Chances are you’ve already heard about [Axe Cop](http://www.axecop.com), the Internet’s new darling for good reason. But if you haven’t, you’re in for a treat- the word “hilarious” is so overused that I never use it unless something really is. And Axe Cop is hilarious. Axe Cop chronicles the continuing adventures of, well, Axe Cop. He and his partner Flute Cop (aka Dinosaur Soldier, aka Avacodo Solider) do what most cops do- fight off dinosaurs, babies with unicorn horns, evil Santas, and jealous would-be partners. Oh, did I forget to mention that Axe Cop is written by a five-year-old? This is part of why Axe Cop is so strange and so funny- the bizarre stream-of-conciousness imagination of a child combined with his brother’s realistic illustrations lead to a quirky combination that you can’t help but laugh at. It’s the sort of randomness perfected by Monty Python and seen on Adult Swim- but only a kid could come up with adventures as weird and as funny as these. And I’m glad he did. (Thanks to M. Holm[ **toadspittle** ) ---

“I’m going to Earth so I can be a **Super Hero**. Want to go?” “No, we don’t want to get **hurt in fights**.” You know, every story Marvel has ever published about reluctant heros and mutants who just want to be normal, and a five-year old sums it up in two sentences. This is inspired. 😃 ---

“Ask Axe Cop” is just as good. I’m sore from laughing. Thanks to the OP for this. ---

“Axe Cop and Dinosaur Solider needed more money to get new guns and swords. So they got a job at the fruit stand and were getting lots of money. Also, because they were pals of the fruit stand, they could get free fruit…Axe Cop became Axe Cop with Lemon.” If I ever need a name for a team or something, I think I’m going to call it “Pals of the Fruit Stand.” ---

This comic is a rare and delightful gem! Unlike many other webcomics I could name, sadly. ---

Oh thank God. Singing trees are an abomination, and it’s nice to see that I’m not the only one who feels that they go against the natural order of things. I wonder if they’ve ever been to Santa’s Village… ---

I wonder if they’ve ever been to Santa’s Village… The singing tree was inspired by a personalizable JibJab Christmas card that one ofthe artist’s other relatives had decided to use Axe Cop’s head in. There’s a link on the Axe Cop blog- with Axe Cop in it it’s actually pretty funny. I guess Axe Cop makes everything funny. ---

That is great. When Fang was four, he would make up the adventures of Electric-Spider-Man. Alas, he has reached the wizened age of six, and is too cool for such things now. ---

My four year old daughter cried when Avocado Soldier took Uni-baby’s horn away. ---

Boy, this is really gonna come back to haunt this kid someday. No wonder the older brother decided to do it. 🙂 ---

> [@Lemur866](#): > > My four year old daughter cried when Avocado Soldier took Uni-baby’s horn away. That brings up an important question…if Uni-Baby was abducted by aliens when Uni-Man left Smart Planet for Earth, how was Uni-Baby on Earth when he was used to kill Psydrozon, temporarily joined forces with Telescope Gun Cop, and eventually went to live with Choward and Goward Snoward, with Avocado Soldier taking his horn? I love the fact that even a comic book written by a five-year-old already has continuity problems. (In addition, if Axe Cop found his axe on the job as seen in Axe Cop #1, how did he already have his axe when he signed up to be a cop, as retold in Ask Axe Cop #5? Not to mention the time-travel related paradox created in the origin issue Axe Cop #0, which involves Telescope Gun Cop using Uni-Baby to travel back in time and kill Axe Cop’s parents after Axe Cop refused to let him on the team, said parents’ death being what caused Axe Cop and Flute Cop/Dinosaur Solider/Avocado Solider/Uni-Avocado Soldier to becom cops in the first place.) ---
