I bet Jared just lived off of nothing but Jiffy Pop for months

Brett Wondered why they don’t just ride Mr. Fish, but Mr. Fish goes where Mr. Fish wants to go. And he probably doesn’t go there very fast.
If you’re in the market for another awesome comic to read, check out Specimen B-28, it’s by one of my Ugly Americans Bros, Stephen Daymond. I think I pimped it out a while back, but that was years ago so there’s a substantial archive that’s built up since then! It’s some rad stuff with multicoloured alien babes and top-shelf art.
Mr. Fish looks even more vaguely annoyed than usual in that last panel.
I think it’s because of all the free floating Scowlosterone is been absorbed by Mr. Fish’s membrane like skin. Or because he doesn’t like been tied down to the roof of a, rather kickin’ looking, automobile. Choose your poison.
Incidentally, Coelasquid, the link does not work. It thinks it is an internal link and tries to access http://www.specimenb28.com/ as a subdomain.
Should be fixed, I forgot the http:// part.
So it does. Thanks!
He looks more like um… what’s that meme again? ” http://www.quickmeme.com/High-Expectations-Asian-Father/ “
And then Mr. Fish got infected and turned into a blue Milotic.
Yes. This. Everyone, Milotic _is_ the bishie Gyarados. Seriously.
Actually, Milotic is Midna.

Never understood new pokemon but that is great right there.
I haven’t understood pokemon since silver version.
Happy to hear that I am not alone XD
Hasn’t pokemon just been the same story in every iteration since red/blue? How does one understand one and not the others?
there are way different pokemon and characters or so ive been told
fail. gyarados is #130, one of the original 150
But Milotic is *not* one of the original 150.
I hereby dub this story arc ‘Life’s a Bish‘
You win.
Where oh wheeeere is the Like button? xD
Here, have my internets good sirmadam!
^^^^^^this
Or a dragonair.
This comic is so goddamn perfect.
But the Commander looks better and better as this dollface-bishonen and I am scared that I started to like him looking like that :(
His charisma is the only thing exceeding his manliness.
Meh, Jared looks cuter without peach fuzz, but I’ll never forgive Gackt for what he has done to our beloved Commander.
Haha yeah. The glasses and hair may be dumb as balls, but I love how Coela draws ‘bishie’ faces.
I agree, he doesn’t make them as frighteningly girly as many bishonen things. Like more effeminate men, but men, not women. The Commander like this reminds me of David Bowie as Jareth in Labyrinth. Which still makes him pretty manly.
No offense, since I know there’s no way for you to guess this unless you read that artist’s comments or followed her here from Deviant Art but… erm.. he’s a She.
Yeah, Coelasquid is a woman.
Just thought I’d mention.
it’s probably the cigar.
Oh my God, panel 5. It’s like me in every videogame ever. Also, I suddenly have the urge to find a Magikarp backpack.
Thanks for the awesome page update. :)
I think you mean panel 6
When i started playing pokemon i got my brother to give me a magikarp and i did the whole send in carp then switch to something else until i got gyrados. played the rest of the game with nothing but the gyrados.
Jared never did show respect for the elderly…..Shame on the youth of the present tsk tsk
Does this mean the car can now fly? Assuming Mr. Fish could be arsed to do so, of course.
Man, bishonen Commander looks hilarious smoking a cigar! it just doesn’t mix :D
I was just thinking that!!!!
He’s slowly asserting an ability to express himself and his natural surliness. Maybe you can fight it?
Nah, it’s just fit.
So they WILL ambush Gackt’s HQ! Can’t wait for the big battle!
Maybe if he smokes and drinks and consumes enough red meat, he’ll start looking grizzled again.
im surprised his bishounen lungs arent making cough that manly cigar. I cant recall a bishounen character smoking : /
Apparently Cid-7 has been living with Nomura syndrome his entire life, and from what I can recall he’s a chain-smoker (or as close as you can get with censorship), so it doesn’t totally eliminate tobacco handling ability.
