i think nickleback and creed are the same band, but with different masks on. like mrs. doubtfire. and i think they’re all just radiohead. fucking thom yorke is playing a gigantic joke on the world.
So win…. Love Nickleback jokes. Maybe this will be enough to get Scout into gear – even if he doesn’t give a damn about himself I don’t think he wants to see Liz bite it.
Hahahahahahah!!!! Anti-Nickelback insurance: way more expensive than anti-theft or arson insurance, due to the sheer fact of the utter destruction wreaked!
Scott, this is such a solid comic! I’m always anxious to see what’s coming next. I think we’ve got a real gem on our hands. Keep it up, man! 😀
As a Canadian, I’d like to personally apologise for letting our country produce that garbage. Seriously, we’re SO SO SO SO SORRY. I guess we can call a truce. We’re not a vengeful people, but I think Nickelback would be more than sufficient revenge for American imperialism and overall belligerence if we were. But seriously, revenge was never wanted, and neither was Nickelback. Oh my god, what have we done?
You have a point there. We need to work on making him Governor General, or at the very least a senator (senate seats are appointed, not elected in Canada, which is kinda stupid).
I think that most of the people who listen to Nickelback are the MTV-watching “sheeple” and not the kind of people who find their way into the comments section of an obscure webcomic. I’ve never watched MTV, but I know that our MTV equivalent in Canada called Much Music played their bullshit ad infinitum for a fucking long-ass time. Much Music doesn’t seem to stop at just their shitty hip-hop, but also has to penetrate rock music with cookie-cutter bullshit and claim it to be representative of the music scene. This leads trend-hoppers to jump right on the Nickelback bandwagon, and these people are a both impressionable and sizable audience.
It’s hated because it’s replayed a lot and is similar to any other song in the industry? Like, say, Any Other Song in the Industry? Doesn’t… doesn’t really explain anything.
…
You do realize that, when compared to most popular music, Nickelback is a hapless, adorable ocelot in a lion’s den of undiluted suck. (Yes. Sucklions.)
I feel like this joke is a gross exaggeration when the band is presented next to, um, any Disney music star ever created, for example. Or Justin Bieber. And even then, I grow tired of hopelessly exaggerated insinuations that their music is the creation of the devil when it’s just not very good.
I guess my beef is that in general, anti-musician jokes don’t really gel with me. I feel like musical and artistic tastes are too subjective to ever do so fairly. Nickelback may not be quality music, but I don’t like looking down on people who enjoy it, I suppose.
… Anyway. Love your comic, love your art, usually adore your sense of humor; this joke’s just not up my alley. Thought I’d share that? Haha.
/shuffles away to be a party-pooper somewhere else
Wow! The Nickelback hate is actually really surprising! I actually like nickelback xD anyway ive just started reading this! pretty cool story (so much scene/indie/hipsters/???)
whoa, shots fired much? also i’m really curious as i happen to like nickelback to a degree….why is their rep so far down the shitter? and while i’m on the subject, can anyone tell me what the deal is with linkin park too? why do nickelback and linkin park get shafted so hard everytime i hear about them?
Oh. Fffffffuh-huh-huh-huh-huuuuck.
hahaha nickleback the ugliest band in the world i was thinking he was gonna play creed
i think nickleback and creed are the same band, but with different masks on. like mrs. doubtfire. and i think they’re all just radiohead. fucking thom yorke is playing a gigantic joke on the world.
well yorke knows its a joke, therefore he is like the comedian. so I still respect him
a cruel, cruel comedian…
Ah.. A watchmen reference. Niiice
Fuck Nickleback.
…nice colors though. :]
LMFAO that was the best thing I ever read!!! I hate that band more then any other! that shit will kill you!!!!!!!!
Damn…Nickleback?
Scouts fucked, end of comic.
Bahahaha, we make jokes at Nicklebacks expense all the time.
I don’t think Scout can handle such trendy-top-of-the-charts-y-ness
So win…. Love Nickleback jokes. Maybe this will be enough to get Scout into gear – even if he doesn’t give a damn about himself I don’t think he wants to see Liz bite it.
Daaaam. they blow’d up the Scene Bean! I really REALLY hope they have insurance against that kind of stuff.
also: Lolz @ Nicklebacks expense. I approve.
That nears Hitler levels of darkness. Seriously, this comic is getting a little too dark man…
…Nickleback? Yikes….
Hahahahahahah!!!! Anti-Nickelback insurance: way more expensive than anti-theft or arson insurance, due to the sheer fact of the utter destruction wreaked!
Scott, this is such a solid comic! I’m always anxious to see what’s coming next. I think we’ve got a real gem on our hands. Keep it up, man! 😀
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Ah Nickleback… You suck so so much *sigh *wipes tears of laughter
🙂
Scout! Counter it with Weird Al! HUZZAH!
Ouch, harsh.
Hahahahah Nickleback! Brilliant. I agree.
!!!!!! That’s EPiC. Behold the musical destruction that IS nickelback. haha
damn woulda been so cool if the link was winnie the pooh of bitches
Ouch… And here I thought Nickleback was pretty good.
Nickleback is funded by the devil true story

We forgive you, Canada. You still gave us Shatner. And in my book, that’s pretty alright.
You have a point there. We need to work on making him Governor General, or at the very least a senator (senate seats are appointed, not elected in Canada, which is kinda stupid).
I’d also like to take this time to apologize, as an Oklahoman, for Hinder. Just saying…it wasn’t warranted.
Are YOU down with “the back.”
You made me laugh out loud in a dead quiet lecture.
Man, my ears are bleeding and there isn’t even any music.
welllll….. they’re pretty much screwed
I love how everyone universally hates Nickelback. For the record, even we Canadians hate them, and those talentless losers are from here.
I don’t get how everyone hates them (well almost everyone) but they’re still (I’m guessing) successful… It doesn’t make sense!!!
And Chad Kroeger looks like the damn Paddlepop lion!!
(look it up)

I realize this is 7 years out-of-date, but…
It’s hated because it’s replayed a lot and is similar to any other song in the industry? Like, say, Any Other Song in the Industry? Doesn’t… doesn’t really explain anything.
To be fair, Nickleback is merely Canada’s revenge against us Americans for unleashing the best-forgotten Limp Bizkit upon the world. Just saying…
that said, I LOVE the energy burst the blows out the Scene Bean´s roof that says ‘Shitty music’ That made me crack up, nice addition!
I love the little “OH NO!” faces that come up when he strummed!
This is were it slows down to epic slow-mo as we all start running, screaming and pushing for the door.
There were no survivors.
I like Nickelback…Couldn’t you use another band? 🙁

It’s like he’s Midvalley the Horn Freak from Trigun, but with a guitar.
I like this a lot.
Wow! The Nickelback hate is actually really surprising! I actually like nickelback xD anyway ive just started reading this! pretty cool story (so much scene/indie/hipsters/???)
I hate to say it, but why has nobody pointed out that it’s spelled “Pooh”? **still watches it** sorry, I couldn’t let it pass x)
And the band’s spelled “Nickelback”, FWIW.
No No, that band is copyrighted, haven’t you heard of “Nickleback”? 😉
