Bomberman Generations

Can you believe that there's more than one version of Bomberman for the MSX? You have the MSX port of the original Bomberman, the 3-D remake called "3-D Bomberman", and a port of the Famicom game called "Bomberman Special". 3-D Bomberman was destined to be obscure with a capital O because a 3-D Maze first-person Bomberman game unexpectedly ended up becoming a horror game instead, resulting in the game being Japan-only. As for the MSX game Bomberman Special, it was basically a budget version of the Famicom game specially programmed for the MSX. The game's ending was a disappointment because the Lode Runner reference was removed due to the existence of an MSX version of Lode Runner that was not made by Hudson Soft.

Now we get to the design of the Bomberman player character in both the MSX version of the original game and Bomberman Special. Shinichi Nakamoto found the overalls-clad man in the original Bomberman game to be uninspiring, and felt it would have made more sense if Bomberman's design was based on the enemies from the Famicom version of Lode Runner instead. And thus, the Bomberman we are all familiar with came into existence, and the rest, as they say, is history.

The Devastating Effects of Justice

As disappointing as it sounds, what if it turns out Ash Ketchum's original nemesis Gary Oak and everyone who has humiliated Ash throughout his 25-plus year journey in the Pokemon TV series were the personifications of the Japanese proverb "The nail that sticks out gets hammered down", and calling for the deaths of the humiliators in the name of justice for the underdog protagonist was a Communist conspiracy all along? What if it turns out the death of Gary Oak will not only cause Pallet Town to collapse into chaos as a result of his late father having no successor, but also cause the Miyamotoverse that Gary's namesake Shigeru Miyamoto conceived to perish? And when the Miyamotoverse dies, will Waluigi die with it, or lose his eternal underdog identity and end up with absolutely nothing? Who knows what nightmares will emerge if Gary Oak and all who have humiliated Ash throughout his entire journey were to all die in the name of justice?

Toast To A Better Future

Drinks featured in this comic about toasting to a brighter future, from left to right: Chocolate Milk, Strawberry Milk, Redcurrant Juice, Orange Juice, Green Apple and Grape Juice.

Today marks the 35th Anniversary of the day I came into this unkind world. However, the cruelty that we all have to endure on this fallen Earth will all be drowned by a tsunami of justice when this present Evil Age that has been cruel to many of us finally gets obliterated by Holy Light. And that day is fast approaching amid the current Persian Gulf Crisis.

Even then, let us not be too depressed. Instead, we should encourage each other by various methods of lifting up the mood of others. Suchie-Pai is toasting to a brighter future with various drinks such as chocolate milk, strawberry milk, redcurrant juice, orange juice, and green apple and grape juice in this comic, and we should do likewise no matter how low our morale is.

Thinking of other things other than other ladies 8

Folks, I'm back again with yet another comic about my OCs in a lawyer-friendly version of the "Thinking about other women" meme.

Remember when Kazuya Mishima was announced for the Super Smash Bros Ultimate's Fighters Pass DLC? Some people were questioning if Tekken Advance for the Game Boy Advance and Tekken Tag Tournament 2: Wii U Edition were even enough to get Kazuya in Smash in the first place. Of course, this was not true according to Tekken publisher Bandai Namco, who were involved in the production of Super Smash Bros Ultimate in the first place. It's because they wanted new characters with unique combat styles.

We all know that Dark Type Pokemon are weak against Fighting Type Pokemon. However, if we want a true hard counter to Dark Type Pokemon, there should be Light/Holy Type Pokemon. Unfortunately, Game Freak does not want to listen to Pokemon fans who want Light/Holy Type Pokemon in the games.

While the 5-inch gun is the biggest cannon that can be mounted on a frigate, most frigates have cannons that fire shells that are less than 120mm in diameter. Tanks, on the other hand, have guns that are bigger than those mounted on most frigates and even some destroyers. This may have been the result of missiles replacing big guns in the heavy bombardment role.

On 21 May 2026, Air France and Airbus had their 2023 acquittal overturned and were found guilty of manslaughter. As a result, both Air France and Airbus were fined €225000.

Cricket fans have always been obsessed about England Vs Australia courtesy of The Ashes. This sporting rivalry extended to Rugby via the Rugby World Cup. Soccer, however, is a very different story. England and Australia have yet to face each other in the Soccer World Cup. If they do, they will most likely be facing each other in the Group Stage.

