General, comic
If you’ve decided to take a break from the furious nut-punching awesomeness of the new Smash Bros. game this week (we barely did) you may have noticed that we added a new comic to our comic section. The plan is to release a new strip every Wednesday, and like most video game web comics, try to find a balance between topical gaming humor (not to be confused with topical gaming creme) and our deranged and distorted revisionist memories of the ghosts of gaming’s past.
Where we differ from your typical web comic is our presentation. Instead of locking ourselves into a definitive art style and having to shoehorn the rest of our comic ideas into a forced look, we’ll be running with whatever visual representation we feel suits the idea best at the time. So expect a wide range of lunacy every time you click on the “comic” button in our navigational bar, should you choose to do so. Which you should, stoopid!
So far we’ve wondered if the Wii will die naked and alone, dipped into the past to discover what violent video games dinosaurs played before committing carnivorous acts, figured out why Mario is too occupied to clean his desktop, and how Altair from Assassin’s Creed tries to use his crowd-blending skills to avoid ending up on NBC. Every Wednesday, a small slice of exciting newness for your jaded little eyeballs. At least it’s better than staring at that ironic Garfield poster your boss hung outside your cubicle, right?
