More Talk of Comics

[Almanzo]

I just think I like Marvel Starlin better...all that Infinity bullcrap, the original death of Mar-Vell, even the great Quasar series in the early nineties.

Man you know like that part of the Wire where McNulty goes to the FBI profilers on his serial killer, and they give him a picture of himself, I've kind of felt like that from a couple of Onstad's Roast Beef strips (roast beef strips!  yum!)  Then I get all, 'man why you even got to say that, so what if a man has to gaze out his peephole 23 minutes before he gets the courage up to leave the apartment why you tellin a man's secr I mean ahahah, that Roast Beef.  I wonder what kind of trouble he's going to get himself in next.

Heather thought the Roast Beef decision making flowchart strip was so apropos she bought me a framed copy which is my apartment's sole decoration.

I never said I'd be great I mean I never even said I'd be capable of reading the label of a shampoo bottle without wondering which one of us would die first.

i'm sorry i didn't pay attention to the movie and kept reaching back and feeling my kidneys

[Good Intentions]

In all honesty, this strip is pretty much a perfect description of what being depressed means.

I'm Sorry I Said "Ta-Da!" When I Jumped Out Of The Shower After Whining About Having An Embolism All Day I Know I'm A Rollercoaster.

http://achewood.com/index.php?date=10222002 I had this on my door for awhile. I always have the urge to say godDAMMIT what am I going to do about my problems when i'm being whiny.

agreed.

the "WHAT THE HELL PEOPLE" t-shirt is amazing. i believe onstad sells those in his online store. i've considered buying one.

[citrus]

i'm sorry that i played it huffy on the phone

it's just that society did my nerves up wretched

[elpollodiablo]

I just reread the entire Great Outdoor Fight sequence, and man... Best webcomic ever, one of the best comics ever. Onstad stumbles occasionally, or just doesn't quite bring the funny every strip, but I love it as a text that's a complete world unto itself. Very character driven, genuinely innovative and creative stuff.

I dunno why I feel the need to sing Achewood's praises in here, really, but there it is.

[Andrew_TSKS]

that's the storyline that's either coming out or just came out in book form. i may buy it. considering doing so.

[Greg Nog]

Wasn't there some rumor about it possibly being turned into a film or something?

[Andrew_TSKS]

dogg let's go eat dishes with chorizo when our ladies ain't around

we all know ladies hell of mentally file chorizo-based meals away to use against us when we're fatter

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT

[citrus]

i know i keep bringing this thread back up every time there is a new achewood but i can't believe how great this story arc is and i should stop posting about it before you all realize that i am the main lunatic in this land

cop cars all pulling up on my lawn

agreed.

Along the same lines, a friend of mine calls me "Nice Pete" on a regular basis.  His blog post from yesterday is maybe the closest yet that the Greg / Nice Pete venn diagram has come to just being a big circle.

[Andrew_TSKS]

that makes sense to me--i can totally imagine you coming home from quizno's and drawing up a profile of the guy who started the family business in 1909.

[Greg Nog]

I asked the female for a Bacon Chipotle Club, and I agreed to the larger size (one foot). It was served open-faced, and I allowed for a squirt of pink-colored "chili" mayonnaise. I am glad that I did. The sandwich bites came alive and sang once inside my lips. I ate and ate, the pleasure of each mouthful growing like a fire inside me.

[Andrew_TSKS]

I.. how in hell do you know the score man what in the hell?!

Let's go. We'll talk in Airwolf.

EDIT: god this is one of my favorite achewood strips yet.

Hm maybe finally get some medical insurance

I mean I don't want to seem all cocky and falutin so maybe just a real basic plan where like if I die they put me in a coffin

[Mike24]

yeah that is a great one.

my favourite line from it is "you existed in an area and nobody did moisture-style touches on your body"

[elpollodiablo]

Special Achewood for all of you metal people today

[jebreject]

I guess one of these days I should try reading Achewood huh

[Greg Nog]

Yes, you should.  This is my favorite single strip:

"Asleep Style"
