Short 78

Metal Man · 06-07-2009, 04:18 PM

Thought I'd make this while I was fiddling with things. I had an alternate idea, but the weird stuff I made for the background in GIMP made for a better joke.

Great short! Timely and relevant, too. When was the last time NC had a comix relating to current NC events in the gaming world? It's definitely good to have.

It made me laugh, but I don't know about the comic

^It's about New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Yoshi's rideable & the Koopalings are back (the latter being Jay's wish).

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

It's a bit subtle, I admit, but that's the limit of the Short format.

WART!

Where's he been, anyway?

Redshirt · 06-08-2009, 02:09 PM

How'd they get the knives off his arms.

Like Mario, he switches back and forth between his normal and 'knives instead of arms' persona.

How he replaces the knives with his arms again, however, is a dark secret.

#79 should be a Shy VS. Shy comic.

Pure gold in black and white.

I thought he was talking about Galaxy 2.

I was talking about Galaxy 2.

The anecdote w/NSMB2 was hinted at, but the question about the floor prevented Fred from mentioning it in full.

I'll figure it in to my schedule. I just didn't want it to look like a cop-out when I eventually did it, since in some ways, Shy vs. Shy strips are easier than other ones.

Although in other ways, they can be very difficult...

Perrin Aybara · 06-09-2009, 09:36 AM

Can I do the next Shy vs Shy? I always love those.

Whoah, how far has it come that Jay has to ASK about making a short

Yes, by all means, make one and send it to me at metal_man88@metalman88.com

And he doesn't specifically have to ask; I'm sure it's just for convenience. So we don't, like, collide or something.

Romplayer · 06-11-2009, 05:11 AM

And he has to send it to your email address instead of bringing it to the site himself?
Has NC now officially changed its owner?

Perrin Aybara · 06-11-2009, 09:14 AM

I can probably upload it to the site myself...

I'll see if I can get one made by the weekend. No promises though. Feel free to work on a new, different short if you like (that goes for anyone...I strongly encourage all to write and submit shorts...).-jay

Metal Man · 06-11-2009, 02:18 PM

I actually have one in queue, so I'll wait (the current short's a bit new, anyway.) If the weekend passes without it, I'll put up that next one, and of course all you have to do is make sure the numbering is right when you do put it up in that case.

And no, NC hasn't changed owners. I was just offering to put it up for Jay if he didn't feel like putting it up himself. At least. I do too many other things to be the 'owner' of NC; all I do is maintain it.

Well, with Yoshi being in both NSMBW and SMG2 I assumed you were talking about both games.

Not that it affects the short at all.
