Migraine Ninja April
That’s right, folks! A totally not fake announcement that’s totally not being made up for Bad Internet Joke Day! Though seriously, at this point, who would be surprised if I really DID put comics on hold again?
…actually, that would be surprising, because this here gag page is actually a rare case of me getting a page fully finished AND pre-loaded to the website in advance, specifically so that I’d have more time to work on page 1218. Stupid April 1st landing right at the start of the weekend when I usually start work on new pages AND right in the middle of a scramble to finish a batch of Conventional Wisdom comics…
But yeah, tune in on the regularly scheduled time for the next REAL Far Out There page, and hopefully we’ll finally be back to having fresh TWC Voting Incentives next Thursday as well!
Oh, and by the way, I FINALLY exhausted my supply of Far Out There Character Soundtracks over on Patreon, so you should totally become a patron and finally see what that’s all about!
Hmmm..banner above says FOT is #1 at TWC…and not just some spoof for the first 5 min of the month, it’s already 4/2 now….must be part of the April Fools, right? Almost got me there! 😉
hovertext: As someone who actually suffers from chronic migraines, I assure you that painkillers are very very much your bestest friends ever. Even if we assume that MNK only has superpowers while the migraine is in effect and that’s why the painkillers are fighting…then still no, I’d have to give up my superpowers if I had to have a migraine for them to be in effect.
vote incentive: caption has it all wrong, at least as far as i’m concerned. It’s not the restaurant I DON’T like that has the deadly buffet, after all I’m not going to eat there, or if forced to would not eat much – it’s the restaurant I LOVE that is the threat to my life. Anyone who has ever studied nutritionology knows that the most deadly substance in the universe is deliciousness! Just look at all the nasty healthy foods that exist and their horrifically unhealthy tasty counterparts. It’s definitely the delicious restaurant that is the threat to your life!
@ Comic: I see this as an obvious joke. There’s NO way Blitz is willing to do an entire comic focused solely around action scenes. Even if the comic is about a ninja girl with a migraine who got her head stuck in a giant cat mask, fighting to get pain relief into herself, but unable to due to all the available ones being pain relief pills, and the cat-mask meaning that she can’t get said pills into her mouth.
@ Incentive: The Doom Potato’s are the ones that aren’t dangerous to eat. The “Mortis” Macaroni imperil your mortal coil, while what I assume to be “Suicide” Biscuits is deadly enough to just outright kills you. The “Doom” Potato’s, meanwhile, just doom you to the horrors of living a longer life.
Oh my gosh, it didn’t even OCCUR to me how much I’d never be able to draw a comic like this. That just shows how far outside my wheelhouse it’d be!
Well, not really – TKSDD was essentially a spin-off action comic with Ichabod as the Die-Hard Everyman hero – and that show turned out to be a great ratings success – so you’d have to just do it in the simpler-sketchier format of TKSDD. This would be the cover art or first page art, in the long tradition of cartoons/comics/manga with a page or 2 of high quality color art and then the remainder in lower quality b/w.
I am very short-sighted. I wear powerful glasses. With powerful glasses, comes
great powerslight chromatic aberration. Enough that intense reds and blues will be focused slightly differently, so my left eye sees the reds as being to the right of intense blues, and my right eye sees the opposite.Consequence – the reds on this page stand out in front of the blues, to the extent that I see a 3d image that peeps with regulation-quality eyes won’t see! It’s real freaky! Ninja-migraine-kitty is in wonderful 3d! The banner text is in front of the screen! The blue background is in the background!
I’M NOT THE ONLY PERSON THIS HAPPENS TO?!?!?!?!?!?
