  • Shame this vid has only 60.8k views.. It deserves so much more.

  • This comic changed me.. I have read like 500 comics but this one got to me.. Well done Jay Naylor

  • JatNaylor is one fucking amazing artist and I love Better days and original life

  • 112 soul less people believe that Fisk should have called the police instead........Boy are they wrong.

  • someone link me to the comic D:

  • Frisk: fuck the police! i gotta bat xp

  • I seen this video and had to look up the comic. the auther is good, some how i thought the main character was ganna die. but he's kinda bad ass though he did hook up with his sister O.o not judging just saying it was akward lol

  • @theHedgex1 He did that so his sister doesn't feel like nobody cares for her, sex or not.

  • @104dragonman true true she really needed someone to show they cared, what if they really did end up together?

  • @theHedgex1 In the comic, doing it is one thing when they care for each other is one thing, but doing because they think of themselves as lovers, that's just gone too far. By the way, sorry it took three weeks for my comment to come. Its just it didn't appear in my inbox.

  • This comic is perfect, and its second on my list of best reads ever. Sadly, Jay discontinued BD in 2009 and moved onto Original Life, which is the story of the kids of some of the characters from Better Days. I say we have to convince Jay to put back most of the characters from Better Days into Original Life. Right now we've only seen Lucy, Fisk, Elizabeth, Tommy and Sheila. We don't know what happened to the others...

  • @ApatheyIsAmazing yeah he should totally bring Nikki back, along with Beth, Aron and especially Persia.

    btw Jessica made an appearance in Original Life as well.

  • Now that I've finished the series and Original Life I still think you did a good job. It makes me feel, I guess, sentimental. The series itself was so imersive I remember it as if it were my own memories.

    Still good.

    The song is still good even though Ja Rule isn't that great of a person.

  • I started reading jaynaylor shortly after watching this.. I love the comic :)

  • honestly I have to say very well done! It seems professional in some aspects. I just very recently found out about this comic and I'm already into some of the characters.

    but again: awesome video; the music really fits it!

  • this series was amazing, just minus some of the explicit scenes and it wouldve been one of my fav comics

  • I've read all the comics of this guy they are nice and one is still being updated.

  • First video I saw of BetterDays!

    Its the best comic out there..<33

  • I just love when Fisk says: Police?! My ass!" and then beats longfellow with his bat.

  • I just finished reading this comic...it's just soo amazing. And this video is amazing too <33

  • @AspellAnderson There is a part two that is still being made, it has so far about 211 pages, it's original life on jay naylor's website! ;D

  • Wasn't expecting much from this comic when I first found it, but I really was surprised with it. Truly, I was blown away by how deep it was at times.

  • I sincerely hope that JN gets original life up to par with Better Days.

  • I miss Lucy as a supporting character.

  • Man, I hate furries I still liked the comic. Original life is complete garbage though. They need more comics like this.

  • I fell in love with this webcomic, The story is so big and the characters so well-developped. Unfortunately ''orginal life'' is nothing in comparison to the masterpiece ''better days'' was. Also the song for this tribute is great!

  • @lavoie84qc Was and still is to this day and onwards.

  • i was browsing and then i saw this and i was like holy shit is that jay naylor stuff

  • Love this video, and the comics.

  • @TheReveiw there is another comic just go to his website and click on the "Original life tab that's the follow up but its a bit more comedy censored but it can still be deep

  • Damn this comic ends so abruptly though. I wanna see Fisk's kids! NOW!

  • @TheReveiw read origional life lol

  • I'm not into the hardcore furry stuff, But when I read this I was blown away by the quality. 5Stars to JN forever.

    Hope he finishes Original Life.

  • OMG THIS IS THE BEST COMIC EVER :D I LOVE IT AND CANT WAIT TILL HE BRINGS OUT MORE ORIGINAL LIFE :D

  • omg i love jay naylor to i did the same as mmicg i got hooked on it its a good story it makes youe wish it was longer

  • I love Jay Naylor's work. I hate to read but once I saw Better Days, I was hooked. I read it in all at once from 12-7 am! I cried for days when it ended. I wish I was Fisk. I could relate to a lot. All of his adult catalogs that spin off are rely worth reading! Original Life is good too as well as its spin offs. I hope it never ends.

  • Better days forever ^_^

  • Poets of the fall - Roses fits this comic so well

    i always think about it when listening to it

  • i loved it

  • best comic ever

  • i read the hole comic and omg its the best ive ever read

  • this comic cannot be out matched

  • 5 *****

  • How do you do these effects? and what did you use to make this? BETTER DAYS IS THE BEST COMIC EVER!!!!!

