly impacted, and their eyes are drawn to the main part of the comic. I do have to say that since the uniforms and upper bodies were dark, it took me a moment to locate what was going on in the first panel, which took some of the impact of the art from me. Now, the comic is quite original for these two characters, as I have not seen them drawn in this situation nor in black-and-white too often, yet the plot line of the comic strip is slightly cliché. So, I unfortunately felt the need to take a star off for that reason. For the well-conceived thought to be put down on paper so simply, alongside the incredible detail, awes me deeply; I have to say this may be my favorite of all Nick and Judy comics.