You won’t believe it but some bishie characters ARE smokers. Example: Tokyo Babylon’s Seishiro Sakurazuka & X’s Subaru Sumeragi.
Is there anything Jared is good at? He seems so grossly incompetent at everything he does.
Also I am wondering what a bishi Big Daddy would look like.
Probably a merman.
Or a scuba diver.
Or some dude in a speedo.
Or aqua man.
Namor.
WHAT? Ah-Guh-Wah Mon? Does not compute.
Hahaha!!!! You made me snort!
A bishi Big Daddy is obviously a mecha.
using a magikarp as a weapon…
He can also apparently climb well and catch copious amounts of magnemite
He PARKED a SEA MONSTER in an OFFICE. Comfortably, at that. If that isn’t the greatest micromanaging of space that has ever happened in one of those, i don’t know what.
please no… that’s too terrible to consider – a Big Daddy that actually looks like a babysitter…
It would look like something from Evangelion.
he actually does alot of things that are badass, but his personality and just how he does them just makes it stupid. traveling the world with a magicarp on his back is rather badass except it was only because he missed the part about how to use pokeballs, bludgeoning enough pokemon into submission with a magicarp for it to evolve is badass.
It’s not just because he didn’t know how to use pokeballs. Jared has never expressed in interest in having nay other pokemon aside from Mr. Fish. The fact that he catches and raises pokemon without a pokeball makes him even more badass.
He’s also using Rock Climb without a using a pokémon in the seventh panel. I’m fairly certain that no other pokémon trainer in history has been able to do that.
The worst part is when you’re talking to that old man and not paying attention to what he’s talking about and then missing the end of his lecture and winding up hitting “Yes, I’d like to hear that again”.
There is no pain worse than reading “Greetings, Link! Your adventure is just beginning!” for the third time in a row because you were just button-mashing.
I hate you for putting that owl’s theme music in my head.
Hate.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbvPVoVicok
Here you go.
the worst bit is the: would you like to give 10,000k to the hospital. button mash yourself poor.
“Explain Pokke/Yukumo Points / Explain Smithing” in Monster Hunter.
SO MUCH MASHING CIRCLE
…
FUCK I PRESSED IT AGAIN
Hahaha, I do that all the time too. I would probably actualy read it if Capcom let MH be released in english.
I know it’s a little late, but is Commander’s bishonen figure a reference to Guren Lagen? Or is he just wearing the shades just because?
Well…Commander’s original outfit had goggles, so I assume that’s the “bishie” equivalent of Commander’s more manly accessory.
That damn owl trolling button mashers everytime
or mushin bashers as I just tried to write
….and my computer put this in the wrong place….damnit
+1 i lol’d
Um, I thought Mr. Fish could fly or something…
Though gyarados are flying type they are some how incapable of actually flying
It’s not that Gyarados can’t fly, it’s that the thought of a Gyarados flying out of the water to pursue it’s prey is so terrifying no media source depicts it in flight.
Yeah, and Chuck Norris can roundhouse kick the media, right? Go back to your message boards, conspiracy theorist >:[
We have already established that Chuck Norris is a poser (see: this comic). Darchias is right, the thought Gyrados being able to pursue you EVERYWHERE is just too horrifying for just about everybody…. especially Chuck Norris (see: fanart).
Can I just say that I absolutely LOVE that last panel? It’s too awesome to even begin to describe it. Good job!
Oh man. I think my favourite part of this comic is every single one of Jared’s expressions. Especially in panel 1.
I can’t help but fear that cars built in Nondescript Spacefuture are made out of explodium or something.
Over the course of half a century, we’ve gone from being able to hit a car with a wrecking ball and MAYBE needing to get a new paint job to… well… the way cars are now.
Cars are that way nowadays because of crumplezones. When the car is hit, it deforms, absorbing the kinetic energy in its deformation. This way there’s less chance of getting some horribly disabilitating injury. Yeah it’s nice having a car that can survive the apocalypse, but it’s a small sacrifice if it keeps you from getting paralyzed from the neck down.
