#044 – Yipee For Skippy

May 28th, 2004 | by Lothar

And thus begins our second story arc, and no we won’t be staying in the house all the way through this one, so don’t worry :p.
Also a little thank you to Casey and Adrienne Young of AlterMeta for their linkage, that’s another cool webcomic I read thinking we’re funny. I really need to get around to updating our link’s section, since I read like 30 Bajillion webcomics everyday. I’ll probably get around to updating it later today.

Well because I was bored, and instead of typing an actual update, I made something extra for you guy’s. Something I’ve dubbed “Halo Funnies”, and it’s not an attempt to get more traffic to the site. If I wanted that I’d put stuff like SEX, HENTAI, and LESBIANS in the newspost. Enjoy.

Ok, time for me to bugger off, see ya later.

Fanart Update

n00 fanart. Fanart that’s sat forgotten in my inbox for about a week >>; Sorreh Quizmire, but it got there eventuallly. Thanks ^^

Advantages of being the writer of a webcomic…

May 21st, 2004 | by Lothar

Being able to embarrass the artist despite my lack of artistic ability, such as this comic here. And I just love the way Virus made Lothar look so fucking pissed off in Panel 3 ^^.

And that dog in Panel 3……that’s pretty much an accurate representation of the shit I have to put up with sometimes at work.

I wonder how many fragile minds we destroyed with panel 4. Even worse, I wonder how many people are actually turned on by Virus in drag, *shudder*

A new story arc starts next week, and in it we introduce 3 new semi-regular characters, so I hope you enjoy that as well.

Well I’m gonna shut up for this week, enjoy the comic and I’ll cya later.

#043 – OOC: Real Life

May 21st, 2004 | by Silversword

Heh. This idea always made me chuckle. There are a couple of slight inconsitancies, mind. First, naturally, being that my desk at work was never that clean. Not really my fault, or my junk – I work(ed) in a shithole of an office, and I wasn’t about to clean up their mess.
Second; the day you catch me willingly wearing a white shirt ever again is the day you die. :)

In other news…well, I don’t have any other news, really.

This is why I don’t post much, truth be told.

Hey. I wanna try an experiment.

Why don’t you vote for us? We never harp on about voting, we’re really not that bothered. I just thought it might be interesting to see what happens. So how ’bout them votes, just outta curiosity.

#042 – Guest Script: Its Not Good For Your Eyesight Either

May 14th, 2004 | by Lothar

Well here’s the comic produced from the winning script of the script competition we ran a few week’s back, and it’s a very well done one. Again congratulations to Tristan for the winning entry. (And for giving me a week off from writing, WOO!) Hope the comic meet’s your approval.

We also have some new fan art for you this week. The first piece is from Sycthe of Purgatory *points to link at bottom of page*. Badaas Lothar anyone?. I think it rocks, a lot. The second comes from ShadowKnuxx, wow…what an origional name. Remember my post from last week proclaiming a Crocodile the King Of France? If not, hit the “last” button on the top or bottom of the comic and see the inspiration behind THIS.

E3 got into full swing this week, and the I’ve been salavating over the new HALO 2 information, screenshots and videos. I’ve made it no secret that I think HALO on the Xbox is one of my favourtie games of all time. If not ‘the’ favourite of mine. I wont go into detail voer the massive tweaks and improvements over the game. Since you can find that on any gaming website, but this look’s like one of the rare sequels to be better than the origional game. And being better than Halo comes at no easy task.

BTW, anyone who sends me any emails saying anything like calling me and Xbox fanboy or saying Halo sucks can just fuck off. Clear? Good.

Again, congratulations to Tristan for winning the script competition.

Last minute edit!

I’d meant to dabble with the designs a bit more this week, but designing Posh Git Virus and Rogue was all the design work I could stand for one week -_-; Lothar’s logged off by time of writing, so I can’t ask his opinion on this addition. But how about dogtags? Just came to me after a couple people had suggested a chain or medallion of some description. I didn’t think jewellery was Lothar’s thing, but tags might work – he is an ex-military supersoldier.
Tell me what ya think Loth. I still got a copy of the strip without em, if they aren’t to your liking.

