CALLBACKS: Minecraft: Great, Minecraft II: Guess Who’s Back
Hey, I got a shout-out from Unwinder’s Tall Comics over the weekend! You should go check out Unwinder’s Tall Comics, because it is a good comic and it is updating regularly again as of late. +1 +1 +1!
Hey, also I got a shout-out from Robert Montoya at his serial fiction blog Story Ship! You may remember Robert as the co-writer of a couple of Sketch Comedy strips. Dude is prolific, creative, and he is updatin’ like a pro. Check his stuff out at storyship.blogspot.com!
Okay, that’s enough blatant plugs for now. New Cetch Skomedy tomorrow, and more Howard in Minecraft on Friday.
CALLBACKS: Minecraft II: Sup, Hey
CALLBACKS: Minecraft: Caves, Minecraft II: Guess Who’s Back, Hey
Check the “Caves” callback if you are unfamiliar with Howard’s signature catchphrase!
Need a refresher on Howard’s first visit to the world of Minecraft? There’s a callback for that.
CALLBACKS: My Little Sketchy: Cartooning Is Magic, Have A Hearthwarming Holiday
You know I love My Little Pony: Frienship is Magic, but on more than one occasion Twilight’s been the butt of a joke about her overattention to detail. In Season 2, you could count on just about any Twilight-centered episode to exaggerate her bookishness to Straw-Vulcan proportions (“Lesson Zero” or “It’s About Time”), showing an overblown obsession with thoroughness that no sane person would ever exhibit. In “Lesson Zero,” she attempts to manufacture problems just to be able to solve them! Maybe I’m oversensitive to these things as an intellectual myself, and to their credit, the writers gave her a few opportunities to put her practical intellect to work, such as when she took Pinkie Pie to mystery-solving school “MMMystery on the Friendship Express.”
This is how we express our love at Sketch Comedy: by talking smack about the things we enjoy. In kindergarten we threw rocks at girls we liked.
What did you think of Season 2 as a whole? Did you enjoy the finale? If you’re Dwight, could you even care less?
CALLBACKS: If You Were Really Sorry For Party Rocking You Would Stop Party Rocking
As I remarked earlier this week on Twitter, “I am sick of songs where the hook sounds like it’s played by Decepticons with kazoos. Pitbull and Ne-Yo, I’m looking at you.”
CALLBACKS: Nappy Zoo Gear, Multitrack the Future
CALLBACKS: Meet Susan: Sign Language, Meet Susan: I Made You Deaf
I had originally intended for this comic to be animated, but the filesize rapidly became unwieldy, among other issues. We hope you’ve enjoyed Susan’s introduction!
On Tuesday we will return to Sketch Comedy as normal, whatever that means.
UPDATE: At Dwight’s request, there is now a full-color Susan desktop available for download on the Extras page!
