Critical Miss: #16

[EBHughsThe1st]

I like this comic now.
But that hamster does not add anything.
"LOL. Hamster saved the comic." NOE!

 

[zHellas]

Completely unrealistic cartoon. It should have been a panda.

Nuu... The pandas are over at PVPOnline beating up Brent Sienna, so they're taken.

 

[DeadAccountMoveAlong]

Between the actual joke, and the Shadow of the Colossus background action, this one actually made me laugh. Well done.

 

[Dr. wonderful]

....This comic and Manly guys doing manly things are my favorite from the escapist.

 

[ThaBenMan]

Another good one. I have to wonder, though - did you guys make the bear character knowing that the game Naughty Bear was coming out, and so you could make these jokes? Or was it simply a fortunate coincidence? Either way, it made a hilarious strip, well done.

And I also loved the SotC hamster action - one time, back when I had a pet hamster myself, my room-mates and I talked about how we would react if the hamster suddenly whipped out a sword while he was crawling around on one of us.

Complete coincidence actually. If you look carefully Charles has been lurking around in the background since the 3rd strip and we've been waiting to introduce him since then. He's a really fun character to write and he comes out in the artwork beautifully. Those last two panels are really intense.

 

[Metallgoth]

That was great.

 

[Ralen-Sharr]

I'd be hard pressed to NOT laugh my ass off after that kind of rant.

 

[Hippobatman]

Read Dead Redemption would be hard to swallow for him, I believe.

 

[TheCakeisALie87]

Well we all know that Bottles the Mole was the real protagonist of the Banjo franchise. And no Banjo-Tooie and the new crappy one are not counted in that calculation.

 

[FungiGamer]

What about Banjo? He was a pretty cool dude. Wahey!

Dammit, someone beat me to it....
but seriously, no love for Banjo? I could understand after what happened to the last game but still...

 

[Tolerant Fanboy]

Anyone else think Stout had a beard in the last panel for a second?

Also, Banjo is pretty cool, but we all know he would've never made anything of himself without Kazooie. The bear has no real ambitions beyond a peaceful pastoral life. The bird has aspirations of greatness, or at least superiority over everything she meets.

 

[DanDeFool]

Perfect timing.

I mean, they introduced Charles the Bear, what? Last week?

 

[K4RN4GE911]

Lol. "Don't laugh, don't laugh, don't laugh."

That was pretty funny. I never really got the concept for the game.

 

[BenzSmoke]

Exactly what I think when people rage like that.
Also, Shadow of the Colossus rodent.

 

[twaddle]

i still think manly men doing manly things should have won( i still read it on deviant art. its hilarious) but i get some mild humour out of this

 

[Jaker the Baker]

Why does she have sideburns?

 

[Sir Kemper]

Bearsploitation...


Isn't that a movie genre?

 

[Phantomess]

Something tells me he wouldn't like Shamus Play's LOTRO, where he must murder all bears everywhere.

This actually made me laugh more than the strip. Well played, well played.