#041 – Higher Class Of Humour

May 7th, 2004 | by Lothar

This is one of those comics that just wouldnt work without the great visuals. *Look’s at panels 3 and 4, then snickers*

I haven’t got much to say at the moment as it’s 11:30 pm at the time of typing this and I have JUST finished typing out 3 essays, so I’m not exactly in the mood to type anything, I’ll probably edit this tommorow.

And I just remembered I never got around to re-writing the next storyline…..FUCK *starts that*

Edit, 10:25 PM: Right now I’m back with a little rant. About Steve “Croikey” Irwin, aka the Crocodile Hunter.

I used to find the guy entertaining, now he’s just annoying. He does the same thing every time he’s on TV. He either:

a) Get’s a stick and smacks an animal with it until the thing tries to eat him.
b) Jump’s on an animal and try’s to get it to bite him.
c) Throw’s food at the animal in a vague attempt to get it to attack him.
c) Dangles a live baby in front of Crocodile (no shit he did this with his OWN FUCKING KID).

The last point, I somehow doubt Irwin though he was actually putting his kid in danger and would have beaten the shit out of the crocodile if it even tried to eat his kid. But Jesus Spoony Christ! YOUR HOLDING A BABY IN FRONT OF A LIVE CROCODILE FOR FUCK’S SAKE, DOESEN’T THAT SEEM EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT STUPID?

Also you know all these dangerous and/or poisonous creatures in Australia? Like those Spider’s that live in toilet’s and the evil Boxing Kangaroo’s of Doom? How come none of em have managed to kill the bastard yet? He might as well stick a giant sign round his neck saying “EAT ME” in some of the situations he get’s into.

One day a Crocodile will eat him, and that Crocodile shall be made the King of France as a reward, just like in this Artist’s rendering that was not bunged up in 5 minutes in MS Paint by me.

Edit, Saturday 10:25 PM: Seem’s someone who really likes Steve Irwin can’t take a fucking joke.

And also I made a special apperance in this week’s Purgatory comic, so go check that out.

AND I RETURN!

Edit, Monday 3rd of May: Just discovered that East made a cameo in today’s S.S.D.D (3rd of May 2004 if your looking at this post in the archives). S.S.D.D is one of my favourite webcomic’s and it is very cool to see one of the chracters from EN in it. East I am so fucking jealous, you bastard. *end edit*

My computer fucked up this week and so I’ve been without a regular net connection since Tuesday. Which was OK as I had plenty of other stuff to do and because of that I learned quite a few things that I want to share with you.
1) You REALLY miss talking to your girlfriend in America without a net connection.
2) Ironically, with no Internet connection it is really easy to almost finish an essay on the Internet for University.
3) “Bowling for Columbine” is possibly the funniest film/documentary thing ever created.
4) Charlton Heston is a FUCKING SICK TWAT WHO I HOPE DIES VERY SOON.
5) It is possible to waste half an hour flipping a coin over and over and over.
6) The magazine publisher’s here in the UK are running out of ideas. Case in point “Fire Engines of the World”.
7) There is no 7.
8) You wonder if Stewie in Family Guy is actually gay and trying to cover it up. Or is trying to look gay to attract women. If it’s the latter it seem’s to be working.

#040 – The Lothar Way

April 30th, 2004 | by Virus

Yello. Virus here for some ‘artist’s commentary’ on the above strip. A little bit of experimentation went on this week, and some feedback might not go amiss. First off, plain clothes Harry. It seemed a little odd having Hal walk around in his coat all the time. However without it, he looks naked. I mean… he is naked, but what I mean is, from a design standpoint it’s lacking. So, I dunno, I kinda improvised this shirt thing. Whatcha think? I may dabble in some more outfits over the coming weeks.

Second, Lothar’s missing his chest crescent. Lothar requested that we try going without the mark, in a bid to deviate some more from the Knuckles design origins. Personally I think he looks a little bare without it. Any suggestions from our readers? Keep it, lose it, change it to something else?