Theoretically, The AH-64 Apache and the A-10 Thunderbolt could sink a Tarantul-class Corvette. The problem, however, would have to be the Tarantul-class corvette's anti-air defenses. Of course, both the Apache's Hellfire missiles and A-10's Maverick missiles would be powerful enough to disable the enemy's weapons. The killing blow, however, would have been the A-10's guided bombs because guided bombs have sunk enemy warships before.

Thinking of other things other than other ladies 7

I'm back once more with yet another comic about my OCs in a lawyer-friendly version of the "Thinking about other women" meme.

It's good that Ferrari finally decided to jump on the Electric Vehicle bandwagon. The big problem, however, is that the Ferrari Luce is so expensive that you could buy two, or possibly three, Porsche Taycans, depending on which version of the Ferrari Luce you are thinking of purchasing.

Back in 2009, Alfa Romeo had a Space Invaders-themed commercial for the Alfa Romeo Mito. What role Taito played in the making of this commercial directed by Alex & Steffen, remains unknown, however.

I'm hoping that Capcom brings back the Car Breaker bonus level from Street Fighter 2 in a future Street Fighter 6 update, and when they do, I'm hoping that either the Pontiac Aztek or the Jaguar Type 00 becomes the target vehicle in Street Fighter 6's version of the Car Breaker bonus level because the Pontiac Aztek was indirectly responsible for the demise of Pontiac, and the Jaguar Type 00 is the product of Jaguar's dismal rebranding that result from their controversial "Copy Nothing" advertisement.

While Alfa Romeo's automobiles are more stylish, Opel's automobiles are superior due to their good quality reliability.

Even before the infamous "Copy Nothing" advertisement that tarnished Jaguar's reputation, Volvo was already far better than Jaguar due to Volvo having better quality reliability and safety standards.

Rare Gems from both the Bargain Bins and the Discount Sales

Remember the comics about the rare goodies you could find in the bargain bins and the discount sales? Well, the PlayStation 2 game Odin Sphere is definitely an uncommon item that can be found in both the bargain bin and the discount sale. Not to mention that the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita versions of its HD Remake Odin Sphere Leifthrasir are also uncommon items that can be found in both the bargain bin and the discount sale...

If this comic had a bonus panel, it would have someone saying "And now, for the three uncommon items you could find in both a bargain bin and a discount sale..." before he takes out a list and say "Oh My Mackerel! It's all Odin Sphere!"

Swimming Pool Matriarch Visual Gag Variations 10

Hey, folks. It's been a while since the previous Matriarch of the Swimming Pool visual gag variations comic. Hopefully this one will be my last Matriarch of the Swimming Pool visual gag variations comic due to creative burnout, family issues, and a world whose turmoil continues to grow.

In December 2025, the Yona of the Dawn manga finally reached its conclusion. The final chapter ended with Yona becoming Queen of Kouka. How's that for a happy ending?

Judging by her medical expertise, resourcefulness, analytical mindset and calm under pressure, Maomao from The Apothecary Diaries would fit well in the Mobile Army Surgical Hospital unit from the TV series M*A*S*H.

I'm very sure the Super Horn from Mario Kart 8 was the product of Professor Elvin Gadd and Dr Crygor being obsessed with ending the infamous Spiny Shell's reign of terror.

Despite their leftist leanings, Mastodon and Bluesky are blocked in Mainland China. Looks like the Communist regime in China is terrified of progressivism...

If there was one major commercial failure that was made by Samsung that surpassed the Nuon, it has to be the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. Before the Samsung Galaxy Note 7's infamous exploding batteries, the biggest failure made by Samsung was the Nuon, a DVD/game console platform that tried too hard to be both a DVD Player and a gaming console just like Sony's PlayStation 2, but ended up a commercial failure. The Samsung Galaxy Note 7, however, took commercial failure to a fiery new level. There were injuries and property damage due to the battery fires. Thankfully, no one died from this fiasco. There was, however, a huge recall due to the fires. As a result, battery safety was drastically improved.

China's aircraft carriers are struggling with combat readiness issues. Some analysts say that Mainland China will have no more aircraft carriers by the time they conquer Taiwan. This is not a good sign for the administration in Beijing because their ambitions for world domination will be shaken to its very foundations if they learn the truth about their aircraft carriers' lack of combat readiness...
