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.

Stamp Out The Vape

Characters' shoes from left to right, starting with the top row:

Row 1: Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Ax Battler (Golden Axe), Tyris Flare (Golden Axe), Sakura Kinomoto (Star Dress) (Cardcaptor Sakura).

Row 2: Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), High Elf Archer (Goblin Slayer), Davis (Little Fighter 2), Conscript (Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3).

In recent months, Singapore has ramped up its anti-vaping campaign. So here is a comic about vapes getting stomped by various characters in the style of an American propaganda poster from World War 1 where Uncle Sam's shoe is stamping out the Kaiser.

Mithril Warhammers United

Characters wielding Old School RuneScape Mithril Warhammers featured from left to right starting with the top row:

Row 1: Amy Rose (Sonic), Lip (Panel de Pon), Yoshi (Super Mario), Red Yoshi (Super Mario), Blue Yoshi (Super Mario), Yellow Yoshi (Super Mario).

Row 2: Hat Kid (A Hat in Time), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Klonoa (Klonoa), Toon Link (The Legend of Zelda), Ryo Sakazaki (The King of Fighters XV Attire) (The King of Fighters).

Row 3: Garfield (Garfield), Edd (Ed Edd N Eddy), Gilius Thunderhead (Golden Axe), Tyris Flare (Golden Axe), Ax Battler (Golden Axe), Simon Belmont (As he appeared in Captain N: The Game Master) (Castlevania).

Row 4: RED Soldier (Team Fortress 2), BLU Soldier (Team Fortress 2), Dirk the Daring (Dragon's Lair), Spelunker (Spelunker), Wynn (Mystery of Atlantis), Lemming (Lemmings).

Yet another comic where characters wielding Old School RuneScape weapons are rising up in united arms against the injustices plaguing the Earth? Looks like justice know no boundaries...

Groin Kicked 2

People kicking the female fencer from the Astyanax, from left to right: Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), Yuko Asou (Valis), Tyris Flare (Golden Axe).

As if the female fencers from the Astyanax having their blouses fall off wasn't bad enough, getting their groins kicked by female characters is going to make life even worse for them. And it doesn't help when female Jaleco characters such as Rit and Suchie-Pai are among the people who are kicking the female fencers' groins...

Kick The Jerk

People kicking Gary Oak, from left to right: Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Tam (Rod Land, Soldam), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), Cayna (In the Land of Leadale), Ryo Sakazaki (The King of Fighters).

Cayna from In the Land of Leadale finally gets to be in my comics? All I can say to her is "Welcome to Neo Retro Union, Cayna!"

First, we had a trilogy of comics where other people kicked Waluigi. Then, it was Bubsy's turn to get kicked by other people. And now, Ash Ketchum's original nemesis Gary Oak is now getting kicked by other people for all the wrongs he did to Ash?!? Looks like justice knows no boundaries...

Then again, Gary Oak deserves to get kicked for tormenting Ash Ketchum and millions of Pokemon players. Even if this arrogant jerk was named after Super Mario Bros creator Shigeru Miyamoto and Ash Ketchum's namesake Satoshi Tajiri was even more of an outsider than Waluigi, this is no excuse for Nintendo to not punish those who have mistreated Ash Ketchum. Justice is justice, and Nintendo has no right to obstruct it. Period.

Bubsy Gets Kicked

People kicking Bubsy, from left to right: Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), Yuko Asou (Valis), Volcana (Ultra Vortek), Spelunker (Spelunker), Wynn (Mystery of Atlantis).

It's sad that Bubsy's creator Michael Berlyn is dead. Bubsy's existence was a mistake, and it doesn't help that Atari now owns Bubsy. Talk about a miserable existence...

At least Atari would be kind enough to let anyone kick Bubsy as long as Fair Use allows it.

Rare Gems from the Bargain Bin

Author's Note: All copyrights for the items featured in this comic go to their respective owners.

While Dragon's Lair was ported to multiple platforms, it was also available as an interactive game for the DVD Player. Yet, almost nobody who owns a DVD Player bothers to get the game, which would make this item a good find if you can find one in a bargain bin, that is.

The Su Chi Pai OVA was originally below average at best when it first came out, but the passage of time has its way of vindicating history, by having Jaleco fans search for a DVD copy of the Su Chi Pai OVA. The Tekken Motion Picture from 1998 was actually good, and it was better than the live action Tekken Movie. And for those who are looking for DVDs of both OVAs, you might find them as rare items in a bargain bin.

