Serious Repercussions

Author's Note: This comic was made using the Gru's Plan meme from Despicable Me.

In defense of John Bull, a Great False Church made England burn Joan of Arc to death in the first place.

If there was anything that will make John Bull and Marianne argue with each other, it would have been the inquiry on the death of Joan of Arc. The official inquiries are still divided over who's responsible for her death. France says that England should apologize for executing Joan of Arc, while England denies such accusations as libel and insists that a Great False Church made them execute her in the first place. At the end of the day, that Great False Church will get judged by Christ's Second Coming, essentially giving Joan of Arc justice and acquitting England of the war crime of burning her to death.

Video Games that belong in a recycle bin

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

Not all video games of yesteryear are worth collecting. Some of them are so horrendous that they should be dumped into an E-Waste recycle bin. Here are just seven games that were better off in a recycle bin.

Bubsy 3D: This infamous game caused the death of a mediocre mascot's career. Not even The Woolies Strike Back or Atari's acquisition of Bubsy could revive the franchise.

Awesome Possum: Definitely the worst Sega Genesis game in existence, although Instruments of Chaos starring Young Indiana Jones would have been its biggest rival for that disgraceful title.

Superman 64: A horrible Nintendo 64 game that tarnished the reputation of superhero video games.

Street Fighter (Amiga version): A terrible port of a mediocre arcade game, and Ken wasn't even in this port of the original Street Fighter.

Mortal Kombat Advance: Probably the worst game in the history of the Mortal Kombat series, although it would have to contend with the Game.com port of Mortal Kombat Trilogy for the worst game in Mortal Kombat history.

Escape From Bug Island: A game so bad that some shovelware titles for the Wii are better than this abomination. Even more insulting is the fact that this game was a launch title for the Wii in Japan.

Babylon's Fall: A dumpster fire that would make you want to shut your wallets on Square Enix. It was so horrible that the servers had to close down after less than a year, and when that announcement was made, video game stores wanted people to take it off their hands for free, meaning any thief who steals a copy of Babylon's Fall without getting arrested for theft will be left in despair when the servers closed its doors for good because Babylon's Fall is no longer playable after its servers closed down.

Prophetical Bad Dreams

In the wake of depressing news coming in faster than hypersonic missiles, we must cling on to the hope that Jesus Christ is coming back to end the present nightmare we are in right now. We must also remember that the days leading up to the Great Tribulation will be like the days of Noah, as well as the prophecies speaking about a rivalry between the Beast regime and a conglomerate of rogue states threatening to destroy the world until no flesh is saved alive unless they get crushed by the huge rock that demolished the statue of Daniel 2.

Too Late for the Cold War

Some Allied military hardware that were conceived during the Cold War entered service after the Cold War ended when Russia threw in the towel after the Soviet Union collapsed. Here are just seven military vehicles of the Allied Nations that entered military service after the Cold War ended in 1991.

If there was anything Britain's Challenger 2, France's Leclerc and Italy's C1 Ariete main battle tanks (MBTs) have in common, it's being conceived during the Cold War only to enter service with their respective countries after the Cold War ended.

The Seawolf-class submarines of the United States Navy (USN) were conceived with the possibility of a Russo-American War in mind. However, problems during construction meant the commissioning of the first ship of the class was delayed until 1997. By then, Russia had already admitted defeat.

The first keel for Canada's Halifax-class frigates was laid down in 1987, but HMCS Halifax, the first ship in the class, was not commissioned until 1992, meaning the Halifax-class frigates arrived too late for the Cold War, which ended at the end of 1991.

Australia's Collins-class submarines were the result of proposals to replace the Oberon-class submarines in the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) in 1978. Like the American Seawolf-class submarines, the Collins-class submarines encountered construction problems as well. By the time HMAS Collins was commissioned, the Cold War was long over.

Taiwan's F-CK-1 Ching-kuo fighter jets had China as an opponent in mind when it had its first flight in 1989. When it entered service in 1992, the Cold War was already over by then, and China acknowledged that the Soviet Union had already collapsed, so technically, the F-CK-1 Ching-kuo fighter jets entered service after Russia threw in the towel.

Now with Russia, China and all their other battle buddies itching to go to war (Russia has already invaded Ukraine), these vehicles that arrived too late for the Cold War may just see real combat action (Challenger 2 tanks have fought in Iraq and are battling enemies in the war in Ukraine, while Leclerc tanks in UAE service have intervened in Yemen). Not to mention that all of these vehicles appear in the Daisenryaku series of military strategy video games.

Player-Owned Ports Memories (Part 2)

What are your memories of RuneScape's Player-Owned Ports voyages? Mine would have been helping Ling the Assassin to get rid of Thalassia's cruel Khan Tombi, which is exactly what one of Captain Rodney's navy buddies said. Of course Captain Rodney had to mention the voyages revolving around the island of Hyu-Ji. After all, the Hyu-Ji storyline has the final story voyage revolve around defending the island from an enemy coalition.

Player-Owned Ports Memories (Part 1)

Do you remember the days when we gave all kinds of wacky different names to our ships in RuneScape's Player-Owned Ports? What about naming our Player-Owned Ports ships after actual ships of the United Kingdom's Royal Navy or the United States Navy? Those were the glory days...

For those wondering what ships Captain Rodney and his navy buddies are referring to, HMS Diamond, HMS Dragon, HMS Ocean and HMS Illustrious are Royal Navy ships that were in active service as at 6/6/2012, while USS Enterprise, USS Ranger, USS Fletcher, USS King, USS Narwhal, USS Shark, USS Jack and USS Swordfish are US Navy ships that were in active service as at 6/6/1988.

Existing in the Same Century

Fun Fact: The last Sega console and the last dynasty of the Chinese monarchy both existed in the same century. In fact, the Qing Dynasty collapsed in 1912, while the Sega Dreamcast was released in Japan at the end of November 1998.

It's crazy to think about historical events that happened within the same century. For example, the 20th Century witnessed the commissioning of the 1906 version of HMS Dreadnought and the commissioning of the first Arleigh Burke-class destroyer within the same century. However, we must remember that within less than 100 years, we went from not being able to fly to the very last Sega console, the Dreamcast, launching in North America.

On a side note, Happy 25th Anniversary, Sega Dreamcast!
