Dastardly Disease Ridden
Sorry about the walls of text in this post, I needed to get a lot of information across, but I hope it still ends up being funny (please don’t kill me!)
OH! I did a guest strip over here 🙂
UPDATE: Got Motokool up today as well 🙂
Poor kid =[
I’m writing it and I feel bad for him 🙁
Poor Chase.. =[
But I like his face in the first panel. :O
i wouldn’t have him like that forever I promise 🙂
thats gotta be tough you know ass disease effects 1 out of ever 5 children and we need your help to get a cure donate now and we’ll send you more information and a picture of a child every month suffering from ass disease and with your help i think these kids can make it through this
Writing from experience? ;D
for the being horridly poor part, or the sitting on a towel in school part?
That was hardly a wall of text, and if it coincides into the flow of the comic, I’m more than ok with it. Backstorybackstorybackstory.
Thanks Average 🙂 Whenever I think of comics that have a good handle on the “less is more” lettering, I keep thinking of Sinfest and Girls with Slingshots 🙂
I read all of your comics and I have to say that the style along with your way of story telling really makes me wish that I could just buy a giant graphic novel that tells this story. I mean, it’s nice getting to read a new page everyday, but I really hope that one day you can write a comic book or something with this great style of art, witty humor, and great transition from serious to funny.
Seriously, huge fan here. Love everything.
Thanks Mateo, that really means a lot, I mean A LOT to hear, so thank you very much for the kind words, and I hope that I can only get better for everyone who comes here to read my comics 🙂
I, too, would happily buy this in graphic novel form 😀
I only found these a few days ago, and stayed up all night reading ALL of them 😀
And somehow he still grows up to be awesome.
hardly peeing sporadically in his adulthood, good job Chase 🙂
Agreed, it’s quite the accomplishment.
I feel bad for Chase, but he is still pretty awesome when he grows up. I wish he was real <3 haha
You write amazing comics! I am a HUGE fan of Nerf-This and Scout! I've turned my friends to it and they love it as well.
aaaaand for us girls who love cute yet mildly scary things…you should look into making monty shirts…or even better…monty plushies 😀
Y’know, it may just be something about this comic, but hell, I’m a guy and I’D buy a Monty plushie.
Thanks Brehavoc! I’m really happy you like my comics, that’s awesome to hear, and thank you for letting your friends know too!
The good news is that I do have an almost completed prototype of a Monty doll (finally haha). Once that get’s done, I’ll be able to show some pictures 🙂
Oh my gosh, a Monty doll?! That’s so exciting! I can only hope he comes with dapper accessories!
I was so upset about Chase, then I saw Monty doll. Now I’m tingling in new fuzzy places. <3
Why must I start reading the comic during the most intense storyline! Now I have to wait!
Oh, I can already tell Chase had a wonderful childhood.
Wow. I grew up like that (with my wonderful mum divorced from my.. uh.. dad. No, he’s great… rly…) and this strip really got me — serious and humorous at the same time.
Hehe, this strip might be your masterpiece considering all the kudos you’re getting so far. 😉 Keep up the awesome work, as always! 🙂
Rock Chalk Jayhawk!
Chase’s mom is pretty AND pretty badass 🙂
Has it ever come up if Chase has any siblings? Apparently the parents are divorced, but besides that, I’d imagine he started showing signs of his “specialness” early and they decided to stop with one kid…
Before this I’d always assumed Chase was the bastard child of a wayward carebear and some sort of sneaky unextinctable dinosaur.
I pictured the drunken threesome bastard child of Rainbow bright, Willy Wonka, and the Thundercats Liono..because Lions are cool dammit.
By Barnaby Jones withered husk. Chase and I seem to have had a similar childhood. No wonder why this comic is one of my must reads. You sir have a talent for turning the truly awkward into something brilliant.
Thanks for the great comics, my entire shop is addicted to nerf and scout! 😀
Cutest little boy ever! I see a lot of little me in Chase… in a non-creepy way! Also weeee! Monty doll!
Also Chase’s mom is awesome!
i read another webcomic and they’re being made into a movie
you should totally try to do that. It would work, in my opinion.
Head down, hands in pockets and sad face… Poor Chase I never would’ve thought I would see him so down
so the mother of Chase is revealed! 😡
That and if your gonna show Chase in girls clothing make it good and hilariously embarrassing. xD
silliness aside great job with the comic so far :3
and as a added side note, the smily system here is weird :<
WordPress is wonky like that 😉
Yeah, I’m reading it and mainly feeling bad for the poor kid. But it totally explains his attitude as a grownup.
now i am a bit confused.
i thought Chase never had a longterm mother,

Is that a Kansas University shirt that his mom is wearing?
It’s a Kutztown University shirt from PA, which is one of the schools I attended 🙂
I go there now! ahahaa!
I thought that was Kutztown! I went to Bloom.
Yeah, I saw that and thought it was Kutztown. I looked there for college. But I decided against it eventually, Im going to IPFW in Indiana. Thats cool, I didnt know you went there.
Wow, a surprisingly deepressing origin story to our beloved Chase. Isn’t it strange how random humour and dark twists make the best stories?
Wait a moment in one of the earlier strips chase was seen as chauvanistic because his dad was bringing home other Mom and thats how he learned to treat women was there a joint custody deal going on and the chase from this time is much more sensitive and nice than that original character.
This Comic Series ‘caught’ my attention.