I guess this might be going pretty far off topic as far as the comic goes, but you do know that cars today are safer because the way they “behave” in a crash right? The chassi takes up the kinetic energy affecting the car in the crash by being “demolished” or whatever and sparing the passengers of the worst of it.
Sure, crumple zones and breakaway motor mounts. Man, there is no replacement for displacement! The last real car I owned was a 1985 Ford LTD Crown Vic. Three tons! 6000 pounds! Small block V8 302! Eight body trunk! Comfortable seating for six! Four gallons to the mile! Someone rear-ended me in once while I was driving. They pancaked their safety box. Me? I drove away laughing. Not even a scrape on the bumper.
Exactly. Cars made of real steel and not some crazy ass aluminum substitute that can’t even repel bugs at 75 mph.
You know what’s funny? My old car – a 1983 Buick – would drive fine down the Interstate at full speed, and I’d get bug smears on my hood. Now, in my 2005 Accura, the damn thing shudders like a kite when the wind blows on the Interstate, and bugs leave DENTS in my hood. Motherf&&king dents, FFS.
Granted, you may have “safer” cars now, but they aren’t really worth the money you pay for them. I was fine in my 1985 Buick – even got into a head-on and never got more than bruised. You hit me head-on with your car now, I’m as good as dead.
Maybe if your steering column didn’t impale you in that old ’83. Or get T-boned. Etc. Etc.
Modern cars are made to absorb kinetic energy through reliable channels versus cars from the eighties which were designed to withstand energy, which usually resulted in unreliable crash results. Your head on may have been a lucky break, I would assume that most vehicles in similar circumstances did not fare as well.
I’ll have you know that those cars weren’t all that unsafe.
The steering column would collapse on an impact, so no impaling. The doors were reinforced. We had airbags, believe it or not, in my car.
My sister’s little Volkswagon Jetta looked like a mangled piece of tin after a head on with a F-150 truck. My car looked like it had a crushed fender and a loose bumper after I hit something that was just short of being a Mac truck. I had a bruise on my chest and slight whiplash – she had to be in traction for a week.
Seriously, all they did was take the safety of having a solid steel frame and put it into more interior features so they could save money. By putting you in a lighter frame made from less resilient materials. Even the windows in newer cars are less resilient than they were in the early 90’s (they changed to thin, poly-glass that splinters instead of shatters on impact, which is nice in an accident, but cannot repel a piece of gravel thrown up by a semi-truck).
(Hattip: I’m mostly being a pain. I love old cars, and I know they aren’t safer. I just don’t care how safe your car is supposed to be compared to other cars – if you’re a safe driver and aware of the idiots around you, then you are most likely going to be better off than being stupid in a super safe car)
What can I say, I’m still a sucker for trolling on the internet.
Me, I was mostly speaking on the merits of driving an older car NOW. Give me the 6000 pound car so I can impart some kinetic energy into the modern crumple-zone-on-wheels. That way, I’ll punch right through the flimsy-wheeled safety box and keep on moving.
I drive an 85 LTD 4 door, not a Crown Vic, but a boat regardless in its own right.
Except mine is probably ready to rust itself apart. Not sure how well the entire muffler would stay on if I got rear ended.
I drive a car made entirely of other cars. the chassi is from an odyssey
Frankenwagon.
That’s actually a pretty accurate portrayal of my car yes
Haha! I love that description, good job, man!
I would PAY to drive a Frankenwagon for the novelty of it.
I drive a Grand Marque. The Luxery version of the Vic. Now I hit a spot of black ice last year coming home from work, did two or three 360’s before I hit the ditch, and stones in it. The next day, we pulled it out with a tow truck, and the only issue was we had to wait for the snow to thaw from the wheel hubs. I didn’t even get whip lash, from it.
Hell yeah, nice ride, man! Six body trunk.
Modern cars are actually stronger – where it counts at least.
1959 Chevrolet Bel Air vs. 2009 Chevrolet Malibu crash test
They’re like honey badgers – don’t give a $#!% about what you might do to the headlights, but the passengers are gonna be safe.
