I didn't get it at first because of the different robe colours. I thought there was another Snake or something.

I can't imagine not liking this strip because of it being dark or inappropriate, how many of you kill hundreds of people in video games for enjoyment? Either you're being oversensitive, or it's some kind of false outrage to take a stance against the comic. I don't get it.

Well that was certainly... a comic.

Reminds me of the bad kind of "cringe" comedian. The ones where the amount of cringe you have to wade through far outweighs any existing traces of comedy.

Holy shit.. What is the point of this joke? Kill baby for loot?
When you take down enemies in MSG they often drop items.
So yes, it´s "Kill baby, get loot."

Don't worry, you were still funnier than the comic...

Seriously though, I'm the kind of heartless piece of shite that will normally quite reliably laugh at dead baby jokes, because it's the shear taboo obscenity of them that makes them funny to me (to quote what I think is one of the truest lines of throwaway dialogue ever written into a game "Humour isn't about being nice, sometimes it's about airing out the ugly things that people think"). However, that wasn't even particularly obscene. It was... well I'm not quite sure what it was but it sure as hell wasn't funny. You try and play a dead baby joke straight and you don't have a dead baby joke, you just have a dead baby.

Well. This was a depressing comic. Thanks for that, guys.

Maybe we can go back to Erin being dangled out of a window for 20 strips? I'd prefer that to this.

Wow...that's...wow.

So, as a cartoonist, how do you recover from a move like that?

Kinda took me a while to figure out what happened in that strip, and I played Metal Gear Solid. :/

The sarcastic comments at the end always ruin it. We get that you don't take no shit when creating your own web comic.

That's fine, we get it. Don't need to pretend its so crazy or so edgy that you have to head off some sort of fan rage by making the first hit by being sarcastic.

That's beside that I don't really get the comic, though I didn't play MGS.

Straight out of my own mouth, good man.

Seriously, this wasn't funny at all, and I'm generally all up for dark humour.

I see you've finally stopped trying to make a webcomic and are now just flinging shit at people so they'll make a big scene and thus level-up your internet cock. Welcome to the fate of all webcomics that aren't run by people with talent.

"...killing your own dad once is fairly damning, but by the third time..."

Wow, that's one tough dad.

Yeah.

Well, this strip really was a critical miss.
Ha! At least the comments are still funny today.

I too play Metal Gear and am very large.
That made me laugh more than it should have. Well done.

I'm not that large, though, I mean I can see my toes still.

Calumon: Not if you keep eating that cake, you won't.

Jack: SHUT UP! IT'S FRUIT CAKE! IT'S HEALTHY!
Ew. Fruit cake.

Anyway, this could have been a lot more terrible, but I will not share those dark thoughts on how for fear of them becoming real.
