"Buddy Gator" Is Your Family's New Favorite Comic Strip

Malaysian illustrator Chow Hon Lam created his lovable alligator character earlier this year as a way of spreading positivity during a difficult time, and Buddy Gator has already amassed tens of thousands of followers who have fallen in love with the friendly gator’s upbeat attitude and quirky outlook on life. 

Since the comic strip started, Buddy Gator has been joined by a growing cast of colorful characters, all of whom share their alligator friend’s general vibe, which is about looking out for one another, respecting each other’s feelings, finding what’s special in each individual, and generally being a pretty big fan of ice cream. 

Here’s a selection of some of the most fun Buddy Gator comics, but if you and your family want to get a regular dose of Buddy Gator and pals, you should follow his continuing adventures on Instagram.
