Foiled Again
Maybe I’m strange, but I wonder about some of these guys Mario has to fight, especially Bowser with his bridge. Real smart Bowser. You go through all that trouble to capture the princess and protect yourself with goombas and koopas, and then you put an axe or key right next to the bridge?!? I was always a little confused as to what that thing was, a key or an axe, but apparently it’s an axe that mario steps on to make it snap the bridge supports. Actually I’d like to find out what you guys think that thing is. So here’s a poll:
I’m also not sure why Wart has a pipe organ/machine that shoots out vegetables when he’s allergic to them. But all villains need their weak point so the hero can inflict substantial…nay, MASSIVE damage. Anyhow, hope you enjoy the comic. Last week’s comic was the third in a row to win Joystiq’s Weekly Webcomic Wrapup, so I just wanted to say that we still really appreciate the support we’ve gotten. It’s a lot of work to do a webcomic (especially for Ray), even once a week. So it’s great when we get all this positive feedback because it makes us excited to be doing this. I’ve got a full-time job, an MBA program I’m in, and a wife to take care of. Ray has PLENTY on his plate too as he’s graduating from college this Saturday (yay Ray!). The point is, we don’t do this out of boredom because there’s plenty of other things to do with our time. We’ve really been enjoying this and hope we can keep it up for a long time. Thanks again!
Oh, and my favorite tagline from last week’s comic was a comment from Loki: “With great power comes great power consumption.” You can tell I love parallel phrasing from this week’s comic. There were a lot of taglines that made us laugh, so thanks for all the comments!
Yeah, I’d also like to say thanks for all the kind words. Also, my favorite comment from the ‘Enhanced Abilities’ comic was from Chris, “With great power comes real-time weapon change.”
