2006-01-20: Seasonal Pastimes: Summer
Brrrr
Is it just me or is it really cold today?
Ha. Ha.
This comic is in the storyline:
- Old Comics
The site started with "cleaned up" comics from my old sketchbooks, which go back almost fifteen years. Eventually I ran out and had to come up with new things! That was a terrifying moment.
Text transcript
Rabid: It is an endlessly hot summer! Rabish: Yeah -- that is an observable fact. How can we pass the time? Rabid: With a seasonally appropriate game! Rabid: As a first example, we could play the game "Water Balloon Fight", where we threaten & ultimately attack each other with thin skins of water. Invigoratin' and excitin' and refreshin' all in one! Rabish: That sounds lovely! I have some suitable balloons at home! Rabid: The taps are all dry! Rabish: Oh -- the chronic liquid shortage... maybe if we use our sweat and spit! Rabid: That should work! Rabid: There... I... filled a... balloon... wow it's hot... so... thirsty... Rabish: I don't... have the strength... to attack you... Dr Quickly: Maybe you two should try playing a different game, something cooler... how about SPACE TRAVEL?! Rabid: Hey even just this climate-controlled space ferry is a change for the better! Rabish: So, Doc, how do you play this? How do you win? What's the goal? Dr Quickly: Why -- the goal is to SURVIVE!! BLAST OFF!! <<beep>> <<FOOM>> [[The rocket flies into the huge, hot sun.]] <<SPLASH!>> Rabid and Rabish: AAAUGH!
