Name Game: The Important Australians

[Cgull]

I'm pretty sure that the joke is that neither Shanks nor Yahtzee are actually Australian, but are mistakenly assumed to be due to accents etc.

Or it was a cock-up. Either way, good for a giggle!

 

[WanderingFool]

Wait... was Yahtzee putting Shanks in a headlock? Dammit, why doesnt interesting stuff like that happen where I live...

 

[SPARTANXIII]

Is that supposed to be Yahtzee?

He's British you know...

even if he was australian, i doubt he'd go nuts over a newell-touched half life 2

Damn straight, If anything the best route for survival is to just get out of his way.

 

[Kilgengoor]

I hereby forget any Name Game-related offenses I suffered in the past. Use it wisely, Scaldaferri.

Happy birthday, you filmographic genius, you.

 

[Irony's Acolyte]

Well that was an interesting comic. First there was the fight which I thought could be interesting but then Saxton Hale came crashing in and then the whole thing just got really manly. And Alix's mustache was pretty cool. Couldn't recognize Shanks right away, but Happy Birthday anyway!

Also I think that you messed up Hale's chest hair. I believe it's supposed to be in the shape of Australia, the manliest country the world's ever known.

He's British you know...

Yeah, but he lives in Australia, so he gets in on a technicality.

Well no, plenty of British movie actors live in America. That doesn't make them American.

They're not the ones in question though Saxton was just saying if Alix wanted to fight like an Australian then she used use the stash he didn't offer anyone else one(yet).

OK, normally I don't find this strip particularly funny (least when compared to some of the others on this site), but that flat out killed me.

"It's so warm..."

 

[leviadragon99]

Huh... well Yahtzee is an obvious guess, but who's the other guy...

 

[Tharwen]

...someone hire Lund and Shanks to make a new series right now!

Also, Yahtzee would only fight over a copy of Psychonauts which had been licked several times by Tim Schafer. Nothing less.

 

[Twilight_guy]

I don't know what just happened... but I liked it. Its was like short trip into madness... and moustachioed wonders.

 

[duchaked]

lol we need another series from Shanks...

Is that supposed to be Yahtzee?

He's British you know...

even if he was australian, i doubt he'd go nuts over a newell-touched half life 2

lol didn't Yahtzee get invited to Valve? probably touched Newell himself
as in...a handshake or two or more haha

Didn't Michael Shanks play Daniel Jackson on SG-1?
Also, Happy Birthday!

Different Michael Shanks. Daniel Jackson!Michael Shanks is from Canada. Doomsday Arcade Michael Shanks is from Australia.

Well darn. thanks for the tip tho.

 

[PixelKing]

Shanks!

You made my day.

 

[Madara XIII]

I, uh... Wow... I grew a beard just by reading this!

O_O HOLY HELL!!!! Yahtzee!! Secondly that was so awesome that Alix grew a CURLY MUSTACHE!

Where my CURLEH MUSTACHE AT!?!?

 

[samsonguy920]

Even with all the oops, this comic is still pure win.

 

[samsonguy920]

Is that Yahtzee? wtf? I didn't think he would fight over something so trivial.

Seriously, Portal is much more important to fight over!

 

[Latinidiot]

NOw you know why I grow man hair on my face.

 

[Mute52]

Saxton Hale? This comic is instantly 100x awesome

 

[Mr Companion]

Is that supposed to be Yahtzee?

He's British you know...

Indeed, as Psycho from Crysis would say "He's British you muppet!"
On the other hand, Happy birthday Mr Shanks! I didn't know you were Australian!
