[PA Comic] Monday, April 2, 2012 - Perhaps Too Real

Galactic

Dungeon Defenders pack has Annarchy showing midriff. Scandalous.

Beastro

Oh man this made me laugh so hard even before I read it. Great job.

Tycho looks...oddly youthful. I am getting almost a Tintin vibe.

I'm getting a Beavis and Butthead vibe.

I genuinely choked on my food when I opened this comic. Holy fucking shit, it nearly goddamned killed me.

Amazing.

Syphyre

It was a very strange conversation, because it’s becoming very clear that for ninety-five percent of usage cases NOBODY needs a computer.

There is more truth in this sentence than anyone knows.

bionic

So wonderful. An excellent way to kick off the new month!

Just to confirm Jerry's assumption in his news post, I'd suggest the Wilton 10006/300S Machinist Vise instead of a straight up anvil. Much more multi-purpose. and useful for everyday metal work, plus it's what I use at work. The real question isn't in what kind of striking surface to use, but in what kind of hammer.

Henroid

I almost forgot to check on the new comic before heading out to work. Holy shit, so good.

FactorySquirrel

Metalsmiths are sexy. I realize that "metalsmiths" (as opposed to just "smiths") may be redundant, but I wanted to pre-emt any Morrissey jokes.

It's awesome - it reminds me of Ren & Stimpy when they would cut to a super detailed closeup of something in a more realistic style.

Now that you mention it, I'm reminded of Spongebob - they would also cut to extreme close-up images of something, usually to gross effect.

naporeon

This isn't my favorite strip of all time, but it's definitely the best, in my opinion.

Just brilliant work. I can't imagine how hard it would be to draw such a profoundly uncharitable caricature that included yourself.

JollyTitan

Hahaha, this comic is awesome.

Has a beaves and butthead feel to it, its great.

Bacon-BuTTy

This is fucking incredible.

I've often wondered how mike and jerry would handle the first time Mike and Jerry have actually appeared in the comic, and this is just glorious.

AlienFanatic

All I can say is that in the case of this week's panel, whereas most people support the concept of truth in advertising, I'd rather be lied to.

AbsoluteZero

Mike, Jerry, I love you for this.

I needed a name to post.

This is literally amazing.

Tell me more about it's "jaw opening" and "throat depth." :winky:

Streck

Immediately, this slammed through my head:

We don’t look anything like the characters in the strip because we didn’t realize the characters were actually us until the second year. If that makes you angry I don’t really care. You’re ugly too, so stop fucking mailing me about it.

Adam Casalino

this was a pretty clever comic. i couldn't help but notice jerry's hawk like nose and mike's crossed eyes. must be terrible being them.

Svenne345

Holy crap. I really need a wallpaper of this or something. This is sick.

The Dude With Herpes

This comic makes me sad because seriously, where can they go from here?

This is their greatest work, hundreds of years from now it will be along side the Mona Lisa in the Louvre as one of the great artworks of history.

Dr_Keenbean

This really is, just, completely fantastic.

Aurich

"I saw some nightmare... and I was afeared. Turned my eyes away."

The Dude With Herpes

I can only pray for a 4th Panel on this one.

Please.

Thats it! With moldy green cheese stuck in Stimpy's teeth! Thank you! That was really bugging me

CottonStorm

After reading for like a goddamn decade, I never really felt the need for an account. TODAY, however, I need to say that this is the greatest thing ever.
I've been waiting to see Mike draw them into a strip for a long time!

fightinfilipino

i feel like this comic has PA coming full circle. this is the apex, the summit of achievement no other webcomic has touched.


that's...kinda depressing

Fandeathis

The comic just achieved nirvana.

Aegeri

Amazing comic.

Arenow

Just brilliant!
Oh god, I wish the 4th panel for this was coming out today!

Aretè

This will be my favorite comic for a long time.

Andy Joe

Everyone's talking about the second panel and rightfully so, but I just want to take a moment to acknowledge how delightful "the highest resomolutions" is.

ArbitraryDescriptor

A humble request for our PA Archivists:

What comic is Tycho reading?

I think that word originated with a GBA SP comic, and appear in another one besides that and this one. Sabre would know, but I'm at a loss.

CanisAquilus

Bravo gentlemen.

Bravo.

Faceless Coward

Jerry in panel 2 looks like The Penguin combined with the toon version of Ebert from The Critic. Mike in panel 2 almost looks like an Asian caricature. (It's ain't racist because I'm Chinese.)

MATPHAT

I never EVER post, even though I've been reading the comic since #6.
Today however, I cannot help but applaud the guys for this, the best comic they have ever done.
I pray for a 4th panel like everyone else, and wallpaper, yes please!

I also am a huge fan of "As internet demagogues..."
