#482 – Cut From Today’s Headlines

This strip evolved from the original idea into the final version you see. The original version had Martin uttering the “ninjamotronics” line. The more I threw this around in my noggin, the more I thought it would be funny if Martin was too speechless to finish the line.

Artist note: I’ll just be the first to point it out… The newspaper in the first panel is upside down. I suck.

      Thanks Matt! You saw the “behind the scenes” tests. Matter of fact, this is one that you pointed out to me I think. I like it. It works

    I’ve always associated booties that won’t quit with women in rap videos. Thanks for adding rabbits to that image.

      LOL! I hate those awkward moments where you’re the only one laughing at your joke. Happens to me twice a week.

    Hey Cap’n? I don’t think anyone can tell that it’s upside down. I had to squint to try to even see if I could tell. You can’t. By the way, the Love Boat is floating aimlessly out to sea. Better go get it!

    • wit

      I am totally confused by your comment, Jess. Have you been spray painting in air-tight enclosures again?

      • Jessica

        You don’t read your own posts. Aren’t you the tug boat captain?

        • wit

          The “Love Boat” thing threw me. Cut me some slack. It’s monday!

  9. Josh

    “Ninjamotronics and a booty that won’t quit.”
    Totally my motto in high school.

    • wit

  12. DuckAmuck

    Huh

    • wit

      See, it’s people like you who really make me feel better about myself. LOL! Thanks!

    I like the old font much more – it lent a certain manic feel to the strip. This looks too much like Andy Capp.
