Sure, I’ve made a bunch of 3 panel ones earlier. For this particular one I figured I should show their change in emotion, but maybe you’re right, I could have eliminated one of those middle panels. Glad you enjoyed it anyway, though!
For what it’s worth, I definitely thought the two middle panels portrayed the change of emotions brilliantly. You have the rare talent to, with only a few pictures, be able to paint a heartbreaking scene that is at the same time both touching and makes you feel “I totally know that feeling”. Kudos!
This reminds me a bit of that smbc comic when the only people who survived the apocalypse are frat boys. ( http://www.smbc-comics.com/?id=2520 ) I think this would comics work perfectly in that universe :D

By the way Kristian, haven’t you thought about going 3 panel style? In many of your strips that 2nd or 3rd panel is unenecessary, like in this one.
