Critical Miss: #4

[BobisOnlyBob]

I didn't spot the hamster the first time (too busy being startled by the violence). Liked the bad pun though, it's worryingly true.

That hamster had better keep that grapple/parachute, even long after Just Cause 2 is a memory, just because the idea of Rico-hamster is too good to stop.

The fridge?

Is that a shout out to heavy rain?

 

[For.I.Am.Mad]

A webcomic that doesn't rely on excessive cursing? What the hell is going on?

 

[JEBWrench]

Punchline was a bit lame, and it wasn't that funny.

There was one of those?

I appreciated the fridge reference... wasn't roffle worthy or anything but it got a smirk.

The girl's B^U face in the last panel is an accurate summary of my feelings towards the strip.

I have to agree. With someone named Hurr Durr Derp. That's no good for my self esteem.

There is no shame in agreeing with HDD. He's one bad mutha.

 

[Tom Phoenix]

On the bright side, you could say he put more thought into this title than the developers ever did. Or vice-versa.

Gold, pure gold. XD

I'm loving this comic. Dark humour, you gotta love it.

 

[addeB]

Awesome comic, almost steals penny arcades first place on my list

 

[Abedeus]

best to not have continuations from previous strip <.<

Love the ones that won the contest. but not so much these new ones t.t

Well, the #3 was good. #4 was pretty unfunny, as opposed to the second contest strip. I WANT IT BAAAACK!!

Also, background action reminds me of old Scrooge McDuck comics, where there would be so much going on on every panel, you usually had to read the dialogs, then look for animals or other characters in funny situations, poses, or doing other hilarious stuff that isn't relevant to plot. Hamster on parachute - awesome.

 

[Rect Pola]

*Gasp* Continuity! Who would have guessed?

 

[zombie711]

what is the name of the main character?

 

[D_987]

Pretty good; not my sort of humour, but the art style isn't bad.

 

[Littaly]

Man, you missed an opportunity for a CSI Miami gag.

 

[felixader]

Is the title also meant to be a Pun or is that pure coincedence? ^-^

 

[pumasuit]

that was damn funny!

Heh. You made me notice it. Thanks.

Are you on the same boat of people that have to have a solid visible punchline to enjoy a comic?

99% of gamers on a couch comics have that, I'm sure I could pick one out for you -.-

 

[Weaver]

You had me laughing in panel one when she Indana Jonse'd out of a lead 50's fridge

It's not about visual gags, it's about unfunny jokes and bad writing. If this is the kind of thing you enjoy, good for you. But please don't go assuming that just because someone thinks any particular strip sucks it's because it's not similar enough to other gaming comics. If anything, it's too much like other gaming comics. Perhaps the setting is at least vaguely original, but that's pretty much it. This particular strip reaches Tim Buckley levels of badness, hence my B^U remark (also because that's what her face looks like in the last panel).

Man, you missed an opportunity for a CSI Miami gag.

Hahaha, dammit, so true!

 

[Nincompoop]

Wow, didn't expect a bit of ultra-violence from this comic. This think the punchlines aren't strong enough. Visual humour is getting there (Nice Just Cause 2 hamster).

How perceptive of you. Made the comic better. I thank you.