  • Ace video for an ace webcomic!!

  • This video fuck n rocks

  • amazing comic i when seeing this i reconized each bit very well put just hope more comics are coming out 10/10 to jay naylor and 10/10 to you for making this tribute

  • That comic was full of emotion... this video brought that back. Well done.

  • AAARRRGGGHHH i cant take this comic serius all becas of fisk, dont get me wrong hes cool and all that... but translated from danish to english then "fisk" means"fish" :(

  • That's a turnoff for me as well. Here we have a comic that relies heavily on the dramatic writing, and what's the name of our main protagonist who has faced hardship after hardship, shaping him into the complex character that we see before us? Fish. :S *lol*

  • Thhat was a Beautifully made video it touched my heart and Better Days is a lovely comic keeep up the good work...

  • best comic ever the spin off to it is ok but not as good as this one

  • awesome

    Better Days is one of the best Comics i've ever read

  • I read this in 10 consecutive hours OMG O.o

  • got cinda sad when i saw jay wrote that he woukd not use same method on original life that he used on better days. because thats what he is realy good at writing a comic based on events through some characters years in life.

  • The Beginigs Cute

  • Amazing video, perfect song, and great effects ^^

    *Gives u two thumbs up*

    This video brings back great memories that I cherish and I hope this vid stays on youtube forever. Its just that great, amazing job ZigZag4ever =)

  • Best comic ever. Period.

    Fisk is the epitome of what everyone's life is. I can't think of any way that someone can't relate to him and his development of character was a pure masterpiece. I cried with a smile on my face after reading the final words of the final panel, "Thank you, and good night"

    Crap, now I'm crying again!

  • Well, I'm glad that I can't relate to a LOT of things in his life (like seeing my mother getting raped... yikes.. O_O). I just love how all of the drama in his life turned him into the ultimate badass when it could have really messed him up instead. *lol*

  • @n2oshotandironman I know what ye mean bud. aww now ur gonna get me started. WHY DID IT END!!?? WHYYYY??!!

  • @stefman666

    To make room for it's sequel: Original Life, the comic about their children.

    Check it out!

  • I'm so glad I stumbled onto this video. I went to the website to see this comic and i think that this is one of the best comics out there. This comic is really funny and it grabs my heart because it reminds me of some of my younger years. The comic does a great job at getting your emotional side. Great comic!!!

  • i love this comic !!! fricken awsome!

    the sequal is awsome too wish he would finish it soon... cus i have nothing to read online anymore lol

    p.s. fisk is a beast lol

  • Fisk's character is awesome nuff said

  • After stumbling on this comic for the first time and read all 25 chaps in 2 days, it just hit me so hard that I cried bucket of tears for this charcter build up... I was shocked when Fisk and Lucy have sex, but that build up their sibbling bond more better... I was afraid when Fisk joined the army due to that the artist might put in some sort of PTSD system, but it wasn't that much. Now there are two sequels to this and that they are Original Life and Breeding Bobbie that's with Persia.

  • Actually, Bobbie is Persia's mother and it's not a sequel. It's a side story about how she became pregnant with Persia in the first place.

    The only 'sequel' to Better Days is Original Life.

  • Love this comic, the sequel to this is original life, which continues the series.

  • Hehe no you got it wrong. Better days is the First, how Fisk and Lucy live through their life. This happend to be the best comic in all of the fandom. Jay Naylor is a wonderful comic maker and writer.

    Original Life is good too.

  • funny I watched this before the first time reading better days, and now I am back watching it the second time and reading the second time. I am getting something different out of the comic this time around, I have been reading into the political/ moral views more, some of them I can agree with, or my views seem to match but through different reasoning, if that makes sense. I love this comic.

    side note... any one notice "Pokemon henti yiff" in related videos... sad that that got related to this.

  • Great job on the video. It's a crying shame he had to end the series, but at least we have Original Life. AS with many others, this comic reminded me a lot about my younger years.

    If only Jay knew how much this comic means to some people. It's one of the greatest works I've seen. End of discussion.

    I would pay to have it animated. More than anyone knows.

  • best better days vid i ever saw

    5/5

  • This comic just  awesome work 5/5*

  • IT WAS BADASS WHEN FISK OWNED THAT RAPIST TEACHER.

    That is all.

  • Ya ik right!

  • ugh, i love this comic, i really wanted fisck to end up with Lucy

  • well, as lucy put it, it is really wierd to date your brother

  • I must say its probably the best webcomic i have read so far(I havent read many!) it has a good storyline( with twists of course, funny moments and dramatic moments.

