Which class would be best at RB2?

January 6th, 2010 | by Shannon
Posted In: blog

So over New Year’s weekend, I went down to good ol’ Huntsville, AL (home of the space museum I have managed to not see twice now) and hung out with members of the Team Fortress 2 community known as Control Point. Some of the higher-ups requested I do a comic for a newsletter that would print daily for the duration of the convention. Unfortunately, there seemed to be a mixup when my turn came on the final day, so I never saw my strip run and I presume no one else did either. That’s what the Internet is for: to give to the audience what is rightfully theirs! (And to not feel like I wasted an entire Saturday doing the thing.)


(click to zoom in) (a lot)

I was asked to do something Rock Band related, since there was going to be an RB2 competition, so what’s more RB2 than TF2 characters hamming it up? Makes me wish we’d had a keg at our own celebration.

Do the Wondermark Dance!

1. Note the arrival of a package bearing the return address of “Wondermark.com.”
2. Jump up and down with glee.
3. Plod up stairs with package and sundry less-important items.
4. Tear open package with hands, vestigial prehensile tail, foreceps, whatever’s handy.
5. Marvel at quality of ill-gotten tome, resplendent with silver gilt and rich layouts.
6. Grin absurdly at the sketch provided by the author at his own behest, as well as supplemental “The Revolution Will Not Be Telegraphed” sticker. Affix sticker to laptop, gym locker or muzzle of small yappy dog.
7. Clutch book to chest; hug. (Warning: Several cartoon hearts may exude from general bodily vicinity. This is normal.)

A winner is me!

Remember the delightfully sycophantic Wondermark post I made a few weeks ago? Despite other people’s best efforts, I have apparently won myself a Wondermark book. (I interject “apparently” because I received no confirming email or backup source, and am expecting a rescindance at any moment. Just kidding. Kinda.) You know what? I didn’t even check out the book before entering the contest, because I knew it would spectacular no matter what. I can’t wait for USPS to hurl it haphazardly onto my snow-drenched doorstep! Huzzah!

Detour

So I was reading Penny Arcade today, and a funny thing happened. I suddenly became an expert on the ECA! It was the damnedest thing. As such, I drew a (really, really, really crappy) strip about it.

Put down the Paul McCartney and no one gets hurt

Since time has tipped inexorably into the month of December (according to the Georgians), I thought it appropriate to bring up this Wondermark strip.  Let it be said, however, that I’ve gone into three different establishments today, and none of them were adhering to the law.  For that, I thank them.
