New comic. Deals with the mentality of NC, and the ressurection of an old friend.

Enjoy.

Love it. I find yfrog to be a better image host than just using twitter by default... if you use tweetdeck it automatically uploads to there for you. It's just a bit easier for people to get to the image that way!

Awesome comic man, really impressed!

Tripple is not a word. Just for future reference.

actually, tripple IS a word, just used in the wrong context.

tripple
Pronunciation: /ˈtrɪp(ə)l/

noun
[in singular]a horse’s gait in which both left and then both right legs move together.

verb
[no object](of a horse) move at the pace of a tripple.

Origin:
late 19th century: from Dutch trippelen, from trippen 'to skip, trip'

But other than that, great laugh from a to be great web comic strip.

Thanks for kind words again guys. And to Higby for his attension.

Once again dont forget these are just to make us giggle, if at all. They arnt high art to be judged as such. There will be mistakes and typos, im just throwing this stuff together with what little i know of photoshop. And it really is little.

Don't undersell yourself, these are great and you have a real talent for both the art side and putting nuances and humor into them. No one would have guessed that Penny Arcade would go from goofy gaming comic to the juggernaut it's become... You can take this as far as you want to, Cosmical!

Higby is trying to say that you should make money off of this and send it to me. So that I have money.

Im pretty sure what he actually said was "destroy Penny Arcade by whatever means neccessary."

Thank's again Hig. I mainly just want to fill up a wall in your studio and create a fire hazard. A hilarious fire hazard!

Humble as ever. People would kill for talent like yours. A minor grammatical error here and there takes nothing away from your comic.

Also...DUCT TAPE! :rofl:

Complete lack of backgrounds.

I do have a job, and other hobbies, and things to do you know? Adding another few hours to the drawing for something that isnt particularly needed isnt something im willing to do sorry bud.

Think of it like telling a joke. When the Englishman the Irishman and the Scotsman walk into a bar, you dont describe what the houses are like in the distance do you?

Hahahaha awesome.

And the NC logo with bird on its face is pretty funny too.

haha didnt think anyone would notice that, nice job. (p.s. i only even noticed the NC logo was supposed to be a bird when i looked hard at it to draw it)

I also tried to make the floor of where the lil figures are look like the VR in planetside 1. But i couldnt remember the colour and there are virtually (PUN) no pics on google of it.

Don't mind the haters - you do some awesome work! The VR looks pretty spot on to me. :D

Also Geist, Duct tape is in fact what it is called - that's how I learned it anyway. Duck/Duct is interchangeable.

I wasnt being defensive, although it did come accross as a lil bit aggressive. I was hoping to explain why i dont do backgrounds.

Truth be told the most boring part of the process is colouring to me, i could draw all day but that part is pretty much soul sapping to me. And anything i can do to have alot less to colour is a godsend. Chuck a gradient in there and hope no one notices i say. hehe

Lol I honestly didn't know the yellow was a bird head and wing either after all these years, till a few weeks ago. I always thought it was a gastropod/ancient snail thing.
The VR was easily recognizable. Love that any PS player will pick up on these inside jokes.

You have amazing potential. Anything can be learned, but talent you are born with and the passion creates you. It doesn't hurt to try to do something you love for your profession bro. :)

As little as it may mean, I think you are incredibly talented and intelligent.

Feel free to PM me with corrections guys. Im not the most gramatically skilled, and i would like them to be correct, a PM will avoid you looking like a knit picker to others and probably help me alot.

I think its when you spend hours staring at something, rather than mistakes becoming obvious you kindof become numb to them, or your mind skips over them.

Anyway thanks again for your possitive support. Will start working on the TR soon, already got the idea.

great work!
again!

and don´t mind typos or words that don´t officially exist or something ;-)

everybody knows what tripple is supposed to mean.
and i actually like the gorilla typo ;-) this duke nukem guy just doesn´t give a shit ! fits perfectly as it is!

thanks a lot for giving us da giggles!
and it makes our devs happy as well! that´s the best part because happy devs make better games ;-)

i am curious what you come up with for the tr!
maybe something resembling zapp brannigan who likes to send in waves after waves of his own men until the killer robots kill-limit triggers ;-)

Guess i need a proof reader. Its been really anoying me all day trying to remember if i put dessert or desert on the first one. Price i pay for reading 2 books my entire life. haha

Anyone want to volunteer their services? Preferably someone like me who is usually always online?

PM me your Skype or MSN, preferably an IM and not Twitter.

Cosmical...please please please, I am begging you. Keep doing this. Nurture this talent of yours. Keep making these comics regularly. Not every one will be a big hit, but don't let that stop you or even slow you down. Even the best comedians in the world have jokes that bomb, but you have a gift. Many people say they have a good sense of humor, but the ability to actually write jokes that are funny is a special skill that sets you apart.

Duct tape was a great punchline, but triple shotguns made me literally laugh out loud. Keep up the great work, dude.

Awesome job, I haven't have a good laugh for days or weeks but this masterpiece made my day! :) Thanks man!

Also, duct tape will be a planetside meme for sure! If I ran an NC outfit I'd name it after that! Fits the empire theme so nicely, and even typos are a fine stylistic addition to the NC "hired gun" character! I'd suggest to keep it!