Nothing makes up for being a safer driver, in all honesty.
I haven’t had an accident in 22 years.
Heh, me … I’ll just say that I’ve never hit anybody. Any accident I’ve been involved in, someone railed me. Including some jerk that t-boned my mother’s Grand Marquis when I was a kid (on my side, no less). Nary a scratch on me!
There was once where some idiot almost rear-ended me, but I saw him rush up, not slowing down. I intentionally drove onto the shoulder as quickly as I could, and he zipped past me, skidding.
Luck? Not sure, but I knew what to do to get out of his way. It was an 18 year-old kid texting on his cellphone.
Oh holy Christmas on a pogo stick. Seriously, don’t you just wanna pound people like that?!
Hey, looks like the Commander’s managing to control his face muscles again! Yippeeeee! His bishified version can keep some manliness, now!
What scares me is that Jared DOES look cuter without that so-called beard he used to have o_o
By the way, I think Mr. Fish would be so lazy that even getting into a pokéball woulld take tons of time and effort >_>
Coelasquid, you need to hurry. I’m starting to like Commander B this way…
I seriously love the last panel. Particularly since Mr. Fish’s weight actually appears to bear down on the suspension. Great detail, that.
I didn’t notice! 8(
Bad me. Bad. [/self_scolding]
Today is the first time I’m realizing that Mr. Fish didn’t actually turn into a luck dragon.
More importantly: how did he carry Mr. Fish around AFTER he evolved? o_O
My theory is that it was through sheer force of will. That, or his ridiculous luck (good AND bad) decided to give him a helping hand.
I assumed he rode Mr fish around after that
I bet Mr. Fishy would enjoy the car ride more if the car were a convertible. Also I bet he’s a Volvo Man.
I’ll bet chevy
Psh. CHEVY…
really hope they respect bridge heights…
if thbey don’t mr. Fish can probably take it
yes, but will the bridge survive?
I’m so relieved to see the Commander has a cigar. I was afraid even that might have been infected into a clove cigarette in a holder or something. *shudder*
Oh wow. Thank God that didn’t happen. I’d have died laughing.
This is the FIRST thing I thought of when I saw the cigar. Him reaching for a cigar in his jacket and finding a “Cruella-De-Vil-esque cigarette”. Has no idea they were called clove cigarettes in a holder. The More You Know!
Hahaha…not quite! You can put any kind of cigarette in a holder. A clove cigarette is just a flavored cigarette, like Djarums, usually something sweet like vanilla or cherry. They burn slower and inhaling them is not a great idea, sort of like a cigar only far more pretentious (and I say that as someone who used to smoke them).
Now you know, and you know what they say about knowing.
Haha, I had no idea. It IS half the battle, thank you!
Do you think the wind from the open windows will finally blow the shades off the Commander?
Since they are going to look like a float in a parade, should they stock up on cheap candy?
Or will Mr. Fishie just take it into his head to fly, suspending the car beneath him?
These are my questions so far after reading this hilariousness. Thanks!
I just realized that Mr. Fish probably spent months as a fish above ground. He must be have been quite the durable Pokemon even before he turned into a cuddly water dragon.
It gets worse when you realize he was found in the grass in Jared’s yard, not in the water. He may have been there for years!
I’m kinda sad that this bishi-plague-curse-whosamjit doesn’t jump species boundries.
Either that or Mr Fish has a hell of an immune system.
Probably from being outdoors so much.
I guess this is why they call them “muscle cars”.
Somewhat.
They were “muscle” cars because of their glorious V-8 engines. Their 10 mpg, but fast and powerful engines.
My little 4 cylinder engine is maybe half as manly as the one in my previous vehicle. It’s sad, really.
I just wanted to say I really adore the commander. It must take a lot of tolerance to deal with Jared’s shenanigans daily, and even keep his cool under stress. He really is a great role model.
I really hope the commander can steer well.
Random thought time, due to people talking about the possible/eventual bishofication of Mr. Fishy: He’s a female. That would explain how Mr. Fishy could be around all these Nomura Syndromed guys without any effect (unless, a gyrados is already bishi?)
