This is definite A+++ w@@D buy again material.
Just... wow, I don't even want to spoil it by analysing it, except to say that I can't get the phrase 'Primal Chaos ruled world before Todd' out of my head.

Actually I will over analyse a litte: Look at panel 15, is anyone else put in mind of that frog strangling a bird picture? In my mind, this comic's creation myth involves The 'Stad seeing such a poster, deciding which Achewood character would get in such a situation and just running with it.
The man ran so far.

This must be the "suckin' dick" that bought the van.  The sexual overtones here.  They're freakin' me out.

If you recall Todd is illiterate and the license plate was (at least I assumed) a cruel prank from evil salesmen. Now we see that it was the final revenge of a dying (stalk? swallow? something...) bird.

But of course now I'm seeing the overtones, Todd wakes up, doesn't know where he is or what's going on, he is told he 'ate' a 'burrito' and then strangles a long necked bird until he gets a van.

Sorry to go through it in such a blatant way, I was just kind of running through it in my head since before now this hadn't even occured to me. Thanks Aparrish!
Anyone else care to add their intepretations?

Todd is so cool that he kills a stork and it turns into a van.

This premise rocks me to my very core.

This is totally in Todd Todd Todd Todd Todd T Squirrel's head and only there.

Also no matter how much I see "You're the real thing asshole" it always makes me laugh.  (I believe it's appeared only once before, maybe twice but I can't be arsed to find it.)

I love the juxtaposition of epic imagery and Todd. Of course this is how Todd imagines he came to be; it involves feats of strength, volcanos, and burritos. What's not to love?

This was good. The panel with Todd yelling was good.

Did anyone else think of this after reading "WHOOOOO AMMMMM I?" Jackie yells that at some point during that kick-ass movie.

Oh and that third to last panel really freaked me out. I'll never look at his van the same way again.

Over all I think it was a quality strip and I'm kinda hoping it will continue and not be a one off type thing going on. I want more todd.

If you remember, apparently Todd didn't know that his frame said that.  I think it must be the bird's revenge on Todd.

So was Todd in the crater?  Or did the burrito turn into Todd?  Is that Mount St. Helens?