    Jay throws in some political views, But i have nothing against it.

    About the Incest in this comic: Its a theme used in much Literature and its strengthens the characthers feelings and emothions against each other and serves quite a plottwist.

    Overall: I really enjoyed the WebComic.

    one of the good one

    I AM NORWEGIAN

  • I dont know me and Fisk man its like this comic/book knows me.. I started reading it an i just couldn't stop its like i was reading my life..

    It was scary i was shaking at times.. an i was crying its really scared me..

  • I'm sad that this ended. But at least we have 'Original Life'. I also would like to know what happened to Lucy and Tommy. Jay Naylor, you rock hard!

  • I have searched every where for a better days vid...I LOVE IT (tears fall dramaticly from eyes)

  • AWSOME TRIBUTE.

  • GOD DAMN THIS OWNS!!

    *presses favorite button*

  • I love Jay naylors betterdays! Have you had the chance to read original life? I think that you should mention that fisk and lucy are twins and that it was them doing it in that one scene, I always feel all sad when I read that part where lucy just can't sort through her fellings for him. Man they should turn it into a manga hahaha.

  • Started reading this for 4 years ago, its sad that it ended. At least we got Orignal Life now too bad it isnt in the same tone as Better Days, I hope they will soon get into some trouble :P

  • better days is the best furries comic i've ever read!!!!

  • i love this its awesome i love better days

  • I love better days! i just found a link to it today and i finished it and added it to my favorites list! i was so sad that it ended but theres a new one! thanks Jay Naylor!!!!!!!!!

  • I wish the comic had told use what happened to Lucy and Tommy.

  • Hopefully they and their kids (if they had any) will appear in Original Life

  • Great Video.

    I' m not such a Furry- Fan, but this is great (Maybe I start reading it^^)

  • 8D He has started a new comic ^^ its about Fisk's kids, its called original life

  • love this comic :D too bad it ended, but to look at it from the bright side the new one came out TODAY :D Original Life :) so if you liked Better days you'll love Original Life

  • How come it showed everyone else in the ch 25 except lucy and her mom?

  • last page... :'(

  • T_T this comic ended today PLEASE JAYNAYLOR DONT REMOVE IT FROM THE SITE

  • He may have finished it but he's still going to keep it archived where it is, no worries bro.

  • this comic reminds me of my friend tom j. micheals he died a while ago tho

  • it's over folks, Better Days has officially ended, the last page was send today and is announced to be the last.

    i need a new comic to check twice a week now...

  • I saw his new comic yesterday and um..well so far fisk is still in it but get this he has kids now.

  • better days....love it.....weird thing though...after I read the comic from start all the way to updates I've learned that I gotta be carefull cause on that same night I was OCDing on kingdom hearts fer a while and when I slept...welll....the to came together. I still remember the dream if any of you wanna know how it went. but alass better days is awsome.

  • i've read the whole dam serries so far, there are WAY better anthro comics online and the art is decent at best, the story is as far as i can see your simple eastends style shit (but years instead of days) with some patroic, flag waving crap.

    lizardbeth can writing better story and draw better art than this guy could in an hour

  • no offence, but lizardbeth has had (almost) no serious storyline at ALL thus far!

    admitted, beth's art looks better indeed, but then again better days is not MEANT to be graphicly extensive.

    i believe that if the storyline is original, impressive, and the emotions realistic and well shown, there is no need to make it a second rembrandt!

    yer just being fanboyish!

  • i love this comic! 5*/5 !!!

  • incredible job on making this piece.  just fantastic!

  • I love this comic

  • I love it to.

    I can't put into words how AWESOME

    I think this comic is, to be honest.

    THANKS AGAIN! I OWE YOU MY

    LIFE!!!!!!!

  • this is one of my fav. comics online it has a wonderful story line with new scens and twists to it and i suggest that every one should read it though. i even showed it to a freind that wasnt a fur ad he loved it as well

  • and 1 thing i have seen from those who write comment's to they comic most think's it just another strange web comic but then they find a comic with great storyline well drawn and more.

    but ofcouse here will always be some that hate this comic. and another thing it seem's many think jay naylor write his own feeling and mind through the charackter fisk but that's wrong.

  • I wish one day this webcomics became an animated serie ^^

  • I can't imagine they're voices...

  • in France we have very good voices for anime, for example, riff raff from Catillac Cats has the french voice of bruce willis ! lol !

