4.90

Dude seriously walks offscreen, which turns out to be straight into a wall. Where does he go? Am I the only one who ever noticed this. Yes it DOES matter.

Hallo everybody. How are you faring? I'm alright, just about managing to keep on schedule.

Atty's hair seriously needs a cut IMO. I might hafta work something out. I actually thought he looked pretty cute in panel 1, until my sis asked me why he was looking like Jedward.

Farewell, creepy guy... Hello Gym.

See y'all soon.

Of course, he had to try it again. Well, good luck Atty! Let's hope DT spontaneously learns Metal Claw. Also, don't cut Atty's hair! Who cares WHO he looks like, WHAT he looks like is Awesomeness.

I keep hearing that little jingle that plays when that guy drags you around.

Reply Djoing, 17 Feb 2012 07:21 pm

"where did he go"

Valid question.

Reply Metalicar67, 17 Feb 2012 07:22 pm

@Z2: Aw, no, he won't need that. I beat Brock with just Charmander and Pikachu in Red version, and there's no Metal Claw there.

George in the 7th panel:3. . .2. . .1. . .

I think Atty looks cute with his current hairstyle and anyway, his hair isn't even all that long.

Reply Jack (Guest), 17 Feb 2012 07:37 pm

You're not the only one who noticed. Drove me mad as a kid.

Reply yoyoilluser, 17 Feb 2012 07:57 pm

No, no, no, no, don't cut his hair! I absolutely love his hairstyle!

Creepy guy is just hilarious, I wonder if anyone has ever challenged him to a battle? Perhaps he's Brock's biggest fan?

Reply yoyoilluser, 17 Feb 2012 07:58 pm

@Metalicar67: I totally understand, I had Charmander, Pikachu and a Pidgey when I took down Brock!

"Where did he go?" Simple answer to that question!

HE'S A GHOST!!! DX

LMAO He brings him back XD

Last 3 panels are just great! XD I love it

Reply Kittogo Nashumi, 17 Feb 2012 09:04 pm

Yeah, i tried to cheat past that by using the 'walk-anywhere' code... The guy still kidnapped me... And then crashed my game.

Reply Treason, 17 Feb 2012 09:40 pm

@Djoing: We know where he went, what I'm trying to figure out is how he cleared that giant fence.

Reply Zero_Artist, 17 Feb 2012 09:42 pm

You should totally make a joke for brock being the only black guy in the kanto region(maybe even world?)

Reply Asj, 17 Feb 2012 09:59 pm

I like Atty's hair... (although, I like long hair on almost everyone, so I guess it doesn't mean much)
Hmm... Interesting how strange that guy is. It works in videogames, but real li- a comic is different.
(Atty sure doesn't get out much, if he finds people disappearing into walls strange, it seems)
Also, Atty seems to have found out two things - that the guy's still around that wall (at least I think that's what Atty was trying to find out), and that he'll keep pulling him back when trying to leave.

Reply pat15, 17 Feb 2012 10:26 pm

I just think of him as one of Brock's dead ancestors trying to get as many challengers to fight against him, so the gym would become more prestigious or some shit

Reply ToxicBreeze, 17 Feb 2012 10:55 pm

everything about this page is entirely too true
i always wondered how he walked through that wall..
so many memories x'D

also please don't cut Atty's hair D:
it's beautiful ;;

Reply Aridnere, 17 Feb 2012 11:02 pm

I really like this comic...

I just... wish George would stop looking like a f*cking 5 year old boy, so she could be a little less anoying!!

... I mean... She could at least get Atty's name right, so she could stop calling him "Brent" all the time like a retarded!!

Hahahaha besides that, I really like this comic!

Sorry if this comment is a little mispelled, my english isn't very good.

Reply Minteh, 17 Feb 2012 11:15 pm

the best part about this page is that if you click next, it's almost like you're reading a new page. continuous loop!

I tried almost everything to get around that guy, except of course fight the gym.

Also my hairs' way longer.He doesn't need a haircut.

Reply rainfish, 18 Feb 2012 02:10 am

Don't cut his hair I like iiiit!