Anyway, that was the thought that just popped into my head this morning. Another great comic, BTW.
That or Mr. Fish gives so little of a $h!t that he’s immune to Nomura Syndrome.
Well in the more recent pokemon games, that included differences between the male and female sprites of some pokemon, the male Gyaradoses have blue barbels, while female ones have white barbels. With that logic, Mr. Fish is a male Gyarados.
The cigar just doesn’t fit Bishie Badass.
It’s blending together two worlds that should have never been blended.
Like the words “Twilight” and “Awesome”? Those two words do not belong in the same sentence.
Twilight and best-seller shouldn’t be in the same sentence, but there you go.
But Twilight Sparkle is awesome! Rarity’s still best pony, but the rest of them are pretty cool.
But the lighting at twilight is awesome for taking photos!
(And I agree about Rarity)
Ponies are not to be discussed on such a manly comic.
and yet they’re still more manly then Jared.
Not more manly than Mr. Fish, though. Jared is just a mouthpiece.
And we all know how manly having your own mouthpiece is.
In case you forgot, Commander and Jonesey had a protracted discussion regarding the relationships in the cartoon “Jem” prior to this, on a Valentines Day comic. (Hier klicken.)
The title for that page is “Never doubt how much the father of a little girl might know about Jem, Carebears, or My Little Pony”.
Your statement is null and void.
It seems as if you have not seen the cake with garrus and one of the mlp crew.
I can’t hold anything against Jared on this one.
Have we seen Jared’s HM slave yet?
Oh man, so I just started reading Specimen B-28, and I gotta say I’m really digging it.
50’s cars are meant for pokemons.
If Jared can’t use pokeballs, how did he catch all the magnamites for Mr. Fishes power suit?????????????????????
Rope, lots and lots of rope.
Jared better be able to find that old dude again if he wants the missingno glitch
This whole comic is amazing, I’m totally digging commanders expressions and that last panel had me laughing like the dickens
I can see it now
“Commander? I think I broke the universe.”
Ok yeah some towns dissapeared and everythings turned all pixilated but I have an unlimited supply of rare candies!
(Or knowing Jared..regular candies)
Hahahahahahah*snort*hahahaha!
My first though was how will he get a Shedinja (The most machismo pokemon, rubbing “Hey, I only have 1 hp” into everyone’s face), but that’s even better.
Oh, he could experience his $500 of gumballs all over again. :p But worse.
Well now we know why Mr. fish is such a bad-ass. He hasn’t been lobotomized into an over-sized squirt gun.
This whole arc makes me want to grab a marker and draw stubble on poor Jared’s and the Commander’s faces. They look so naked without their stubble!
…Why hasn’t the Comm’nder shaved his head to look less like a sissy?
It would probably just grow right back.
I just imagined that, It don’t look that good
It’d probably be like the beard-shaving scene in that movie The Santa Clause – he’d shave it all off, towel off the shaving-cream residue, look in the mirror, and FOOMPH!
I request a page with Mr. Fish Hyper Beaming EVERYTHING in the way to Gacht.
It’s a home-made tank!
Jared is wearing the same t-shirt as he was wearing in last week’s strip. That’s got to be a first, right?
He’s been wearing the same shirt since the beginning of the arc, this is all the same day.
Shup up, you obviously don’t know how the Artist does this comic.
Hasn’t there been an arc where he changed shirts over the same day? :p
Jared is still reminding me of my childhood. I could not read when I started playing pokemon and played it by the whatever works theory. That and my bro has a freaking encylopedia like knowledge of games. an average day is like this: me playing metroid him telling me where everything ever is and how to get it. it is kind of creepy yet amazing.
and he remembers stuff from years back too.
I want to see the moustache version of Mr. Fish.
Did anyone else notice that the post from March 12th has this strip directly under it? Perhaps there was an error in an upload? I got rather confuzzled when trying to catch up.
