Vol 1: Episode 3, Part 5



When white people say things like "Dogs for Life," its funny. Especially if said in a very "white" manner. Lets not actually get into this. I rather like Link's comment of "WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN!?" If I was smart, the second Link would have echoed that, or there would have been a short dialog between Dante and Second Link about that in which Second Link would be like "HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT!?" But oh well. About Sephiroth, Dante, and Second Link, they were the villians in my old comic, so I decided I might end up reusing them again. Nope, that never pans out either. I'm really glad half my old ideas didn't pan out now that I think about it.

Vol 1: Episode 3, Part 4



I actually dislike action comics, because they take almost as long to make as a normal comic and they go by three times as fast. I do like Bob's upside down flying stab. I was too lazy to actually edit new poses for him, so I made do. Sephiroth's comment is a reference to how he killed Aeris in Final Fantasy 7 (OMG SPOILER!). The entrance of the author is a reference to Bob and George, whose Author would always appear and disappear with a Lens Flare, a "Poof!", and a rather lame pose. I probably steal a lot of jokes from Dave, as he's also have the inspiration for my nickname. Oh well, he'd probably forgive me.

Spell Check Note: I misspelled entrance and the first think spell check said I meant was "interference." Lawl at comic authors interfering in their own comic, another theme from Bob and George.

Vol 1: Episode 3, Part 3



Ah, the rise of the fonts. Fancy fonts start to appear in this comic more often. I think it adds a nice little spice. The inspiration for Snap's story is a true story of what happened to me. Which I still don't get because Sheik is Zelda, and Zelda has a vag00. I hate Japan. Also, another reference to Lupin's Theme song, and I'm already sick of my new fonts. Atleast I didn't use the bottom one extensively.

Nat would also make a horrible Counter Strike hostage.

Vol 1: Episode 3, Part 2



Originally I was going to include some stuff about things called "Zones" which sort of work like alternate dimensions. Characters in Jackass Adventures would reside in the Jackass Zone, and when not in use they'd go to the "Unused Character Zone," and if I ever did other comics they would have the own zone, etc etc etc. Well, that never panned out. And why Sephiroth is a crime boss, I don't know, but everyone loves Sephiroth. In case you've been living under a rock for the past ten years, Sephiroth is the villian of Final Fantasy 7, the most popular video game evar. Though I don't like it as much as 4, or other series as a matter of fact. And a funny thing I noted just now, the reason Sephiroth was able to escape from the Unused Character Zone, is because I needed to use him in the comic. Sort of cosmic on a contained, localized sort of wait.

Vol 1: Episode 3, Part 1



God, besides from Lupin crashing onto his face, not funny at all. Jokes ripped off from Family Guy, and the inclusion of Jay and Silent Bob is another thing I regret doing. 2 years after the release of their movie is when I finally start making jokes with them. Oh, and I'm pretty sure "Ape kill ape" was some random shit kids at my school yelled. Yeah, I suck.

Vol 1: Flash Interlude



I love this joke, but it's lost it's effect now. I just made a little web page, put this gif up there and laughed to myself while I wondered how long people would wait there before noticing they could scroll down. I remember Megan (you'll meet her later) IMing me and going "d00d, I think your flash is broken or something," and then bursting into laughter. I then told her to scroll down, and she haeted me. It was funny though. I'll spare you all though.

[8/07 note]: I got Esther with it too, apparently, she says. More lols for me!

Vol 1: Episode 3, Part 6



Lawl, raep. Last of the episode' d comics too! I've actually had a contact high, and its not as great as it seems. Second hand pot smoke isn't that mind altering, then again, I probably didn't get a powerful dose of it. I do so like my "TV off" effect I made in MS Paint. I think that's the one good thing about this comic. Beside teh raep.

Vol 1: Episode 2, Part 6



And we come to the close of another episode, and God, what a silly way to end. Again, 14, DOA tits, regret, etc. I do like the crack about Natalee, who I probably would have put in this episode if I made it recently. Oh well. You'll notice that all of the art has a "JOS" logo on it. Well, this was the logo of the artist JOS, who was once a regular on neotaku. He was personally one of my favorites, and he became sort of an advisor to me on the comic and actually sorta on life. We were pretty chummy though I'm pretty sure he was almost like 10 years older than me. I'll probably start mentioning him a lot from now, especially when the comic gets to the "guest star" phase. Anyway, I loved that dude.

Oh, and the reason Snap gets a bloody nose from the art is some anime thing. When people have perverse thoughts in animu, they get bloody noses. I don't get that exactly.

Vol 1: Episode 2, Part 5



I love putting shurikens into Snap. To me, there's nothing funnier then some one walking around with weapons sticking out of them like it was completely normal. Anyway, onto the notes. Trigun and Cowboy Bebop used to air back to back on adult swim on Cartoon Network, and after watching them I would go to bed, so I assume I made this comic later at night. And for the select few of you that have never played Ocarina of Time (awesome freaking game), the entirety of the game you have a fairy named Navi wandering around with you, giving you tips and telling you the enemies' weakspots. Well, she can be quite annoying half the time with her hi-pitched "HEY! LISTEN!" "HEY! LISTEN!" especially if you know what you're supposed to be doing already. This torch is some-what carried on by Midna in Twilight Princess, but she isn't even half as intrusive, but hearing your Wii-mote giggle is a little unsettling.

Vol 1: Episode 2, Part 4



I used to edit sprites. Those DOA girls sprites were of my labors, and Spike and Kenshin were as well. Spike comes from Cowboy Bebop, which is probably the most well liked anime ever next to FLCL. Kenshin comes from Rurouni Kenshin and Samurai X, which would have been cooler if there was copius ammounts of blood. Kenshin's the little purple and orange guy that appears when Snap screams "Hiten Mitsurugi Ryu Pimp Slap Attack," which Hiten Mitsurugi is the sword fighting style Kenshin uses. Again, I'm a loser otaku and that's why I make these references.

Also, now that I think about it, why did Lupin buy Spike instead of stealing him like he usually would? I'm retarded.

Vol 1: Episode 2, Part 3



Yay, on to cure attempts! Sam's ofcourse is just plain out violence, which usually solves everything. And Japanese note, Kawaii means "cute." Its one of the 9 total words most anime fans actually know the English meaning for. I used to practice these 9 words. Another thing I grew out of. I still use the word kawaii occasionally, but usually in a really deep voice for the lulz.

Vol 1: Episode 2, Part 2



Ah, love this comic. You'll note I used the physical transformation in later comics. When the group looks over to Snake, and see a box, it's a reference to Metal Gear Solid. In the games, Snake uses a cardboard box to hide in. I regret not simply drawing a box and using that wooden one from Mario RPG though. Sam's "Meat-Stick" comment was probably taken from some where. Meat-sticks seems far too wierd a thing to be original. Uhhmmm... Yuri is the opposite of Yaoi, as it stars lesbians. Yay boobs! Is that all I have to note? Yeah, okay.

Vol 1: Episode 2, Part 1


Ehh, not so bad. Jokes are pretty decent on this one, so its passable. Though I have no clue why I referenced the 70s. I think I just like the thought of Snake with an afro, though it is tiny, cute Snake. At least in MGS4 he's not balding. Also, if you haven't noticed before, a running them for the first few comics is "Everything bad happens to Snap."
