Deanxietized - Deanxietized

True story: I was working the pledge drive for a PBS station (because I'm a viewer, like you) during the local art auction last year and had to field calls from old women demanding to know why the Hell (direct quote) Lawrence Welk wasn't on. Because it was something they waited all week for. My takeaway from this was a new appreciation for "hope I die before I get old."

On the other hand, if Welk had been the star of a Hanna-Barbara mystery show, I would watch the crap out of it just for the accent.

Lawrence Welk comics. Let me repeat that: Lawrence. Welk. Comics.

And then I found this.

I admire its purity.

Before Gears, Before Unreal, There Was ZZT

The following is an excerpt from ZZT, Anna Anthropy's upcoming book about Epic boss Tim Sweeney's classic game creation system.

I'm looking forward to this. I used to love ZZT, even on the old monochrome Toshiba T-1000 laptop I used to lug around as a kid.

The depiction of Dr. Wily here says less "megalomaniacal robot-building mad scientist" and more "Old World existentialist philosopher." I could go for that.

The lesser reviled but still bizarre European cover of Mega Man on the NES. Closer to the actual character, but still a lot of liberties taken. Massive size for this art too!

Happy anniversary Comics Curmudgeon!

(I always hear the Price Is Right theme whenever I see this panel.)

I finally learned how to make GIFs, which is great because it allows me to eloquently illustrate my reaction to ads trying to convince me that Hot Pockets are gourmet food.

Now I love this game more than ever.

Ice Hockey - Famicom Disk System (1988, Nintendo)

I hear Patrick Warburton as Lucifer. In the comic, I mean. "Beelzebub, you juicy idiot!" It's like Puddy greeting George.

And it should be someone like Chris Latta doing Cobra Commander as Beelzebub.

TUMBLR FRIENDS: Those last two pages might look icky cus I had to stitch them together for this update due to the 10 page limit. Just view the image by itself in a new tab and you will see it in its good glory. Or go to the main site and read it! whichever, the power is yours.

I said two more updates, but to hell with it, this is the rest of the GQ part 5 right now! ALL OF IT! That was the end of that part. Next time we visit GQ we will finish this story. UNTIL THEN, I’m going to take a break! Just for next week. Kool Off a bit, then come back with some jokes and one-offs the next week after that on the 28th. Just askin for a week! And don’t forget the good shit over at the store. Thank you!!

And upon seeing this I will spend the rest of my life collapsing into hysterical giggles at any appearance of Michael Bay's toitles.

Upon seeing the design, the first thought that came to mind was how terrifying it was. The second thought was that he had some serious dick sucking lips.
