"look at us, we can reference an Old Spice commercial! Ha! We're funny!" Seriously, outdated internet references aren't funny. Critical miss sometimes has great issues, but why must there be so many internet meme references?
It was a reference to the last transition at the end of the old spice commercial where Isaiah Mustafa says "I'm on a Horse"Kopikatsu said:I don't get the transition between the last two panels. I get the old spice joke, and the 'Garrus does nothing but calibrations for the whole game' joke, but...it just went over my head.
I'm really glad to hear this. I was about to get on my soapbox and rant yet again about the comic devolving into nothing more than a series of topical gaming satire, since we had an absence of story last week as well. And the week before that. And the week before that. Not that that would be a problem, it's just nice to make clear your intentions on what direction the comic is going; story or satire? Satire is commonplace in similar comics such as Ctrl+Alt+Del, but it's handled in such a way that it's not so often that it interferes with a clearly defined story arc.Grey Carter said:Critical Miss: Spice Effect

Just a heads up, guys. This will probably be the last gag strip for a while. We're heading intro storyline country so buckle up.
Goddamn Garrus. Always doing those calibrations. If he doesn't want to talk, he should just say so.Bobbity said:That last frame is pure gold.

This was rather fortuitous timing, I finally started Mass Effect recently. Awesome, just awesome. The comic had me laughing by the third panel. Unfortunately, I tend to be paragon more than renegade.
Wew, I sure can't wait. It better be good, though!Grey Carter said:Just a heads up, guys. This will probably be the last gag strip for a while. We're heading intro storyline country so buckle up.
That was just dubbed over clips of the game though. This is way funnier.Loonerinoes said:So...you made a parody...of an already existing parody using a far more apt character from the same game?