Reply Inuzuka, 18 Feb 2012 02:12 am

Hahaha, I love the last panel, and Minteh is right, this whole page works pretty well as a loop :)

Reply DT_Fan (Guest), 18 Feb 2012 02:33 am

There should totally be a looped animation of this page :P It'd be so funny. Also, I think panel 3 is missing some DT... Though you can blame it on the distance.

Reply sacridshadow (Guest), 18 Feb 2012 02:42 am

I always noticed when characters would walk out of screen. I could run after them, but they're just gone. (Hiding in bushes?)

The way I see it, Atty starts heading to the door and the guy drags him back. Now, I know he was just testing the system, but seriously, he's walkingthe right direction. Literally.

Reply Hurricane_Scrambles (Guest), 18 Feb 2012 03:02 am

"Sooo, Brent..." ...if I didn't know better, I'd say she's giving Atty the bedroom eyes. Might just be the shade. I guess I can't rule it out entirely though, considering she seems to have spontaneously developed deviousness. Who knows what else she hides?

Reply Lord Enigma, 18 Feb 2012 06:05 am

This problem can easily solved through violence. Lots of violence.

Reply interspark, 18 Feb 2012 07:32 am

Hahaha, where did he go? he just walked towards a wall! XD also, atty's haor looks sexy pushed back

Hahaha I tried so hard to get past that guy without the badge! Mostly so I could go train with tougher pokemon. Most frustrating thing in the world, I feel his pain. XD

Reply shadowrider7, 18 Feb 2012 08:34 am

I like Atty's hair like that, though. :)

Reply NekoKira, 18 Feb 2012 08:52 am

Who is this Jedward person and why are they copying Atty?
I love his long hair. It'd suck if you cut it. Please don't. Simple alternative: Kill Jedward. :(

@Aridnere: He told her that his name is 'Brent'. She is not being stupid, she just doesn't know his real first name.

Second to last panel:
Was she... Was George TEXTING that guy to tell him to grab Brent!?

Reply RinseAndRepeat, 18 Feb 2012 04:52 pm

Feeling kinda bamf for knowing who Jedward is. (Edit: being American and all...)
When they head-bang towards each other in Eurovision's "Lipstick," their hair is just... defying the laws of physics XD
But we all love Atty's hair just the way it is! D:

Reply cooltime17, 18 Feb 2012 04:58 pm

I just assumed she was waving to his return from being stopped by that awesomely creepy guy.

Also, wonder if peoples could sneak past him while he's dragging some innocent person to the Gym since he's not blocking the way at the time.

Reply Sappire (Guest), 19 Feb 2012 10:46 am

I... I loved that jingle. ;A;
I actually had that guy drag me around a couple of times just so I could hear it.
Though I do remember trying valiantly to repeatedly leave and see if eventually the guy would stop pulling me back to the gym.
Also, taking on Brock with only a Charmander. Ah, memories.
It took me forever (and a lot of blackouts) to realize you could catch other Pokemon.

Reply Rachael (Guest), 19 Feb 2012 01:30 pm

If you have to give him a haircut, you should do it in the middle of a battle. I can SO see him in a fight with a grass pokemon and it uses razor leaf or some cutting move like that and he ducks and comes up with half of his hair sheared off. xD

Reply Guest, 19 Feb 2012 02:56 pm

Oh, Atty, how many times do you need to be dragged back for you to learn??

@Aridnere: she calls him "Brent" because that was the name Atty gave to her. She doesn't know that Atty's real name is "Atticus"

Back on tracks (sorta, kinda, maybe):
I wonder how many times Atticus will try to get past before he gets the message?
If it were me I would just keep trying over and over and over again. I actually did that once.

Reply mosama, 20 Feb 2012 12:15 pm

I kept pressing the 'next' button to get to the next page- and it was like a never ending loop of this 1 page. And it makes perfect sense. You should just upload this exact page like 5 more times. Where it ends- it picks up perfectly right from the beginning.

Reply DontMessWithTheGenomes, 20 Feb 2012 03:42 pm

Or at least until I figured out there *are* cheats that allow you to do that. Maybe he's using one?