I accidentally had an extra digit in this week’s comic’s filename, I caught it before I updated anything, but apparently it doubled up the comics on March 12th. Couldn’t figure out how to fix it short of deleting manually the jpg from the ftp.
Mr. Fish is like the Stig of the Pokemon world.
From Armed and Dangerous?
Some say that he has never lost a staring contest and his perpetual smile had been misaligned in a freak accident. All we know is, he’s called Mr. Fish!
:D
I want Jiffy Pop.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joMK1WZjP7g
Ya, the cars in the 50s pretty much were NOT made of stronger stuff.
Anything crumples under those conditions, man.
The idea was to be a safer driver. For some reason, people are even worse drivers today than 20 years ago. And I can’t figure out why (because at least now you guys have driver’s education and simulators – I had neither).
I think its a combination of more distractions and the assumption that training can take the place of experience.
We have a SHOW called Canada’s Worst Drivers. No matter what, it takes, like, 4 or 5 episodes of totaled cars before they start to realize that they ARE bad drivers.
(Off topic, I just got a telemarketer to ADMIT he was running a scam. WUT?)
Does this mean Mr. Fish is going to be in a parade?
Got’a give Coelasquid props for remembering to give Jared his stubble back for the flashback panels.
Naturally, the Commander is skilled in the manliest of the Manly Arts: Tying things to the roof of the car.
its the ultimate challenge of manliness, tying a dragon to a car from the 50s
It’s like Mr. Fish is actually using Surf!
On the road!
From now on, whenever I have to stand a long boring speech I’ll be mentally saying in my head “Press A. Press A. Press A” over and over and over again…
Mr. Fish never fails to make me laugh by the way you draw him. He just looks so unamused in that last panel which makes me laugh even harder. Exceptional work, as always!
Mr. Fish – the Grand Champion of Not Giving A Shit.
Because he has no shits to give. He so poor he doesn’t have two shits to rub together.
Now that I think about it, this makes Jareds catching of all those magnamites and magnatons a while ago much MUCH more impressive
…How does the Commander not know what a Pokeball is, and yet he knows about the old man that gives you the tutorial on how to use one?
Methinks he knows much more about Pokemon than he lets on, but is embarrassed to admit it.
He just doesn’t know what they’re called.
The Commander is probably friendly with the old man from the tutorial. The old man was probably a bad-ass manly dude from an old video game a long time ago that the Commander found placement for.
He probably used time travel when Jared got that old to put Jared in that position. For the funnies of Jared giving himself a speech he didn’t listen to.
Okay, let’s be completely fair to Jared–in a world where people use monsters to save the cost of a plane ticket and to do their rock climbing for them, he walked. In a world where monsters routinely shred the physical laws of the universe for fashion shows (oh and fighting each other too I suppose), Jared uses his as a flail. Now, I’m not the most health conscious of people, but I think walking across a continent and swinging a fish with enough force to knock animals unconscious is pretty badass.
This and eating a icing outer crust of a cake is what made Jared a stubble man. Which then he lost from rubbing himself.
Good thing there no way Mr.Fish evolving into a pretty pokemon after eating so many of them to build up an immunity.
So… you’re sayin’ they have to eat Gackt?
RotFLmAO.
I severely hope that’s the case now. And I don’t.
Gawd, I don’t know.
That made a horrible thought run through my mind.
“Gackt sauce.”
>_<
What if commander strain of the Bish Virus was mutated after contact of Jared Dna.
Causing his transformation to differ from the rest of the men and become more Jaredy.
Doesn’t this mean that Mr. Fish is still technically wild?
yeah give or take this means if Jared been using a handicapped pokemon if you believe wild ones are weaker than their capture versions. Which means jared more manly than we expected
He got the Magikarp from Professor Oak. Mr. Fish is no more wild than Ash’s Pikachu.
I thought it was just one of the pokemon that showed up on his lawn, so… wild.
Ya, Cu is right, Mr. Fish was just one of the wild ones on his lawn, Oak didn’t want him to use it but he started going on about how they’d already bonded etc.
Can someone explain to me what Jiffy Pop is? It doesn’t matter in context of enjoying the comic, but now I’m stuck on that.
