Tightening the Ship

Chapter: Comic

So far this new work schedule I put myself on seems to be pretty successful. I’m getting the strips done a little faster, which works better than previous attempts.

Who says scram, anyway?

PS: Scout Crossing updated

Old people.

  Hey! I say “scram,” you whippersnapper!
  - Scotticus
    
    I say it to spiders.
    - JacobAvail
      
      To spiders I only usually manage to say AAAAAAAAAAAAUGHAAAAHHHH!!!!!
      - Scotticus
        
        this is of course, spiders that are no larger than a dime. For the ones bigger than that, I just lay down and wait to die.

    I’ll whip and snap you, grandpa! >=O

      Careful, he might like it…
      - Diva
        
        Trust me, he’ll like it…

Gah! So close to first. Awesome comic.
- Scotticus
  
  Thanks for the kind words, I’m glad you like it
  - knotknight
    
    Oh, jeez. I didn’t mean to seem like I just wanted to be first. I absolutely adore your three comics. And I feel a bit bad admitting that the Shadow Guy is my favorite character….
    - Scotticus
      
      haha, out of writing dialog for characters, I honestly think I enjoy writing for Finn, Shadow Guy, and the little Emotion Guy the most
      
      As much as I try to make Shadow Guy a bad guy, it’s pretty hard doing that
      - knotknight
        
        Oh, Goodness. Finn, that amazing man… ._. I suppose /he’s/ actually my favorite. I sent that comic to quite a few people just to see him…

! Just noticed that’s the same outfit Chase is currently donning! Dandy!
- JacobAvail
  
  (That is, almost the same. Chase’s vest isn’t pinstripey.)
- Souffrir
  
  I see. Shadow Guy is Voldemort and Chase is Harry Potter, and Shadow Guy’s impact on Chase’s childhood imparted some of Shadow Guy’s characteristics on Chase…
  
  …wait, no, that’s stupid.
  - Matt_the_geek
    
    only because there is no scar link…
  - Nick
    
    Or that Shadow Guy is a future version of Chase or Nega-Chase, the evil universe version of Chase.

I love how you gave the “R” in “WARF” a face.
- Scotticus
  
  I was trying to sneak it in the “A” but that proved to be finicky D:
- Souffrir
  
  Crap, I didn’t even notice that. Nicely done, sirs.

I say scram to those damn whippersnappers who won’t get off my lawn. Also scat and sometimes vamoose, if the occasion calls for it.

Love the too fat, too thin, just right bit… although I’m not sure I wanna think about why there was a condom in Shadow Dude’s garbage.

(yes, I know it wasn’t necessarily from HIS garbage, but it adds a level of awfulness I like)
Marissa

That dog is totally like mine.
Only cuter. :/
- Scotticus
  
  and like mine, but probably less scared of beach balls.
  - Marissa
    
    That’s adorable and endearing.
    Whenever I tell my dog to get up she thinks i say “Maul the cat!” because that’s exactly what she does! So cute!
Los

I always hear him as a more animated Darth Vader (minus the breathing) when I read his parts in my head.
Fish

Naww that dog’s goofy smile is so cute!

A condom, cigarettes…a razor? and what is the triangley thingy??
- Scotticus
  
  I think when I drew it, my mindset was “pointy things”. Maybe metal?
- OutLawRed
  
  the hounds i would raise as a kid would somehow pass tinfoil, plastic, and other non-digestible things if they had the chance to eat it.

Wait so there was a razor and a condom in HIS trash? What do we not know about this guy!?
- Scotticus
  
  He’s a scandalous rapscallion.
  - Mr.Tophat
    
    Sounds oddly tasty.
- PinkE
  
  And moreover, why does the dog vomiting said items make him want to keep him as an attraction? The mind boggles.
Souffrir

How frikking big is that dog?

Or those cigarettes and that condom were both made for smurfs.

Why are you telling me that “smurf” is not a real word, Safari? Are you trying to suggest smurfs aren’t real? YOU ARE NO LONGER MY BROWSER OF CHOICE.
- Matt_the_geek
  
  Could be as big as Fang…
  - http://somewhere dorthyinwonder
    
    @Matt – Fang was amazing, if a lot cowardly! Also, I’m sure those spiders that Jacob and Scott are scared of are as big as Aragog…that would be a sight (Good thing we aren’t informed of any magically enlarged special breed of roaches in Harry Potter).
    
    @Scott – I’m kind of surprised Shadow Guy is more amazed at the condom than the razor.

Almost didn’t see the face in the R at first, but when I did, coffee went everywhere. Little details like that are fantastic.
Steve

…My dog vomited similarly…in front of my mother in law. Wife luckily thought it was hilarious.

My new life goal is to high five a bobcat now
Ivory

Make note that it’s an unopened Condom…That definetly says something about ShadowGuy.

I say scram! And I’m only 18…
I like to say, “Scram, Scat, Skedaddle!”
Rob_Strudel

Hey, I have a gray pinstripe suit just like Shadow-Guy’s, I wear it with a black button-up, and a black tie… whenever I wear it, my friend’s think they owe me money. Oh, classic gangster look, when do you not come in handy… IS SHADOW-GUY AN OLD SCHOOL GANGSTER!? He’s the real OG.
Mr.Tophat

Geese lay golden eggs. Dog’s vomit the assorted objects required to be an emo, minus condom.
