About half of this comic was an actual conversation. There isn’t much else to say about it.

Every time I see a trailer for War Horse, I feel like I’m in The Emperor’s New Clothes. Does no one else see that this movie is about a horse that apparently single-handedly wins World War One? Does no one else find that absurd? To be fair, neither of us have seen war horse. I almost did, but decided that no matter how good (or bizarre) it was, it couldn’t possibly live up to...

I’m not saying the Hobbit cartoon is bad. I’m just saying it’s, well, let’s go with dated. Realizing things you loved from your childhood are awful is always disappointing. Recently, I discovered that the final battle in Star Fox 64 is one of the worst fights I’ve ever played through in a video game. I mean the giant brain, not the monkey face. The monkey face is...

I hate going to Gamestop. I wouldn’t mind the pushy salesmen as much if they were ever pushing a game I wanted. I don’t think I have ever been asked if I was preordering a game that I eventually bought. It’s always Call of Duty or Battlefield or any of the other hundred games exactly like them. I would actually be happy if they said, “Are you preordering the new Harvest...

I’ve never really understood the appeal of cosplay. The payoff doesn’t seem substantial enough for the amount of work put into the costumes. For me, looking like a character is too fleeting a goal. When the cosplayer is finished wearing the costume, they no longer look like the character. They still have the costume, but that isn’t really the finished product; them in the costume...

We’re referring to Wednesday’s comic. horrible stuff, really. You probably thought that was just a lighthearted joke about erectile dysfunction. Well, you were wrong. That was our serious episode like when Carlton accidentally takes speed on the Fresh Prince. We’re moving into Drama here.

No we haven’t radically changed the art style of the comic. We are just imitating the style of Fortnight. Despite appearing to be a pretty shameless ripoff of Minecraft, The game has me interested. After all, Minecraft with a bigger budget is a pretty incredible concept. Seriously though, they blow up a building with cement walls so they can build one with walls made from road signs. Also,...

We could not remember what power killing Woodman gave you. This is our closest approximation. There’s a little blue man/ little blue pill joke I should be telling, but I don’t know what it is.

This comic consists largely of an actual conversation between John, myself, and one of our friends. John actually had made this comic once before, but John wrote the actual text himself, a practice that ends with a great amount of spelling and grammatical issues. We also had yet to establish a visual style, so rather than simply replacing the text, we decided to create an entirely new comic. The...

John (the real one) accidentally bought button fly jeans a while ago. Apparently, button was the default fly style when he ordered them online. Those things are truly awful. I used to have a pair, and I eventually stopped even attempting to use the fly and just wriggled out of them with only the top button undone. Those were dark times. Also, we continue to be on twitter. I haven’t...

This comic falls under the same category as the last one in that we’ve been wanting to write it for as long as we’ve been making the comic, and now we have an excuse to do so. They made a Voltron game for the Xbox Live arcade. It’s actually a lot of fun. The best part is that it says, “Voltron will be back after these messages,” when you pause, and that’s really...
