Chapter: Comic

Sorry this is late, I haven’t had internet for the past day or two, so finally public internet will now temporarily be my friend. Anyways, I’m bringing the shading back because I wasn’t that happy with it. Still trying to find ways to fix this.

PS: Meanwhile, Nergil makes a friend.

Out of curiousity (and a little hopefulness), is this arc just an excuse to draw the girls in bikinis?

  I think it’s more of an excuse to draw nearly naked men having terrible things done to them.

      Except for that one person who threw a fit about about rape.

“You gotta purdy mouth, I’mma make you squeal like me.”

Hopefully Nergil will bring home the “bacon”.
But if he goes too far by truck he might have to “hoof” it back.
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to “flank” him, “butt” he makes a good target for my puns.

  Maybe I should stop “porking” fun at him?
- Shane
  
  my head just exploded from all of those puns. you sir are the pun master
  - ChaosSorceror Davidicus
    
    Thank you, my equally good sir, I have been working for a while now on being able to summon up a pun about any and all topics on the draw. But this comic certainly knows how to…. “grease” the wheels, as it were.
    Still working on getting them to flow well tho.

      You sir, are conquring a power many have tried and failed. I mean look at Donald Trump. I dont know what that refernce was for so as you see I cannot do that.
abowden

yep, he’s about to get porked.

Two things, one did you use this arc as an excuse to both abuse chase and nergil and draw girls in bikinis if so I applaud you sir (for the second not the first), two yeah the more I look at past comics the more similar chase and nergil seem. Oh and I have no idea who I should feel more sorry for, chase or nergil?

Question! How goes the book? Any news on that?

Nergil, man, you’ve changed. I remember when the pig woulda been afraid of you. I think it was the eyepatch. When you lost the eyepatch, it like like Sampson losing his locks.

Oh god yes

Love the backpedal. What? No! Well, maybe. Probably.

… what happened to Nergil’s swimsuit…

I feel kind of sorry for the evil bastard. Pigs are nasty, nasty, nasty animals that can make you swear off pork if you ever spend more than an hour at a pig farm.

  Nah, cause when I eat pork, I just think “another one down…”
Nekro13

I feel so bad for Nergil right now. Pigs are one of the most evil creatures on the planet… But I mainly feel sorry for him for knowing the words to an Aqua song from 88′. No one should feel that pain agai…. Oh wait… I’ll stop now.

Poor Nergil. Surprised he didn’t turn the pig into bacon. And just how did he wind up in the back of that truck?
Isolde

Seriously? You’ve taken it too far dude. Rape is not funny. It should not be considered funny. There is nothing funny about being having something that should be beautiful, fun, and intimate forced upon you. I don’t understand why something so traumatic and horrible is considered funny by so many.
I understand crude humor is a big part of Nerf This. But there is a difference between crude and demeaning. Much like how you do not make light of a holocaust victim, or physical abuse victim, you should not make fun of rape victims.

  I didn’t do this post implying rape as a joke, I did it for the sake that there is a female pig that’s attracted to Nergil, hence the long eyelashes and heavy flirtation. The point of the strip was to be an awkward moment, not Nergil having intercourse forced upon him. Sorry that it was interpreted that way. You’re right, rape isn’t funny, but I thought a pig having an awkward attraction to Nergil would be.

    I gotta say, rape in a humorous sense is funny.
  - Isolde
    
    Sorry Scott. Guess I’m hyper sensitive to the topic, have had too many people be rude and condescending towards me regarding why, and jumped on your case when I thought I saw something. I’m sorry about that. Thank you for agreeing with me about the rape thing though. And for being so polite about all this. A lot of people would have just yelled at me me and said to leave and not read the comic. Tends to happen when someone says a sensitive topic isn’t funny that others believe is. A something as personal as what you laugh at is enough to cause anger on either side I suppose.
    
    That being said, I do love your comic with all the fibers of my being, and laugh regularly because of it. And looking at the pig as being just awkwardly attracted to Nergil is rather amusing.
    
    Sorry for causing a stir on your site. <3

  All I see is a female pig giving Nergil a hug. All you see is Nergil scratched up, naked and singing a terrible song. The pigs could have tried to eat him for all you know.

  How do you know it was rape? If you insinuate it’s rape then your spreading the thought this specific comic is about rape when the pig could be hugging, eating, or dancing to the music he is singing. And how could you possibly say something about the holocaust or an abuse victim when this is a comic. Not real. Not true. Fantasy. Get used to it. This is not to say rape or any other type of abuse is funny and should not be taken lightly in any place save for where it’s make belive or un-true. If you realize crude humor is a part of Nerf This then dont complain when it happen’s. What about what was supposedly paedophilia was a joke. That’s it. Just like this strip.

    I must have missed that one–where was the pedophilia joke? I remember one about an old man being accused of it and arrested when he accidentally gave Zoey’s bag to his grandson, but that’s all I can think of right off the top of my head. Unless you’re talking about the “chick” play on words?

      You know you don’t HAVE to read an online comic unless you WANT to…that is unless your internet has control of your brain waves O_O!

        As I was honestly asking which comic kuzatorn was referencing, I will assume that you intended that comment to be a response to Isolde.

      It’s where the pidgen(or however its spelt) asked Monty to come pick up chicks with him. Monty pointed to a group of baby chickens and I guess it was sort of implying picking up kids.

        Ahhhh, o.k. For some reason, my brain didn’t get that particular aspect that day, so thank you for clearing that up.

  What I don’t understand is how you think your opinion is the only right one here. First of all, there is no “Making fun of rape victims” here, second of all, it’s very obvious you’re one of a very few who assumed the comic was about rape. Lets slow down and think before we start piling on the criticism, eh? Yeah, lets do that.

  While there were a few inappropriate comments made earlier/below this post about “pig rape”, I think it’s unfair to assume that was Scott’s intention. Just remember that the commenters are expressing their own opinions, not speaking as a mouthpiece for the author.

  Dude, take a chill pill man. You clearly should not be on the interwebs if you can’t take jokes.

MR PIGGEH! (HES SECRETLY A SNAKE)

I don’t know why, but the fact Nergil knows that song is funny by itself.

Is it just me, or has taryn’s dad gotten less huge and scary lately?

Poor Nergil.
He’s not that evil without his curse…
