Anyone else get Gomez vibes from Gerard?

ha ha so hey I spent the last three full days or so sitting in a tattoo chair polishing off my left sleeve, so this is a bit of a collab between me and my bro Maya of Doctor Voluptua fame and everybodysuperhappy who is my loving Toronto wife. A nicer version will be up tomorrow when she does her own thing with the inking, but I asked her at like 10pm if she wanted to make something for the site while I was indisposed and then snatched it and used my Skills Of A Board Artist to crank out an inked version in half an hour.
Oh so that’s who the moustache guy was. Saw in one comic where Little Pharah was shooting everyone… This must be kinda sad for Amelie all things considered…
Yeah, I saw that comic as well. I thought that was supposed to be Genji since I couldn’t figure anyone else.
Yeah, there’s a Widowmaker spray from the Uprising event that shows him so now people have a canon reference to work with
(also that spray is their wedding pic so it’s about as sadcute as this comic)
Which Pharah comic is that?
“A quelle heure est la fête, chéri ?”*
Imagine the Addams family as crazy assassins with cool gadgets and a spider theme …
oh huh. That pair of actors… would make a fitting Addams family.
Hi there, long time french fan :) just posting to say that it’s “heure” not “huere”, your french is pretty spot on though !
Adams Family – by Alan Moore (Extended Director’s Edition)
During the 50 Shades of Grey polemics, I kept thinking that Gomez/Morticia is the actual model of a great BDSM couple—right here under our noses in the PG-13 section the whole time.
They were fairly literal about Gomez and Morticia having BDSM proclivities in the first film with Raul Julia and Angelica Huston. During the torture sequence she compliments Tully on his technique and then when Gomez unties her during the rescue he’s muttering about all the things they were doing and she makes a comment about later.
“Knives! Chains! Red-hot pokers!”
“Later, my dearest.”

“To Pleasure!”
“To Pain!”
“Tonight…”
There’s also the fact that when the original was airing, most other TV married couples didn’t act like they were couples. They bickered and slept in separate beds and made it seem like they were just roommates.
Not Morticia and Gomez. The two of them were still madly in love with each other, even after having two children and raising them well by the standards of their culture.
That’s the beauty of the Adams’ Family. They are a genuine “perfect family”. Yet, nowhere close to the “average family”.
They’re kinky, but that’s not all there is to the relationship. They’re both hopelessly in love with each other, and that’s the point of their relationship. The fun stuff is all extra.
All of that collectively are why Morticia and Gomez are one of my absolute favorite pop culture couples.
I’ve got a meme that I share any time I see someone posting a Joker/Harley picture like that’s some kind of *goal.*
The quote is: “Screw Romeo and Juliet, I want a love like Gomez and Morticia!”
Agreed, and that’s my point exactly. That’s why they’re such a perfect exemplar of actual, real-world, healthy BDSM couples (/polygons). Not abusive relationships self-destructively held together with manipulative mindgames; but rather deep, passionate mutual love with extra consensual fun.
I know just enough about Overwatch for this to make me sad.
heure, not huere (or is that spelled that way to make it sound broken?)
“Did you pick these costumes just so you could so this?”
Yes. Yes he did. :-)
I need time travel so I can see Eva Green as Morticia NOW.
Absolutely one million percent canon.
Hm. I was more of Manuel Lin Miranda and Audrey Tatou, but good choice. No Mamushka , though? Although that would be more Morrison and Reyes really.
Hey, I’ll take any excuse for Coelasquid to draw Morrison without his shirt…
I’ve always said if you want true love, don’t go for Romeo and Juliet, a teenage fling that ends in a double suicide, or for the Joker and Harley, an abusive psychopath and a baaaad case of Stockholm syndrome, go for Morticia and Gomez, go for a loving, accepting couple who manage to keep the fires of passion burning strong while raising their two kids.
As a french-canadian i feel like I must point out the typo in first panel, its ‘heure’ instead of ‘huere’. Sorry, it tickles my the OCD part of my brain :)
Can the next person who comments on ‘huere’ spelling please end their sentence properly?
Sorry, just something I noticed you guys were doing wrong and thought it was ironically funny. lol

Ops, this was intended as a reply to Kevin C above. If a moderator is reading this, feel free to delete this subthread.
Please more Jared and Mr.Fish.
If you don’t want to I won’t be angry, but I really enjoy seeing Jared and Mr.Fish interact with these hyper masculine crazy people.
He just goes around and has fun, doesn’t really care about looking manly, and likes hangs with Mr.Fish.
In fact if you made a new comic just about Mr.Fish and Jared going on Pokemon adventures I would be thankful.
Okay, thanks for reading
Forgive me, I am legitimately confused – was not Doctor Voluptua Josh Lesnick’s former creation? Could you clarify the blurb a bit?
Search “Overwatch Gerard”
That’s … not the part I took issue with. I know Amelie was the kidnapped wife of Gerard and was brainwashed into being the badguy etc etc etc. That’s entirely separate from what I’m questioning. Unrelated, you see.
I was talking about where, in the blurb, the bit below the comic that the author writes, she has written about some (not to do with the comic) where it says Doctor Voluptua, which is a different comic (not this comic), which I believe was done by Josh Lesnick, but which the blurb implies was done by “Maya”.
I’m just after some clarification.
I work with Josh and have been the sole penciler/inker/colourist for the comic for years. Josh still lays out, writes and letters the pages.
Heya, Maya Nord is the artist behind the doctor, while Josh Lesnick is the writer.
Neato. Thanks!
This makes me sad. D=
I get the feeling that if Widowmaker ever breaks free she’s going to be absolutely berserk. Not just for the whole enslaving thing, but for brainwashing her into killing her husband.
Coelasquid – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ggsi4zAdFg8 your reaper strips are dubbed
Wait, you’re married? Since when?
September
Finally Caught Up. Bloody Hilarious Comic.. I particularly enjoy Canadian man, being a machismo Canadian man myself. Strangely accurate
congrats again on kicking the Big old Cancer Butt (Sorta). glad to see it didnt kill your zest for life, the universe, and everything <3
Hmm, Oscar Isaac and Eva Green? Were they the pair from the black and white TV series?
I think our family actually had a video with some episodes. I recall one where Wednesday and Pugsley were sent to public school and ended up getting upset because of story time.
“They killed him, they killed the dragon!”
“What? Who killed the dragon,. Wednesday?”
“A knight in shining armor!”
“That’s terrible!”
They ended up chewing out the representative next time he came over, mentioning the horrible story of Hansel and Gretel, two terrible children going around pushing poor old ladies into ovens.
Nah, they’re current actors. Overwatch takes place ~60 years in our future, so they’d know of movies we don’t yet have.
Oscar Isaac is known for starring in Star Wars VII as Poe Dameron, and Eva Green is also a current actress.
Love the Adams Family, but didn’t get the joke/punchline. Spent the last 20 minutes reading up on Overwatch to finally understand who these characters are.
I gotta go back and reread the other comics that had Overwatch characters in them now. Starting to feel like I possibly missed something.
@ coelasquid. Congratulations on your getting married.
Oh wait I just realized what you guys were talking about, hahaha, I’m not actually married to Maya, I just call her my Toronto wife because every time I go to the city I live with her and she makes me dinners and I buy her nice things and she tells me I’m working too hard and need to go to bed. I am married, but to a big burly Norseman in Los Angeles.
Well that sounds downright big of you
Something to remember. There’s never been a healthier family dynamic put up on TV than the Adam’s Family. Just saying.
