New game! BOLTED 
DAMN IT
SEE HOW ANGRY THAT BIRD IS NOW
lololololol
I see what you did there.
But the birds! What about the birds?!
The birds and the bees. :-p
The birds and the gay bees. ;o
I think some pigs annoyed them.
So they’ve slept together in this reality, too?
That’s a pretty sweet universal constant.
Yeah, it’s good to see some things never change, like their doing of the tainted tango, or mike’s assholery, or Walky’s….Walkyness
Words cannot explain how happy their relations make me.
Ah, so they still have done the dirty dance as part of their back stories?
I think I like this Mike a little more. He’s less overtly violent and more subtly damaging. He’s really good at getting under people’s skin.
He got under your mom’s skin, for a nickel
He paid too much.
But the violence is still there.
Guess a more realistic setting limits his options. Probably doesn’t hurt that he doesn’t have superhuman capabilities too. It’s easier to pick on people when you have the muscle to back it up.
Mike might not have abductee powers in this universe, but he still has the super powerful ability to be an asshole
Did being surrounded by people of equal -or greater- physical prowess ever slow abductee Mike down?
I dunno, Mike is pretty masterful with his subtle barbs in the other universe too.
BWAHAHA
I want that kind of Prom.
nothing says high school memories than bitter recriminations and awkward pauses…not for me anyway
I wonder. If the two universes met up, how surprised would their counterparts be at how similar their worlds seem?
Mike wouldn’t be surprised. He’s jsut join other-Mike in killing everybody.
After sleeping with their moms.
See, people think I don’t have an avatar, or my avatar glitched into that square you see.
They’re wrong.
I have an avatar. It’s a picture of Mike’s soul.
No way, it’s far too big.
You can’t see its real size. The darkness fills all available space.
I don’t know, I’d imagine more of a Hylander style fight scene.
THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!
Made me think of The One, that Jet Li movie. A fight amongst Mike’s across the multiverse until there is only one.
The two Walkys would go get some mcnuggets, the two Joyces might go catatonic ‘cuz there’s no alternate universes in the bible, and the two Joes would team up and start joeing everything with a pulse.
Nahhh, Walkyverse Joyce would try to get DoA-Joyce to lighten up, and DoA-Joyce would pull a gun and blow her brains out.
Pretty much. I bet the DoA Joyce would even …. wipe her mind!… if she could.
i see what you did there
DAMN YOU, WILLIS!
oh wait, this isn’t a weekend, so we’ll see the story soon. hah.
And watch as Willis does not bring this up again for months.
Then I can repost my comment!
mike makes prom unforgettable
You can only play Angry Birds by holding the iPhone/iTouch/whatever horizontally. Amber is holding hers vertically.
I’M SORRY I HAD TO POINT IT OUT I COULDN’T STOP MYSELF
Expert Mode
Like cats, gamers like to make their games interesting.
I know this because I’ve seen both go out of their way to make otherwise simple tasks complicated (however, the cat’s thought process made more sense).
I thought she might have meant twitter… but that’s too social ;P
So wait, did Amber sleep with Mike, or Ethan? I think Mike.
Why can’t it be both?
I think the point is “both. At once. For a nickel.”
It was an extremely awkward prom.
But…she was saying he didn’t know. How could she slept with Ethan without him knowing?
He didn’t yet know that he was gay before that.
I think.
I read it as she slept with Mike, and Ethan didn’t know. Mike wasn’t supposed to tell yet.
If she slept with Ethan, and Mike wasn’t supposed to know, that would mean Ethan told, and I think his reaction would be stronger in the last panel.
He was asleep for it?
I’m getting the impression that Ethan slept with Amber while thinking of Mike…
It had to be Ethan because Mike was busy with your mom that night.
Everybody at once.
Prom was kinda like Granfaloon/Legion from Castlevania.
That… That made my day. Here’s a nickel, go buy someone’s mom.
I like DoA Mike even better than Original Recipe. He reminds me of the people I hang out with.
So, did they both wake up next to Mike in this reality, too?
None of them have given off the impression of being in a relationship though (atleast to me). Maybe a now-defunct relationship, or Mike is a voyeur, and Amber keeps secrets.
Or the three enjoy a “friends with benefits” relationship.
Is it sad I really hope this is the case? I just like those relationships in fiction a ridiculous amount.
Mike Warner, bringer of uncomfortable truths, doer of moms everywhere! kneel before his mighty powers of assholery!
Your mom kneeled before Mike for a nickel.
(Sorry, I couldn’t help myself.)
well played my friend, well played, hoisted with my own petard
Mike has your mom hoist his petard for a nickel every night…yeah for 7 month old comments!
ah this is more like it. yesterdays mike was far too civil
I think DoA Amber and Ethan have thicker skin than SP! Amber and Ethan, DoA Mike is occasionally civil because a crucial element of assholery is timing: give them enough time to get up so you can knock them down again. (but nut them while they’re down first.)
