#782: "I have knives and hands and everything."
 
Travel by cannon passes the on savings to you!

Chrismith 12-14-2006 12:15 AM

Hooray for Cannon Travel Service!

Although something tells me they're going to wind up stranded in the desert...

NikkTheTrick 12-14-2006 12:16 AM

Can't wait to see the way Jeff dies:rolleyes:

xravi 12-14-2006 12:19 AM

I played a game where you could travel by cannon.......somthing of mana or somthing.

Burkion 12-14-2006 12:20 AM

This can only end in one way;

Enjoyment.

greed 12-14-2006 12:23 AM

Secret of Mana for the motherfucking, cuntboggling win! Man I loved that game.

And Jeff can't die, he pisses off BM too much.

zealshadow 12-14-2006 12:29 AM

Ah, Cannon travel, just like in Sword of Mana. A pretty cool way to travel.

Fifthfiend 12-14-2006 12:37 AM

You really know how to tug at the ol' nerd-strings.

xravi 12-14-2006 12:39 AM

I win!

Demetrius 12-14-2006 12:49 AM

Killing time makes me happy, its been like 3 strips since the last wanton murder!!

Furioku 12-14-2006 01:33 AM

"Its murdering time" Love that quote. Thats also the quote I thought Brian was going to use but I was wrong. >_> Heh also love that quote from Fighter too, about Jeff being so legit.

Harmless 12-14-2006 06:21 AM

Heh i don't know why BM is so unhappy - he can cast feather-fall. And if he times it right he can also watch RM Thief and Fighter become craters.

Cactuar_Tamer 12-14-2006 11:01 AM

Yayz Secret of Mana Cannon travel; that brings back memories.

Loving Fighter's lines as always.

Great Cartoonist 12-14-2006 11:23 AM

I'd like to know where those backgrounds came from.

So would you prefer the honest guy who gives you the bad news straight on, or the lying prick who would (try to) make you think that nothing will go wrong?

PyrosNine 12-14-2006 11:46 AM

Good Ol Jeff, he appears illegit, but still carries through on the deal.

There's this one dilemma that was avoided in the game, as well as by SOM theater, that upon being shot the explosion would probably kill them, as well as the sudden and abrupt change in motion should kill them, and finally there's that slim chance they get shot out of the atmosphere and die from lack of air.

I love seeing where this is going.

psycosulu 12-14-2006 11:59 AM

thanks for the Secret of Mana reference, totally awesome. :o

ExcelDominus 12-14-2006 12:05 PM

I yearn for a big greesy spot on the next comic with the remains on red mage. That would be total bliss.

Technically they would die of the lack of pressure before suffocating, i.e. they would explode.

Sky Warrior Bob 12-14-2006 12:08 PM

Oh sure, when Jeff suggests something like this its a bad idea, but when BM suggests doing this w/ a Hadoken, its all good?

Hypocrite!

(Could somebody pull the comic in question? Thanks in advance.)

bass_virus 12-14-2006 01:29 PM

BM's right he totally can, i mean he has everything he needs to stab the life outta Jeff. I can see RM and Fighter being stupid enough to get shot out of the cannon, and i can see BM being forced into it, but i don't think that Thief is stupid or cheap enough to get shot out of a cannon.

Halpo 12-14-2006 01:45 PM

Stupid enough, no. Cheap enough, yes. In fact, he is cheap enough to allow Black Mage to kill Jeff, then still make everyone use the cannon, just so that he doesn't have to pay.

Ryong 12-14-2006 03:59 PM

Can't Thief simply steal the money back from Jeff after he paid him? It can't be that hard, even if he gets shoot out of a cannon in the meantime. Also, Secret of Mana 2 = Win.

I_Like_Swordchucks 12-14-2006 07:39 PM

The Thing AND Secret of Mana... I love references to random things. Of course, Secret of Mana trumps Fantastic Four by a long shot.

Sky Warrior Bob 12-14-2006 08:51 PM

Found the comic I was looking for...

See, Jeff's bad plans are much like BM's, only with less destruction to neighboring planets.

Greasy? As if a guy like Red Mage doesn't wash his hair occasionally.

No, wait. That wasn't my point...


Oh - if they stuff Fightar in the cannon first, the initial explosion won't kill them. Fightar can absorb the traumatic force without being ripped to shreds, acting as a buffer for the other three. Landing? ...eh. He can take it. It's only a lot of dirt he's hitting.

Doesn't Red have featherfall too? Thief can just uncannily dodge the blast radius, and later, dodge the ground.


Hehe, now I've got myself laughing. The Penultimate Ninja move, capable of contorting out of any harm's way: Mystic pretzel!!

The obvious implication in the following comic is that Black Mage is responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs on our own planet. Which is fantastically, deliciously implicational. Do the 8-bittians live on Mars? Or perhaps some other planet which will later become... dare I say... the debris that we like to refer to as the asteroid belt?

or he can steal the planet and sell it back to everyone in return for the light of the sun while dodging unpure air :D

Ryong 12-15-2006 09:12 AM

So...
Fighter just won't die. Get him in the cannon.
RM and BM got featherfall. Cannon for them.
Thief can use his stealing skills to steal the place where BM is after landing, so he'll change places with BM and make BM get thrown out of the cannon again. Then he finds out he's out of spells per day and can't cast featherfall.

MasterKazoom 12-15-2006 07:08 PM

I see the solution clearly in front of me.

BM kills Jeff. They loot his corpse.

What then? Who cares, another wanton murder is all BM needs.

shiney 12-15-2006 09:18 PM

I don't think Jeff will die.

Everything that happens, happens to hurt BM.
