Damn straight. I owe you that much!
inb4 other dudes with Joe/Cobra character usernames want to put themselves in the comic, too
The noks made the comic, nice. Was that some opium based grape soda, That conversation reminded me of Revenge of the Nerds 2 when ogre said, What if c.a.t. really spelled dog. Great stuff bro!
Thanks, man! I like these dialogue-driven ones where it's just characters talking about meaningless bullshit due to the soul-crushing monotony of their day-to-day lives, like something out of a Kevin Smith film, only substantially less amusing. I had planned some Clerks-style Cobra strips more than a year ago and never got around to using them, so I think I'll bust them out some time soon. At least one of them, anyway.
What I had planned was that the dialogue would always be between the same pair of Cobras (like a Viper and Siegie, or something), and we'd see them doing different tasks while absentmindedly talking about unrelated stuff. You know, breaking into a defector's apartment and killing him while chatting about the sex appeal of Disney princesses, or something. The lunch story with the hot dog is probably the only decent example, but in that one, it's just talking heads and no action. Alright, so less Tarantino and more Clerks. Not that that's a problem.
Not to sound all heavy-handed or anything, but I've already written the script that I'll use for the final comic. Not that I want to end the series at all, but I just wanted to have a plan for when when I eventually (and grudgingly) need to announce the curtain call due to life-situation changes/injury/collapse of society/having to go into space to fight evil in my mech/etc. I wrote it years ago so I'll obviously need to tweak it, but the script for the final issue is a dialogue one, rich in send-off messages and bits that can be interpreted however you please. No explosions or anything over the top, just a calm, quiet goodbye. Going out the way it started - keeping it simple.
Okay, that wasn't exactly the direction I wanted to take this post. Goddamn it, I crapped all over your reply. Sorry, man.

At least she didn't sell out like Cammy and use roller blades and guns.
Thanks! I do what I can.
This week's issue features a trio who I haven't used before. Well, one of them was mentioned back in the double-digits, but this marks their first appearances. Dig in!
Nice Job Numbers. Not sure how I missed this one. Going back to the Old School with some O-ring love. First appearance by the Renegades no? Speaking of the Renegades.. wtf is up with those 7 pack ones? They look like shit.
>o-ring
>love
Oh yeah, I love me a design flaw.
People will baww about the new figures, but they'd bawww if they didn't make new figures either.
Goin' off-topic here. Yep, it's the first appearance of the Renegades. Taurus was mentioned way back in the first Beard Force comic, but he didn't appear until now. They didn't want him because his lame bald dome would drive chicks away, or something like that.
Fled, that's right, baby. ALL month.

I get tired of them, sometimes. I guess that makes them--Perfection! I love the CSI Miami jokes.
--a sleeper hit.
YEEAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Hardly anything impresses them, other than tits, so that's some accomplishment, eh?
Thanks, man! You want some more? Here's a new one:
It's going to be hard getting past hordes of Elves...!CC and his Loyal CG's.
I'm down with CC killing Santa. Hopefully it's a brutal scene
Sure is, man. The Siegies just can't catch a break.Going home early is always good.
http://ages25andup.blogspot.com/2011/12/next-comic-will-be-delayed.htmlno comic this week?
Shit, sorry, fellas. Real life unfortunately came first.
Awesome!! Great twist at the end and CC had me laughing the entire time. I liked the "shove" on the lil kid, the surveillance gear comment, Cap's cameo and the best line: "are you coming onto me?".
Another great year of comics... Can't wait to see what's in store for 2012

Thanks for all your support, man.
Here's the new comic. The last one of the year!
That christmas episode was the Shit bro! So many great lines in it. Loved the Cpt America cameo. Nice touch. New years was good too.
Better dead with without a redhead, right?Great Recap to a Great year of comics!
I would also like a happy ending from the masked hottie
Thanks, man!
The next comic will be up tomorrow. I'm having a bit of trouble typing this since my fingers are still frozen. Oops, is that a hint?
Exciting!
Sounds like the first comic of the new year will feature snow
Between the snow and the talk bubbles, there's plenty of white space in this issue.
hahaha. Nice lil story. Who's this Roy character? We need a Bio pronto!
Clutch always being the badsss! I agree with the plenty of white... maybe you could have done the speech bubbles in a blue? like a baby blue? Oh well.. Can't wait to see next weeks.

Well, the white of the snow and bubbles contrasts nicely with the black of the Stinger, and-- I don't know, I got nothin'.
The issue is Roy's bio. All you really need to know about him is presented in it. He's a Cobra driver (who claims to be the best), but is always overshadowed by his nemesis, Clutch. As such, he wants Clutch dead. Surely this'll end well!
I see. I'm sure Roy has a chance... maybe he will bring the sexy trooper for support or for a distraction
That would probably be damn effective against Clutch!
It might be... if Roy can get out of THIS one!
