          So then what does that make Ben 10: Omniverse? Series 1.5?

          Also, Alien Force/Ultimate Alien weren’t that bad.

            Omniverse is series “Fuck this shit, we’re beating a dead horse.”
            Alien Force was acceptable. Ultimate Alien? Pushing it.
            Ominiverse: fricking lego monster, shittier animation, and …ugh
            it hurts to think about it.

              I actually like Alien Force better than the original series. Ultimate Alien was stupid. I never even watched omniverse, I switched it off the minute I saw the animation.

                I like the first okay, the second best, and got so disgusted by Ultimate Alien I never watched more than two episodes.

                …Am I really debating about this online with people who are probably older than me? Tsk tsk oh well.

        Honestly, Ben and Gwen were annoying in the first series. They got a maturity upgrade afterward, though Gwen matured further than Ben.

        The problem with Ultimate Alien, is Ben didn’t utilize the new forms as well as he could have. Terraspin is immune to magic, but he NEVER used it against a magic opponent, i.e. Atwecha (spelling?). The ending was also rushed.

        Omniverse isn’t that bad, the art just takes getting used to. I still hate granpa’s eyes and the fact that Gwen dresses like a kid again. And it’s obvious that Ben regressed in maturity.

          Oh! Good I’m not the only who noticed the Maturity reversion. Though I’d go farther and say it happened in every series after the First one. Though Alien Force and Ultimate Alien got him back on track faster. Omniverse best fix that soon. I mean they already flash back to when he was 10, don’t need to make him act 10 again even though he’s 16 (or is he 17?)

      His chest must be puffed out and he must comb his frock in a detailed message to other males that he has successfully mated. Normally, this would induce stronger breeding urges, however young Daniel’s fine frock is dwarfed by both the size and sheer craft displayed by his neighboring friend, Joe-sepher.

              Are you asking how the author of the webcomic could possibly know whether something has happened to one of the characters of that webcomic?

              I mean, he could have not decided yet, but that’s not really the same thing, and “I hope” still doesn’t seem to fit.

      I firmly believe that one of the pouches in her utility belt contains yellow & blue Amazi-condoms, with a mask pattern round the tip. I’m not sure whether they have an attached cape as part of the latex, or whether this is a detachable “novelty” feature.

      April 25, 2013 at 6:47 am | #

      (Just because this post is needlessly aggressive, I should mention at the start, in case of moderation, that one should check the context first).
      Option a)
      Why is it so hard to write ‘damn it’ as two words? ‘Dammit’ is only useful for indicating the way in which it’s spoken, which is irrelevant unless you’re writing a work of fiction. There’s no excuse for shortening it in an online context, unless you’re writing online fiction.
      Option b)
      ‘Internet’? Since when does the internet get a capital letter, particularly when it’s used as an adjective?
      Option c)
      Why do you need to get into an internet fight at all? Shouldn’t we all be trying to create a little more peace in the world?
      Option d)
      YO DONT NEED A ReASON TO GET INTO AN iNTERNET FIgHT!!!!1! U JUST NEED SOMEOnE TO BE REALLY IRRITATING AND TYPE IN ALL CAPS!!!! PREFERABLY WITH INTENTOINAL ERRORS!!!1!

    Lol, Danny looks just a tad happy. But I can’t help but wonder exactly how much drama an eventual secret identity reveal is going to bring. Take your own advice to Ethan, Amber! Take it!

    In other news, I… don’t get the progression of thoughts in this strip. OK, Ethan is awkward and introduces himself as ‘guy who liked your hair’. Danny says nothing hair related. Ethan becomes self-conscious about his hair? Was he honestly expecting a hair based compliment there?*perplexed*

        Well, yes, I’m not questioning that at all. My question is why is he suddenly self-conscious about his hair? (Which is what panel #4 is portraying, I assume and which then leads to Mike’s always timely comment about his hairstyle)?

        If reason for self-consciousness is not something that was said, and it wasn’t something that failed to be said, then what is it?

          Him making the comment, then running a hand through his own hair probably led to him rethinking his look or something along those lines. It seemed like a pretty natural progression to me.

          Actually he was running his hand through his hair and it got stuck, and then the watermelon started digesting it. If this happened to you you’d look consternated too.

      I think that Ethan was fishing for grooming tips. girls do that, why not gay guys? He’s thinking he wants to change his look and is looking for options.

                Truth be told, I don’t spend more than five minutes on my hair each morning, even shoulder long as it is. Never go out with what I woke up with either though.

    Has anyone played Bioshock Infinite and noticed how some key portions of the plot mirror elements of Jason’s backstory in It’s Walky? I’m pretty sure the alley scene with the portal (near the end) was lifted directly out of Willis’ work. Willis, you’re mainstream!

    Hey guys hey guys
    Listen to my story!
    Guess what happened last night?
    Guess guess what happened last night?

    I just done the tango!
    The glorious tango! the legendary tango!
    With the most beautiful lady!
    I worship and adore!

    (Chorus)
    Horizontal tango!
    Horizontal tango!
    The most glorious tango of all!
    Because it takes two to Tango!
    (x2)

    The night was ended
    Gloriously I say
    Not a premature you-know-what
    With the best laaaaaaady!

    I just finished an archive binge. Assuming the only time skip was when Walky got his Pajama Jeans, that would place today being the third Wednesday of the school year. But since some people were getting flu shots, I’m thinking that may be wrong.