It’s a type of popcorn. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiffy_Pop
I feel like some testosterone has already returned to this comic because of that cigar.
You make a lovely float, Mr. Fish. All we need now is some flowers, some sequines, streamers and other colorful stuff and you’ll be ready in time for next years Rosebowl Parade.
…Dude. Please don’t make Mr Fish more vaguely annoyed than it already is!
to all you peoples who’re complaining about mashing A/O, and recycling old text…have you tried mashing the cancel button instead? many games allow you to do this, and it stops everything when you hit an option…
This comic made me laugh out loud.
It’s not too often that I get that from a visual gag in a comic, but yeah, seeing Mr Fishy tied to the car like that, it made me laugh.
Commander’s new glasses are starting to bug me.
-How are they staying on?-
Hair-jell. Bishi exude it like sweat.
I thought they perspired glitter and wind blowing their hair.
I propose it is a concentrated mixture of glitter and gel that helps hold the roots up to give lift before lessening as it reaches the tips of the hair allowing for the smooth movement usually only seen when using a wind machine!
The moment they meet Gackt, All their weapons will be full on giant Bishie weapon swords
The gun will shoot little GIANT SWORDS.
Will Mr. Fish turn into a giant sword?
No, but he will spontaneously learn Swords Dance.
But what move will he have to forget?
“Roll over.” :D
“Don’t Eat Jared” :p
More than likely he will learn hyperbeam or some other gigantic laser move. I mean since hes a dragon type he kinda needs something like that eh?
That’s what I admire about the Captain: doesn’t say no when there’s a problem. Instead he solves it using his badassery and brain.
Is he saying he’s going to turn Mr. Fish INTO jiffy pop, or that he’s going going to make jiffy pop FOR Mr. Fish?
Question: Jared survived for months in the wild (I assume), and had to physically BEAT POKEMON TO DEATH to evolve Mr. Fish. My question is this:
Does Jared have some untapped BADASS himself? Or is it just plain luck and his foes all being morons?
I would say not so much “untapped” as “unconventional.”
Like many of us, Jared’s father wanted little to do with him. We walk our own lonesome road to manliness.
All I could think of when Commander mentioned his ball was something like a giant hamster ball…. I think that would be awesome! Mr. Fish could just curl up in a big one and it would be like he was a tiny embryo magicarp or whatever possible unknown baby pokemon we will never see cause it is a pre-hatching. Dunno the mental image just strikes me as adorable this morning! XD
What model of car does the commander drive anyway?
Without access to his VIN number, I’d have to guess that he’s got some manner of mid-50’s Chevrolet. Bel Air coupe, maybe?
Looks like it. Maybe a 58. Although It sorta looks like a hybrid between the ’57 and the ’58.
All the magnetons he caught before seems like a much mor impressive achievement now!
Never to kawaii for cigars.
Never.
Commander… I’m sorry, but the bishonen look just ruins the bad ass effect of a cigar.
Wait. So Jared can…rock climb? Trainers can do that? Who gave him the HM? Does this mean he’s a rock type?
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, I remember that the trainers couldn’t climb up mountains, but could jump down from the rock ledges for some reason. Then again this might be outdated knowledge as I have not played pokemon for a long time (lost my old gameboy).
Some bicycles can, but otherwise still no.
Oh god. Please let Gackt attack with Vanilla or something.
I have to warn you, I’m starting to get used to Commander Bishie…
Ya know, it didn’t quite hit me until just now: the mental image of Magikarp eating jiffy pop is fricken adorable.
Mr Fish must’ve been so happy in those days before he grew up and started eating opponents’ ratatas & pikachus.
Sixth panel. So much yes.
Fair trade for having a hyper beam, etc. on yer roof.
How could this comment thread exist without a *SINGLE* Romney joke anywhere in here about tying dogs onto cars? lol so glad he lost…..
I’m rereading this story and enjoying it even more the second time around. I’m also finally realizing that Commander Bishass looks like a young, blond Elvis Presley.
