Now THIS was a fun page to do xD Yes I know Sandslashes could beat a Charmander in seconds and it's probably just toying with him, but god damn it, let me enjoy my overdramatic panels for the time being.

Oh, and add sand in his hair to the increasing list of things I have to remember to draw on Atty with each page. ... Okay I'll admit, I love doing that kinda thing to characters lol. If something mucky happens to one of them, they're gunna have to stick with it for longer than a page.

In the last panel I was initially planning on making their jumbled mess of a fight one of those typical cartoon 'dust clouds' that hides everything, but in the end decided that would be the lazy option.

See y'all soon.

Lol, even Atty was like, "Whoa... okay, then, DragonThing... uhh... scratch it!"

XDDD
I love these, man! So much!

DT and Serial Slasher appear to be snuggling in that last panel xD it's funny and cute (and sexy :B). Loving the expressions and close-ups on this page. Really like the fourth panel, too. Nice pose and details. Go DT!
Also, can't really tell who's the one yelling "Scratch it!", though I'm guessing it's Elle, since Atty doesn't seem to be in the mood for exclamatory marks.

Injuries that last more than a page!? WHAT MADNESS IS THIS!?

That was an oddly short conversation about this being allowed. Much less kicking him out than expected. Unless it's just that Prof Oak's to insane to telepathically appear to trainers and nobody else has figured out how to tell them not to do stuff.

D is like...a Charmander prodigy or something.

Reply Metalicar67, 01 Jun 2012 08:36 pm

Time Warp I just had a flashback to when I first discovered this comic (which is how I found Smackjeeves), and where it was then, and how long it's been. The most recent page was when Oak "broke" and was blabbing on, they has just got their Pokemon, and it was a rare color page... man, how time flies! I am SO glad this comic is still going strong. So many just died out of no where.
Edit: Just checked, that was over 3 years ago O_o

I think Atty's attitude is rubbing off on Dragonthing XD

@Maiumaora: XD lol yeah what they said!

Reply Merrsharr, 02 Jun 2012 02:09 am

NOW he's actually cheating...
If he had sent out the ugly mouse it would count as recalling, but just helping it dodge is interfering with the fight... *shrug* Atty's cheating all the time anyway.

GET HIM DT!!!

Reply KirtiMiko, 02 Jun 2012 01:00 pm

Before the curlywurly incident I remember predicting that Atticus was going to end up being irritable and people hating with everyone except his Dragon Thing. I think this page definitely shows that those two have that kind of a rapport now.

An amazing 2 days So I was on 4chan at around 6pm (-6 GMT central time) and I saw that they had a forum to check out the new Super Effective comic on VG cats and person said to check Moképon out, and I started at 8pm - 11pm and today at 10am - 3pm and all I got to say is this has made me laugh more in 8 hours than Super Effective has in 7 months since their last update. Great job and I'll be sure to come back too see Atticus & Dragon Thing :DDD

Reply jolt99 (Guest), 03 Jun 2012 06:05 am

It looks like DT is now inside of sandslash's effective 'range' i.e. it's hard to stab/slash, when DT is so close to you. However, DT could easily point blank burn sandslash, maybe this fight won't be that imbalanced. Dt could at least cause some damage before presumably being KO'd. Because you know, we all really want to see that pikachu, even if it is useless at this stage.

Reply Ozimul (Guest), 03 Jun 2012 03:59 pm

I love that their expressions match after the sand hits.

Ever since DT survived a salvo of attacks from a massive feraligatr I've been wondering what kind of monstrous stats he must have.

Best This is by far the best Pokemon/nuzlocke/whatever comic I have seen. The artwork is superb (and adorable), the story line is excellent, and the character interaction, especially, is compelling. I'd by a book, no question

The last panel looks like something from Predator, when the predator slashes a guy in half. Sad I'm saying this in an inappropriate version of a game for six-year-olds. Actually, come to think of it, not really.
