This is probably the fastest I’ve cranked out this many panels

sorry for the WiP, colour’ll be up later. throwing it up like this to fulfill the terms of a deal I made with the devil where if I don’t get a new thing on my site before 12AM midnight of the next Monday in whatever time zone I’m in I turn into a pillar of salt.
ALL HAIL LORD C’HELIXTHU!
Yeah, I saw the skull and instantly went “Ah… so this is Jared’s fault… somehow.”
Wait…what skull are you talking about? I don’t see a skull. -_-
The Omanyte skull. Or shell. You know, whatever that thing is.
I consider skull acceptable, just like the Dome Fossil is a Kabuto/Kabutops skull, the Helix can be a skull too!
What worries me is that Lord C’Helixthu is just the Gatekeeper. There’s a lot more Old Ones coming close behind him, ya’ know…
But if Cthelix is the Gatekeeper…
Who is the Keymaster?
The Domeinator?
I see what you did there.
I feel like I should know what this is from
Ghostbusters
Talk about Cosmic horror… =_=; *shivers*
Aaanyway~ I’m waiting for Commander pulls out a BFG or a hugeass robot & kill that thing XDDDDDD
Yeah, we get to see the Commander and Canadian Guy doin’ jaeger bombs again. Wouldn’t that just be awesome? Or they go in with Mr. Fish as a partner and we see him go mega, and he’ll get a Wave motion gun to replace his lasers or something. And given its Mr. Fish he would redefine badass.
Well.. looks like Commander B will get to see what the others were up to after all. So.. do we get to see Commander punch Omnithulhu in the face now?
What I’m interested to see is if Paul’s still running around with the Commanders spare jacket.
I feel like this is more of a “Kratos” type of problem. Or maybe that quiet little guy that climbed all those colossi (colossuses? colossies? More than one colossus).
wander :D that’s the shadow of collusses guy
wander wasnt quiet, he didnt had anyone to talk to other than his horse and his dead girlfriend, not much of a talk you know. and Dormin is a really brief guy/woman/whateverisitgoddemon.
and for the records, your first guess was right.
I feel like it would be awesome to watch a super mega-evolved mr. fish fight that thing.
I always knew Facebook would somehow bring about the destruction of humanity. I knew it from the goddamn start.
I’ve been telling people for years that it’s pure evil! But people use it anyway! No one listens to me! They call me crazy!
Don’t worry! I don’t think you’re crazy!
I think we just need to get you back to your nice padded cell, so you can take your vitamins and the big scary cthonic pokemon-deity can go back to sleep…
Quite a while ago, I wanted to leave a comment on some comic or blog somewhere, but the only way to sign in to do so was through Facebook login. But I wised up & deactivated that FB account, so YOU CAN”T BLAME THIS ON ME!
Mr. Fish, anytime you want to use all those mega stones and kill Omegahelix is fine with me. But sooner is preferable to later.
So I’ve been thinking about this. If one megastone turns gyarados from a long and thin sea monster into a shorter and thicker sea monster, when Mr. Fish uses all of them, will he turn into some sort of gyara-sphere?
He turns into Ozma from FF9.
I’m… now imagining him turning into Ozma… from Oz. Ow.
That’s it! Jared will fix everything by clicking his heels together three times! :)
Mr. Fish needs to recharge his laser, like NOW!!!
so wait thinking about time travel causes temporary reality to bleed into the main reality?. That’s it if I ever time travel I’m going to need a lobotomy first!
That’s why real time travelers always get black-out drunk first…didn’t you see that Upright Citizens Brigade sketch?
Real time travelers and galactic hitchhikers. Don’t forget your towel.
I don’t know if it’s that complicated, it could just be that Jonesy made him miss and come back two weeks later instead of two minutes – and it’s a “temporary” reality because he’s (hopefully) going to jump back again to prevent this from happening.
Is there a Doctor in the house?
Commander has said that you shouldn’t use Time travel to fix all your problems
The same commander who went back in time to beat himself up and steal his own coffee said thst?
That’s not fixing a problem though, that’s just good fun!
He wasn’t trying to fix a problem…He was causing one…
He was sending himself a reminder-message that he can’t let his guard down.
Usually, I like webcomics that have Easter Eggs in them…But ‘Squid went a little overboard with this. Too many Easter Eggs in the previous page led to this, ya’ know. The next thing is that everybody dies from cholesterol poisoning…
Who’s to say this didn’t happen in two minutes?
Oh God. Is this actually going to get a resolution? Because that would be amazing.
Thus, a new arc awaits…
Jared has some explaining to do. Or does the Commander really think her question created this problem? Either way I know hilarity will ensue.