  • god damn -.-

    letzt say xD i know hist OTHER work to ^^ and i wondert how they gruw up and stuff... today is stumbeld on ta link to the gallery or better the Better Days Archive and i couldnt stop reading and just finisht about 20 minuets ago and god damn i never thought they had it that hard i alwso never thought naylor could write sutch a gripping sotry line... and hell im sooo looking forword to the next page on monday..... its just awesome how he douse that.

    Thank you for the tribute :)

  • j'adore cette b.d. en ligne ^^

  • ahaha quite a good comic wasnt expecting for it to be as good as it was :P

  • Fisk hasn't changed at since the first chapter, besides being grown up!

  • he have changed.

    but well some see et and some dont.

  • ?? ofcourse he has chaged -.- he'ss getting jused to killing people and i got to say i didn't think he would grow up to be a "goverment" killer

  • Just read some of this comic a while ago, and I must say, it's fucking AWESOME!!!

    Best damn thing I've read in years!

    Definitely worth reading!

  • I'll have to check this comic out! thanks!

  • this comic is worth reading

  • Best comic ever!

  • this shit was fucking sweet better dayz is a great comic

  • i still love this comic and it is smart of jay to end it soon so it does not become one of the mass comic's tha only walk in a circle. Jay pls make a goon end

  • love this comic, can definitely relate to the story which gives it a feeling of reality. Nice tribute.

    Jay Naylor 4eva (,,,)=(^.^)=(,,,)

  • ah btw when first saw the 2 first page's i thought this was crapp until i gave it a try ca. 2 month's later. then when i got into the comic i started 2 love it. and this comic is realy good it is a bit realistic, there is fun thing's in it an dit is well drawn. Go Jay Naylor!!! 5stars

  • badly jay naylor have said he end the comic on chapter 26:(

  • No. It's not.

  • isn't it just a yiff comic from like, one of the most generic artists out there?

  • no. there's absolutely no porn in it.

  • You'd be surprised how many people go to this comic looking for yiff, but instead of being dissapointed, they're lured in the rich story and character development that they've ever seen out of a comic.

    A friend of mine(girl) introduced me to this comic. As a guy, I thought it was gay, but I'd do anything to take back what I said.

    I read chapters 1-23 in two days. Shit was SO cash.

    Although depression quickly came when I now have to wait every week. :(

  • i had same feeling

  • i was also introduced to the story through his porn and i dont know if i can ever go back to it the same way now after reading the story... it would feel like "pissing in front of a nun".. it was such a powerful experience... mere words are not enough to express the greatness of this comic and i wish it was much longer and Jay worked faster continuing it... thats too much to ask because of the great work he has done so far.

  • amen

  • Think of it this way, everyone has sex so the porn is just depicting their se life and not really changing the characters at all.

  • same here. read them all in one night. BEST ****ING COMIC I'VE EVER READ.

  • same here lol

  • pretty good =3 luv the comics.

  • Props to you for making this tribute. I love the song, it really fits to the comic in almost everyway. 5/5 keep up the good work. =)

  • I never get tired of this video. =^w^=

  • the only and the best comic amv i've ever seen

  • grate comic.. and very good tribute.. good job

  • hey ... cool video... jay naylor is cool too

  • This is the best comic ever.

  • well done. I love this comic

  • very nice! whats the song called?

  • Ja Rule & Ashley - Free

  • thanks

  • I´m reading this comic right now.. for the THIRD time. It´s just great.

    But I didn´t see Elsie in the video. You know, that good-looking skunk girl whos sister Fisk took to the halloween-dance in chapter 12?

    I miss her, or did I miss her?;)

  • *sigh* i wish fisk and lucy didnt have to grow up :[

  • Yeah, same here, but at least their stories as adults are still just as good. :)

  • its good, just not as good as their childhood.

  • its tough to think... is it better when they were kids or not... well them being kids.. there was a lot more drama and weird things happening.. wile the older one is more out and about wile still having crazy things going on.. the only real issue i have is Fisk in the war/other stuff.. i wish he would jest stay home XD

  • my nr 1 webcomic! too bad he stopped with new worlds comic,btw @ the maker of this vid, lemme guess,zigzag as in the half skunk half tigress zigzag? xD anthro's for the winning! xD

  • Furry 4ever!

  • lol i didnt know that there is a amv about that great online comic.

    I watch this comic since the beginning ;:D

  • you've been watching since april 18th 2003 to the very last he uploads every monday and friday? wow you gotta be patient to last 5 years wondering what will happend next, also probably the best and only comic story i'm ever going to read, keep up the good work jay!

  • The comic is truly awesome and I love the songs!

  • Jay Naylor is a genus! Jay Naylor and Bette Days 4 Life!

    Say Idk if I'm asking a stupid question but, dose Jay N