Recently, Wii Party and Wii Party U have been getting a nostalgic resurgence through multiple videos posted on YouTube. The Wii Party series was not destined to be the next Mario Party, but it was better than Mario Party in several ways almost no one took note of. It's a huge shame that Wii Party's lifetime sales are less than Nintendo Switch Sports sales figures as at May 2023. Wii Party U's sales figures ended up doing worse than Wii Music, which was a huge shame. No wonder Nintendo started relegating Miis to the sidelines. Maybe they should stop disrespecting their loyal customers if they want to survive...

If you think Soldam was an Arcade exclusive title, then you have not heard of the Game Boy port of Soldam. This Game Boy game would be very hard to find inside the bargain bin, and even if you find one copy, it would be a very expensive item, even if its price tag has a 90% discount on it.

F-Zero GP Legend has to be the last F-Zero game in the series before F-Zero 99, if you do not count the Japan-only F-Zero Climax. Of course the Game Boy Advance F-Zero GP Legend is a game worth getting for any GameCube owner who still has the GameCube's Game Boy Player.

Dragon Longswords United

Characters wielding Old School RuneScape Dragon Longswords featured from left to right starting with the top row:

Row 1: Sakura Kinomoto (Crystal Feather Dress) (Cardcaptor Sakura), Ling Xiaoyu (Tekken), Lemming (Lemmings), Dirk the Daring (Dragon's Lair), Rit (Rod Land, Soldam).

Row 2: Tyris Flare (Golden Axe), Lip (Panel de Pon), Nessa (Pokemon Sword and Shield), Akira Yuki (Virtua Fighter 5 Attire) (Virtua Fighter), Ryo Sakazaki (The King of Fighters XV Attire) (The King of Fighters).

Row 3: Ripple (Magical Chase), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), Ptolemy (The Fairyland Story), Klonoa (Klonoa), Wynn (Mystery of Atlantis).

This comic was made to make certain characters look awesome if they wielded RuneScape's Dragon Longswords. Also, the characters featured in this comic need to rise up in united arms against the injustices plaguing the Earth. Perhaps the Earth would have been a better place by now if we had taken any action against the injustices tormenting the Earth a few decades ago...

Stomp The Jerk

Characters stomping Gary Oak on his back, from left to right, starting with the top row:

Row 1: Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Sakura Kinomoto (Star Dress) (Cardcaptor Sakura), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai).

Row 2: Wynn (Mystery of Atlantis), Volcana (Ultra Vortek), Yuko (Valis).

I do not care if Gary Oak was the son of Pallet Town's mayor, or the fact that this bully was named after Super Mario Bros creator Shigeru Miyamoto. Nintendo is mistreating their customers and classifying some of them as cybercriminals. In retaliation, I decided to draw obscure characters' shoes stomping Gary Oak's back as payback for Nintendo's crackdowns on so-called acts of counterfeiting and intellectual property piracy, and for all the tormenting the arrogant bully did to millions of Pokemon fans worldwide through his bullying of Ash Ketchum. All the characters that are stomping the arrogant bully are more respectable characters because they either fight for justice or just simply dislike Gary Oak because he tormented millions of Pokemon fans worldwide, including myself. In fact, the characters that are stomping the bully are either obscure or semi-obscure characters that deserve more respect from us, especially Ultra Vortek's Volcana. Give some love for Atari characters, especially the obscure ones.

If Nintendo does not deliver any justice for Ash Ketchum, the #BoycottNintendo movement will grow even bigger, and Nintendo is definitely not ready for the biggest boycotts that are yet to come.

Kick The Ijiwaru

Characters kicking Waluigi's rear, from left to right: Rit (Rod Land, Soldam), Suchie-Pai (Suchie-Pai), Lip (Panel de Pon), Sakura Kinomoto (Star Dress) (Cardcaptor Sakura).

Let's face it. Waluigi will never get his day in the spotlight, because his name is an anagram of ijiwaru, which means ill-natured. And such an ill-natured person gets no love from Nintendo that he will never be Player 2 in a Wario Land game, or have his own set of microgames in the WarioWare series, or become a major antagonist in any game where Luigi is the main character, or even have his own game at all. Instead, in this comic, he gets kicked on the rear by more respectable characters who should get more respect from us. No wonder Waluigi was destined to remain an assist trophy in the Super Smash Bros games. His name was not worthy of any respect from us.