I think she did. The situation with Jared was an extended result of the Commander’s absence. It happened over time. If he went back to approximately when they left, this should have been there, because it wouldn’t have had time to happen. Others touched on this too, but I think that it’s more that her thinking about time travel while time travelling caused that reality to bleed into the real one somehow.
Clearly the only option is to go back in time and warn the Commander of the future, thereby ruining it further and causing all of existence to be reset
Quit thinkin’ about it, go back, and make Jared take out the trash. What did we say happened when you think about time travel?
HE gotsm SPLAININ’ TA DO, MAN
Is this a case of ask a stupid question, get a sanity bending otherworldly spaces answer?
ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn!
Y’know, you just might be right about that.
Good thing this is an internet comments page. Looks easier to spell it out than to say it.
It is. It’s even worse since there’s no “official” pronunciation, so yeah….
Wait, so is it like a Schrodinger’s Cat thing where it is simultaneously opposite states until you check? Only, just by thinking about it before opening it, you kill the cat or trigger the pokemon apocalypse? And by opening without thinking, everything is the way you left it and also the cat is alive?
There needs to be a word for the pokemon apocalypse… Pokepocalypse? Maybe just apokelypse?
Also .
Lord Helix hath acquired a Mega Evolution. Praise be to Helix!
HE SHALL CRUSH ALL UNDER HIS SPIRALLY TENTACLE! PRAISE TO HELIX!
༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つPRAISE HELIX༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ Let his righteous fury fall on the followers of the Dome!
Two Poki Enter!
One Poki Leaves!
All hail the master Blastortoise
Nah. it’s gonna be laser fish that saves the day.
So it’s an…….
Omastarspawn of Cthulhu?
No. Omastar IS Cthulhu.
Yeah…. We need Mega Mr. Fish now…. and possibly some new pants.
What if Mr. Fish went mega and swallowed Lord Helix, with this being the result?
Well…. Still only knows four moves. Too bad “Don’t eat Jared” probably isn’t one of them anymore. (YOU DON’T HAVE ENOUGH BADGES TO TRAIN ME!)
…Or at least a good laundry service, if you can’t afford new pants.
Buff Omanyte/Cthulhu rules.
Can’t wait to see how this ends, partly because I want to see who’s more to blame for Cthulhu-manyte: Jones or Jared?
but has jared himself gone through a mega evolution?
The best part of this is all the different names for Pokefantasia’s Night on Helix Mountain in the comments.
For me, the best part is Rock just staring at his siblings. “Why. Why would you say that? Seriously, come on.”
Oh my Goodness!. Look at commander’s face in th 5th Panel. He know’s whats going to happen.
And I literally fell out of my Chair Laughing.
On a scale of 1 to 10, how likely is it that we will get a wallpaper of Omathulhu? Because I would pay money for that.
Obviously Mr. Fish will come and save the day. Let the ballad of the laser fish play again!
You know, somebody should totally make a song named Ballad of the Laser Fish.
Since Mr. Fish eats pretty much anything (including other Pokemon), then this would be like Thanksgiving Day to him.
This is hilarious, and awesome.
So the main thing I’m getting is that I should never time-travel. I’d probably screw this up, and then keep trying to figure out how thinking about time travel caused this result, preventing anyone from fixing it. (also, extra-nice otherworldy effect on Lord Cthulhix with the coloured lines)
What did you get from the Devil, cause that sounds like a high price…
well, that’s a problem. Hopefully only the unimportant people died.
(Background characters, annoying sidekicks, taxmen. JarJar Binks)
Waiting for her to sober up was a baaaaaaaaaad idea.
I was about to type that :D
She’s way too sober to time travel…
DEMOCRACY
ANARCHY
DEMONACHY
start9, start9, start9
No! BAD HELIX!
Get back in the throwaway joke! TPP isn’t even remotely relevant any more!
Platinum is starting in 2 days lol
let me get the plant equivalent of a seed.
not seed nuke
No, no, that’s not enough! Kill it with fire!
It’s not very effective!
Oh Lordy, I almost choked while laughing at this! XD I wonder how Mr. Lobster’s going to solve this problem? Maybe he’ll get his own entry in the TVTropes article “Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?” ?
Omanyte Chernabog… Omnibog? Rock just seeing this is comedic hilarity.
Oh sure, blame the chick for your interns cult summoning. :P
Eldritch Lord Omagod is actually terrifying.
OMG, it’s Omagod!
Damn, Omanite looks creepy as an Elder God…
IT’S THE END TIMES! THE END TIMES HAVE COME!!!
Awwww how cute, all the babies merged.
I don’t think you should finish the coloring job. Lovecraftian monsters always seem more interesting when done in a style different than the world around them.
Shady, semi translucent chalk drawings are a fine way to show the whole mind destruction it should inspire.
That’s intentional. She originally posted it pre-colors.
Ia, ia! Helix fhtagn!
Where is a master ball when you need one?
