They aren't too crazy in the "using-different-pictures" area, but I'm a bashful child, beginning to grow.

Norman and T.O.M.B.O.T. by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-04-08

Uh... What do the letters T.O.M.B.O.T. stand for? Well, Norman, as you know, my name was Tom. We were astronauts together on the same ill-fated mission to the Robot Planet, rescued from the wreckage by well-meaning but ill-informed medic-bots. Uh...Yeah. That sounds familiar. Aside from some minor brain damage due to a concussion, you ended up more or less as you were before. I, however, had to be spead between two circuit boards like a god-damned smoked salmon pate! I see... So what do the letters T.O.M.B.O.T. stand for? I think the periods between the letters look like little rivets. The rest is all what you call smooooth exposition, baby.

Norman and T.O.M.B.O.T. by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-04-08

So you're telling me that the Robot High Council has designed living quarters for us with a built-in Earth Simulator? That's right, Normal Boy! We'll feel right at home from now on! That's swell. But...uh... has anyone on the Council ever BEEN to Earth before? How will they know what it's like? Oh, shit! There was a meeting about that! Wow, those guys have high-powered telescopes.

Norman and T.O.M.B.O.T. by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-04-08

I'm hungry. Well, good luck with that. As far as I know, nothing much grows on the Robot Planet. Yeah... I guess that means no farm-fresh produce, no homemade pumpkin soup... Sounds about right, what with no pumpkins and all. I've stopped caring.

not too bad. well developed plot, put some thought into this huh?

Kill Whitey.

Thanks - I'm not sure I did, really, but it's fun.

Norman and T.O.M.B.O.T. by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-04-08

This SO sucks. Am I the only one on the whole planet what needs to eat sometime? Oh, wait. What's that in the distance? Remember those space suit things? That you need to wear?

Norman and T.O.M.B.O.T. by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-04-08

What the crap were you THINKING? If you just go DIE by yourself, who will reconstitute your components into a form that can stand here talking to me all day? Yeah... didn't think of that. See, while you have kept your BODY and lost your MIND, I have done the opposite! Yeah... didn't think of that either. Cool. So you guys see what I did there, huh? Our theme music should be along any second.

Okay, there's an episode 2 now. I should have given these numerical parts so people can easily see they're chronological. I'll continue these, but am figuring it'd be a bit of bad form to keep posting every single one in this forum. If I get a really new idea I'll do it again, but I'll leave it for now and wait for anyone with feedback, etc.

Meanwhile... I could die of hunger any second. I'm so dizzy... And yet you're still here with me. You're a real pal, you know? Uh... yeah. Staying is what a pal would do. Does time pass when we're not in an episode? Because I'm starting to realize something about myself... Well, use those vocal cords you've still got, Mister Keepbody, and lay that shit down for me right here and now! Oh Yeah... That reminds me. I'm starting to get hungry. Much as I've LOVED this game for the past week or so, you guys look like you could use some "adventures".

Alright, I've been using the random function to help me try things out, expand palette etc., and I kind of like this one.

The Random Function #5: STORIES FROM THE NIGHT by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-04-08

At Work... Huh? Did that bird say my name? SQUAAAAWK At Play... He DID! That's TWICE! HEEP HEEP HEEEEEEP AND NOTHING HELPED! HA HA HA! (YOUR NAME HERE)

X-Files: Mulder + Scully Meet The Yeti by Charles M. Schulz by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-05-08

Mulder! We found him! Shhh... Stand back. I think he's sleeping. We'll just... OH MY GOD WHAT A SUCKER PUNCH! OW! Grr! wa WAA waa wAAA!

you seem to understand the premise of making comics

stir in some jokes and there might be something here

Thanks for the feedback, ausrotten. I hadn't been thinking "funny" so much, but I've seen more comics and the ones I like are definitely funny, and in a punchy, rather than oblique, way.

I think this was a good idea that deserved better. I probably should have dragged out the "shaggy dog / fish / bird" aspect of it longer. Oh, well.

First the Y3K problem, now this. by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-07-08

How do I change the date on this thing? I hate leap year. Maybe if I hold down two buttons at once... Hey, cool, that turns it into a banana!

I loved that last one.

Thanks! I love the expression on Spork's face.

I can't imagine someone not having done this one before, but I'll try anyway:

Helping Hands by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-08-08

I got this end, O'Malley. You got that one? Yep. Nobody's grabbing our booty today, that's for damn sure. What's going on down there, Mike? Looks like someone could use some help. O'Malley? That you? You sure smell good. He's over there, cutie.

I just saw that the joke in "Bulk Purchase" had already been made by TheGovernor several years ago in a great comic called "Behind the Scenes"; I'll delete mine as soon as I'm able to.

I kind of like this one:

Looks like it's just the two of us. by Trey_Suckabeefio 1-10-08

What's in the sack? Oh, not much, old man. 11 or so herbs and spices. That so? Yep. 11 or so heeeeeerbs and spices.
