the story in the newspost about Khoo watching the freeplay area for good dudes is too cool

he brought me three young men, told me there was nothing they could not accomplish in within the confines of the rhythm genre, and then immediately left the room through a door which only a few moments prior had not existed.

Man, what an awesome experience. You're just a regular dude, having fun showing off your mad skills at PAX for a good time, and all of a sudden there's a firm but kind hand on your shoulder. You hear the voice that commands the gods.

"It's time."

You have been chosen. One of Khoo's hands opens the door you always dreamed of, but could never find. The other hand guides you through unknown paths that few have seen, fewer have walked, and through which only one can truly guide another. Your powers are required for the good of humanity. Khoo stands before the last door. On the other side: Tycho and an empty stage. They call for aid - and who else can answer but you?

This comic is pretty great

But this newspost is [CLIP]

Holy shit

I found this video of it too. Audio doesn't seem too much better, but the video is a lot clearer and closer (they filmed one of the screens).

Anyway.
This comic has a very Louis CK bag-of-dicks vibe. The best kind of vibe.

Well played.

KalTorak

Now I'm in the mood for a milkshake.

heywired

Kingworks, nice strip! Is that a fan strip? That's pretty cool! New to boards, forgive the naivete.

Darlan

I wonder if they shouldn't have just extended the initial conversation and have the second panel be the third instead, I'd already started laughing there.

Or at least take out the second conversation and just show the horse standing there.

Edit: Reading that again, it sounds like I'm just complaining. I did like the comic!

jackal

100 is a pretty big number when you think about it in terms of horse dicks.

'Tis and thanks.

Seen some others do the same before, thought I'd take a crack at it - the edit, not the subject matter. >_>

No, you're right. This one suffers from fairly advanced CAD Syndrome. Tycho's dialogue is totally unnecessary, or could at least be cut way down. There's no reason for him to fully reiterate that Gabe is committed to gargling horse cock. Panel 1 is right over there! I didn't forget the setup to the joke in the intervening panel.

Oh, also: Kingworks, quality edit! You should know, though, that there's a dedicated thread for comic edits. I guess the mods got tired of them saturating the new comic thread.

That's like 600 human dicks!

So what you are saying is the characters in a webcomic about video games are not original enough for your high standards?

Apologies! I'll keep that in mind for future posts.

UnbreakableVow

This is my favorite comic in a long while

Man, you're complaining about a comic about gargling horse cocks. This is a new low.

Darlan

Setting horse cocks aside, that is some nicely done pastoral landscape there. Those clouds!

I'd love a big landscape jpeg done in that style for my desktop.

BoomShake

I really like the use of earth-tones.

curlybro

Per Gabe's Twitter - "Yes I drew the first panel of today's strip based on my old artwork. It was really difficult but a lot of fun!"

Per Khoo's Twitter - "In Jerry's post he makes it sound like I hand picked them. No sir! I asked the Freeplay Stage Enforcers to keep an eye out - thanks guys!"

Lucky Cynic

Love this comic and not just for the bestiality.

I approve of this comic

bawkbawkboo1

Does anyone have the link to Mike drawing a dickwolf? Or even a still picture of the drawing? I searched "dickwolf" on youtube, and there is a real TV producer with the name "Dick Wolf" whose results overtook any PA related stuff. Holy shit, what a name.

EDIT: Oh shit thanks, I didn't see that video

Until I read this post I had no idea that this was something I wanted.

cooljammer00

There is no reason you can't just Youtube Dick Wolf PAX.

AncientRelic

This comic requires a crossover with Least I Could Do and a cameo from Rayne Summers.

KalTorak

Someone do an edit of Gabe as Titania from "Midsummer Nights' Dream" who goes waaaaay too far.

Speed Racer

This would've been a fun one to have a 4th panel/podcast of

I wonder if we all clap our hands together or something we can get them to go back to podcasts during breaks in PATV

but then it wouldn't be as funny

fightinfilipino

you know what's really hard? i mean, aside from horse cock?

trying not to laugh or even smile while reading this comic during class.



also, the Duke Nuken voice actor totally "trolled" Mike and Jerry at the first PAX Q&A panel!

It really, really doesn't.

I don't think anything requires that.

Supraluminal

I read LICD for a while, even had it in my daily comic bookmarks. Then I decided that I hated it.

On a comic-related note, I agree that the 2nd panel is very pretty! I wonder if Mike is still doing any non-comic related art, like the on-actual-canvas painting he was getting in to.

are you Rayne Summers

because if so I need to stomp on your crotch for a while

GeoMitch

there's a lot of porn when you google image search rayne summers

KalTorak

there are like a hundred porn stars with either rayne or summers in their name.

It was the first thing I noticed, too.

There's not being original and then there's copy pasting. Look at those characters for god's sake.

It's like Max (but with a bigger forehead), Brent (but fat), Jade (but fat), Cole (but more cartoony) and Francis (but taller).

You seem to reading an awful lot into this from that one promo picture.

There's something wrong with you if you can't tell that much at first glance.