Oh my God, I always thought it wasn’t much of a big deal if artist didn’t come around coloring a page they had to post in black and white but the coloring on that… Fifth Stage evolution of the Helix! It looks phenomenal, not what I perceived from the colorless counterpart at all!
Man… where’s All-Terrain-Venomoth when you need him?
The colour version looks fantabulicious
That’s some mighty fine eldrich pokémon right there.
Also, whys everyone blaming Jared? It was Dom who picked up & walked around with all the “Easter Eggs” that hatched the little guys.
Double-Also: how do we know they merged? They could have canibalized each other, gaining in strength, until only the strongest was left (with the stolen power of it’s kin)
Physical Challenge (er…also) Is there a space-future computer on the “past” (present) that’s somehow hooked into the space-futures internet, thus allowing for space-future-present-past-facebookery? In other words: quantum entanglement, or did a wizard do it? (Oh, mass effect fields :-D)
I didn’t even know Omastar’s got a Mega Evolution.
Cthomastar for the win.
That part about thinking about time travel is a reference to something? I’m lost at that part.
But something is sure, the group therapy to treat all the guys will be quite expensive after all this gets solved. Not Kratos, he doesn’t need any therapy – he only needs a box full of Hope to angrily flip.
Go back about a dozen strips.
Someone should maybe summon Godzilla. I think he’s the only thing big enough to fix this without time shenanigans.
Nah, He’d just head straight for Tokyo. What we need is a couple dozen Jaegers to handle it.
I would kill to have that panel as a desktop background!!!
Pretty much the best conclusion ever. Coelasquid, you rock.
Throw a pokeball! Or use a trapezohedron!
Fantastic reaction shots of the Commander and Jonesy. Great comic this week as usual.
Quick, stop thinking!
Jared :
Shiny Cthulhu!
*Throws Premier Ball*
doop.
Doop.
dooop.
Ping!
You and Mr. Fish are going to be the BESTEST buddies.
what is a premier ball?
The least special of the special Pokeballs. It has the same catch rate as a regular Pokeball, and doesn’t do anything special post-capture like the Friend or Luxury balls. It just looks nicer.
Ah got you. from the post I was thinking maybe it was some god catcher poke’ball or something like that. Then again I suppose it would help if I played the game. There are what 5 or 6 kinds counting master right?
Closer to 13, I think.
Many of them are useless except in special situations, like the Dusk ball (higher catch rate in caves and at night), or Nest Ball (higher catch rates on pokes that you ALREADY HAVE).
The premier ball is the “Bragging Rights” ball. You get one free when buying 10 or more pokeballs, so the strategy is to buy 10, 10, 10, 10, etc pokeballs to optimize the number you get. If you actually succeed in catching something, even a pidgy, in a premier ball, you get to brag about it for weeks. If it’s a legendary, for months. If it’s a shiny, for years. If it’s a shiny legendary, for life.
Nest balls actually work well on weaker (AKA lower level) Pokemon. Repeat balls are the ones you want for Pokemon you already have. And most people don’t even brag about catching anything in a premier ball, at least no more than a regular pokeball. I think most people just see it as a free pokeball really.
Greatest crossover ever, right here.
Time for Commander to clean up another one of Jared’s messes.
Stop it. These jokes aren’t funny, and even if they were, Bob and George ran this kind of humor into the ground 10 years before you did. Now can we PLEASE go back to the randomness format?!
Actually, I think these are quite funny. :) I think it’s nice to mix up longer storylines with one-time jokes. :) Don’t let the haters get you down. :)
Facebook still existing in the future? Well now all my suspension of disbelief is gone.
No, it died, then when time travel for data was invented, all that old crap was revived. Because the novelty of mySpacing with people who don’t live in space is oh so cool.
You know, you could (without upsetting me at least), take a couple of weeks off and post quick “filler” material, like single-panel sketches of various things, or promos for your other project, if you want to get some time to yourself and to get yourself a tiny buffer. Of course, I am ignorant of the terms of your devil’s pact, so that might not be an option.
Don’t burn yourself to a cinder to entertain us for, essentially, free! Jesus Lady, you gotta take care of you too!
I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.
At least it’s only level 1! And she’s the same egg group as Mr. Fish! (No she’s not, but it would be awesome if she was)
Maybe it just wants a friend! Maybe it just wants to be appreciated and loved. And have tea parties together with finger sandwiches and floral teacups! STOP JUDGING OMATHON!
I absolutely and undoubtedly NEED the Lord Cthelix panel in a big res to use it as my permanent desktop, fuck every other desktop I may use, I only need him.
So that’s what happens when you think about time travel. Instead of returning and resetting the original timeline, you come back to the temporary opposite one. Clever, Squid, clever…
Alternate, not opposite. Ugh, I’m tired.
