Holy poo poo, Shiga, you moron, mustard gas doesn't just gently caress up your lungs.

No, but the only completely fatal effect is loving up your lungs. Why would Demons care if the body they're in gets hosed up beyond all recognition? As long as they're still alive, all they gotta do is find another person and off themselves.

I feel bad for the tooth kid in Monster Pulse. He's about to have a severe heart attack.

Demons body-jack the closest living person and right now that's Hunter or any remaining Jimmy's, Sweetpea's or demon soldiers. So the mustard gas is a bad thing right now, in any other situation they'd be fine.

More importantly, is the light bright enough to give the facsimile of life to the bloated and dead corpse of a webcomic.

Does a famous antique baseball bat count as a legendary weapon? I guess we're about to find out in The Sword Interval. I think it was linked a while ago in the thread because it's by the author of Derelict, Ben Fleuter. It took a bit to get up to speed but I'm enjoying it. Here's the main page with links to the first episode:

I've been thinking it for a while, but I really hope part of King Radical's defeat in Dr. McNinja involves the doctor being hailed the Most Rad and usurping King Radical's title. The dude surfed robo-dracula's body back to earth, he's deserved it by now.

What episode? I think it was just meant to be a riff on Orpheus, I can't think what episode you mean that had a trip into the afterlife or anything.

Probably the bit where the gang resurrects Buffy because they think she is trapped in a hell dimension, but it turns out they ripped her out of heaven.

I wondered if they meant that, but "ripping off" made me think there was something more on the nose than that that I was forgetting; there's like nothing in common between the two except for the vague concept of "in heaven instead of hell".

I did mean that, but was being deliberately hyperbolic with "ripping off"; it's essentially a joke I've heard before, so of course it's not as funny to me, but I appreciate that this time I didn't have to sit through an hour of teen drama to hear it :v:

Anyone else reading The Last Halloween? It's pretty good - the humor is a little obnoxious sometimes but I think the art pulls off the cute/creepy/gory tone really well.



Anyway, who's the lady in the most recent update? I get the feeling that we're supposed to remember her, but I don't.

Oh my god I'm an idiot :negative: I just realized who it is.

I read it. I love Abby's art and I think she is very funny, but she's still working on her writing skills and it doesn't really work here. The tone is off-key and doesn't work like seven times out of ten. Still, I like her enough to finish reading it and hope her next project works better.

I still want to know what Big Green Smoker's deal is. He's extremely chill with pretty much everything going on around him and has actually been helpful and generous upon occasion, which just makes me think he'll turn out to be a member of the Fantasy Mafia in Dog Rome or some such.

He kinda looks like Koark's dad, so there is at least some small possibility he could be an ancestor of their family. If that's the case, he could be a teller. Would explain his general curiosity about stuff and chill attitude at any rate.

I suspect he either wants in on the unweight trade, probably exporting it overseas (since he's awfully interested in secretly procuring a ship that can carry a lot of stuff) or is involved with bringing the tea that the emperor needs for his illness. Maybe both!

Remember Alpha Flag? Yeah, probably not because it hasn't updated for two years. Well, it's back! I remember almost nothing about it except that the art was pretty and the plot was occasionally hard to follow. And that the artist really likes drawing shirtless men.

I'll probably let it build up a good buffer then reread the whole thing.

So, what's been happening in Manly Guys recently?

March 7 update:

quote:

I actually wrote this one like five years ago but this seemed like an appropriate time to use it

Man cancer is super in vogue this year, all the cool kids are getting it. And I guess that must mean I got invited to sit at the cool kid lunch table because the doctor’s pretty sure I have it too! At least as sure as he can be without physically going in and cutting pieces out.

Plus side, it’s pretty low-key 99.7% survivable thyroid cancer so if you gotta spin that cancer roulette wheel it’s basically like winning a jackpot. And I’ll get a cool Kurgan neck scar out of it, which I feel would massively compliment my aesthetic.

Minus side is I gotta take drugs to replace my thyroid for the rest of my life and get to live with hypo/perthyroidism until they get all the medication levels sorted out which is NOT GOING TO BE FUN while I’m also in the middle of working a full-time job and planning a wedding (and drawing all these webcomics what I do) So I will pre-emptively say, if you’re wondering why MGDMT is kind of janky or not in colour or whatever happens to be wrong with it that week, it’s probably because I have cancer.

That aside, I also got hammered with a super bad cold this weekend that completely knocked me out of commission, which, if you ask me, is completely not fair to get knocked out by a head cold the same week you get diagnosed with thyroid cancer.

Ah well, C’est la vie.

March 12 update:


quote:

If Frank Frazetta could learn to draw with his left hand so can I

Boy howdy it sure has been a lovely month for me, hasn’t it.

March 20 update:


quote:

The pumpkins make me feel more guilty than the pottery

This is an easy joke that a million people have made but whatever, I sincerely feel bad smashing pumpkins in this tiny little farming town to harvest rupees out of them and I can’t get over Link’s dumb placid lingering stare.

Anyway, final tally on the damage, I have a some impermanent nerve trauma making most of my right arm and hand numb that’s supposed to clear up in about six weeks, a small fracture in my shoulder, and some torn muscles and ligaments I’ll have to do physio for when it’s safe to lift my arm again in about three weeks. What I DO have is the go-ahead from the doctor to draw again with my right arm, because doing so with an ergonomically reshuffled workspace won’t exacerbate any of those issues. The experience of drawing right now is sort of like, if you lie on your arm long enough for it to go numb, then strap it to your body so you can only move at the elbow and try to see how much pen control you have. My arm gets tired quickly, it can’t move enough to sketch, and I need to intensely focus on what I’m doing to put lines where I need them, but by WORKING REALLY HARD and concentrating all my energy into the task I’ve worked out a system of sketching with my left hand and cleaning up with my right hand that allows me to continue working at the pace and quality necessary for a professional storyboard artist without doing anything to aggravate the injury.

If anything I hope this cements my career for the rest of my life, like whenever I apply for jobs, potential future employers ask around about me and testimonials are just like “She’s a loving machine who keeps chipping at the work like the T-1000 taking shotgun blasts. She boarded five minutes of television with a broken shoulder even faster and more efficiently than she was working before.” Make this my Tony Stark in a Cave With a Box of Scraps moment, like “dude, what’s your excuse? Kelly did this with nerve damage, a torn ligament, and thyroid cancer.”

Anyway, that’s me trying to look on the bright side.