Roofies? More like “floories”.
Oh, the joys of prom…
Poor Amber… D: I can see why she likes Ethan, but… >///>;; If hes gay, hes gay, there’s really nothing anyone can do about it… (or should, for that matter s: )
You know, i just noticed that my college semester is on the way out, but theirs is just getting started, i don’t think they’ve made it past wednesday have they? THOSE POOR BASTARDS!
I know right? By the time my first year of college is done they won’t have even finished they’re first week. It’s going to be a long four years…
So did the three of them grow up together in this universe? And at what point exactly did Ethan come out as gay? Immediately after prom in the hotel room or at a later point?
He might not be gay in this universe for all we know
I’m pretty sure it was stated somewhere that Ethan came out sometime in High School.
Willis said he came out in High School.
Willis came out in high school?
Ummm… yeah, actually we do know he’s gay, Calenderman. His character bio states explicitly that he’s gay. Furthermore, what Amber was shout about “he didn’t know yet” is an obvious reference to the fact he was gay but that he hadn’t realized it at the time of Prom.
oh, well my bad
I thought it was that Amber had slept with Mike, and had not told Ethan [which is a big deal because… well, because Mike].
This comic always makes so much more sense to a noob like me after I’ve read the comments. Also, with his penis?
heh heh heh
Ah, classic Mike.
I am so going to need to hear the rest of this story.
The most awkward 30 seconds of their lives followed by Mike attempting to give her a dime while she ignored him for Angry Birds.
Amber and Ethan went to prom. And shortly thereafter had sex in a hotel room. And a short while after *that* (after prom, before high school graduation) Ethan came out as gay. Mike is implying that while Amber was doing her best, Ethan was thinking of England (specifically those manly men in the tall fuzzy hats).
Alright, that one deserves an internet. Never thought of “think of England” like that.
Isn’t prom normally pretty towards the end of highschool? If so, seems as if Ethan would have had less time to come out of the closet about it than I would have thought, if she indeed slept with Ethan. As is, I was thinking more it meant she had slept with Mike in high school…could also be that Ethan was drugged, drunk, or something else that would make him forget the act he was in, but I sort of doubt they did the monster mash, both consensually.
But how would Mike know?
Obviously I don’t know how their fictional high school worked, but my real world high school hosted two proms annually: one for juniors, and one for seniors. So while it might’ve been toward the end of the school year for them, it might not’ve been toward the end of school.
With further reading after much more awakeness, I realize it’s definitely Ethan she slept with, buuuut..
Regarding the proms, I know my school had something called a semi-formal which sounds like the equivalent of your earlier prom. It wasn’t as big as prom here, though, and wasn’t ever called it. But, my high school may not be the norm, and they may have been in a place they always called it prom. We were a pretty small and poor public school.
It seems that Amber knew, and didn’t mind that Ethan didn’t know. Note that she can’t bring herself to say “we didn’t know”.
In truth, Mike is the champion of good in the world. He’s a paladin in the DND sense. He wields any weapon he can to strike at the evil in the world. Amber took advantage of Ethan’s ignorance, and Mike’s punishing her for it here.
I am beginning to love DoA Mike. He just sits there in the background looking sullen for a while and then BAM. Destroys your life with one sentence.
It’s the perfect life.
Nonono. This is parallel to Amber and Ethan doing the horizontal hoedown in Shortpacked. Ethan didn’t know he was gay yet– like in Shortpacked– but was distracted during the act.
This is why when Amber retorts that Ethan tries to do two things at once, Mike mentions Ethan did this during their lovemaking, and Amber justifies this by saying “he didn’t know yet.”
You know mike is more friendly because in this reality he didnt saw Dina die before his eyes… oh crap, now is when the flame wars begin right?
No flames, but Mike was pretty much the same asshole before Dina died. The lack of repeated alien examinations probably improved his attitude though.
I`ve only seen mike show any emotion two times, when Dina hug him and when Dina died, and when Amber punched him (but I dont remember well). And you know that Mike got into the super happy team, etc.
And he insulted a Martian while that thing was tentacle raping him, thats an improvement
It’s gonna be really awful when somehow she manages to blow up in front of him on the other side of a window in this universe too.
My entire high school time is best left forgotten as it was a horrific mix of terror and sadness.
Mike would have probably loved it.
Went stag my junior year Prom, had my date called a harlot by half the girls at my senior year just because I had an actual date and they couldn’t believe it.
Ah, the memories.
From the way she says it, it makes one wonder… Does she turn Ethan gay in every universe? Instant Gay, Just Add Amber!
