What is dragonborn a reference to? I googled it and there are like six different games/RPGs/whatever with that phrase.

I don't think it's fair to say that Mario killing his parents is some sort of reflection of laserbot himself. The parents are pretty much the most exaggerated and stereotypical media portrayals of abusive/deadbeat parents possible. And it's been established and mentioned by other characters at this point that Mario is an unstable unfeeling psychopath who goes way too far, not someone to emulate. Giving a character like that a "parents were abusive, he finally snapped and killed them, that was the first step in the path to evil" is a pretty common villain backstory.

A new chapter means we can soon be wowed by JazzFlight's chapter 7 song.

Not quite as much material for him in that one I'm afraid. Other than a couple things in the Kario scene there weren't too many memorable quotes in this chapter.

Sylar never ate the brains did he? I thought his power was the ability to see how things worked. He just cut off the top of their heads, looked at their brains, and then knew how to do their power. Like how he could fix clocks so well just by looking at them.

Could have been way off though. I only watched the first two seasons too so it could have been revealed for all I know.

You're right, there was a later scene where we see him cut someone's head open and examine their brains. And Claire asks him if he eats the brains and he says "That's disgusting."

Man that show was so loving terrible

I can't stop laughing at that painting. If a poster here said he drew it, I would just think it was awesome. But the fact that a poster got someone else who had no idea what it was in reference too (and probably doesn't even know who Tails is in general from the Sonic games) makes it both awesome and hilarious.

What was your dad's reaction when you showed him that? Was he just like "Okie dokie, I'll paint that cartoon character" without questioning, or did he ask what it was from or what? And did you try to explain it to him?

Oh man these last few pages have been incredible. All the increasingly outlandish poo poo was great too but for some reason just seeing all these wacky loony tunes characters dealing with mundane real-world "group of 20-something year old guys trying to go out drinking" problems like finding a designated driver and having to pacify the two guys in the group who don't like each other is immensely entertaining.

So is the legit end of the page with her summoning the dark lord or is there more? I don't even care about the goatse I just need more comic!

The last thing made by lazerbot was Porky being dragged off by her and Wile helping Elmer up.

The stuff about her summoning the dark lord was made entirely by that poster, if you look closely they're all panels from the last page copy/pasted and stretched out and all the dialogue was typed by him.

Porky's portrayal in this comic sort of reminds me of Stevie Janikowski from Eastbound and Down.

Hey just a reminder to those you doubt Lazerbot's genius. Remember that scene where Porky the Pig told the hot woman he had sex with to gently caress off? He had a ring on and was beginning to say he had a wife.

How the gently caress does this comic have such weird loving foreshadowing and extremely weirdly high levels of continuity like Dr. Eggman's moonbase and Petunia Pig? I'm back to thinking this is some sort of elaborate troll.

The best source-material continuity linkage was when Kario mentioned that when Mario was born he gave him away to a stork and told him to get rid of the baby. You know, to explain the beginning of one of the Yoshi's island games where we saw baby Mario come from being dropped off by a stork.

I've never played any of the newer sonic games but I'm guessing my first impression of silver being awesome from this comic will be utterly dashed if I was to see his canon (caanon?) form in the games?

Also, interesting article. Gonna guess that it's not so much an issue of character ownership/copyright as it is of finding a role for Fang. .

It's definitely not an issue of ownership/copyright since his name and picture showed up on a "Wanted" poster in Generations.

It's a bit jarring coming back to the present and Silver and Tails after this long derail of the neutrals.

I enjoyed every minute of it though, it's funny how incredibly detailed the story became.

Also a lot of the story was told from Porky's point of view during times that the other four weren't even there, so I'm assuming one of them ate Porky's brain to get his memories at some point.

I'm only a casual comic book fan (haven't bought a single comic since 1996 or so, only vaguely follow storylines of characters I'm interested in through wikipedia and BSS threads every once in awhile, don't really pay much or any attention to differences between writers and especially not artists) but I knew exactly what was in that spoiler text before hovering over it.

So Bowser is a member of Shadow's Troll Slaiyers, right? At this point I think I need a flowchart to keep track of who belongs to which faction.

Yeah when I saw that it took me awhile to remember that in this story Bowser is actually with the heroes and that Mario is a bad guy.

You should use the Akon remix of Sweet Sweet Sweet for something, JazzFlight. It's amazingly terrible.

It still amazes me that they got a successful hip hop artist to write lyrics to a 16-bit video game song.

Also the Sonic 2 ending credits theme wasn't even like one of the 20 best songs from the Genesis Sonics.
