The Envelope (We’re Pushin It) Strip
Yeah, I was watching some Chappelle’s Show when I wrote this… seeing how a lot of Tito is based on Charlie Murphy’s character in CB4, it it only fair that Tito would swipe a Charlie Murphy line. The original punch was, “…and beat off like its going out of style”, but I think this worked better. The grizzly bear line from Pepper was a last minute addition too, and it fits. Chappelle admits to swiping a lot of material himself, to turnabout it fair play, Dave.
I don’t have too much to add today, other than sorry for that third panel. It turned out just awful, but this happens.
I was pleased with how the “Evolution of Sydney” picture got some comments, so here is the same thing, with Aikida…
Not to be bland, but I am partial to the 2008 Aikida, though I’d go with 2004 if pressed for a second favourite, not just for looks, but for the context of the character at that time and in that strip in particular.
So which was your favourite Aikida? And yes, I know I left the demon version of Aikida out. As visually appealing as she was, it was really a different character, so I removed it from contention.
Come back Wednesday.
EDIT: Fixed a grammar error in the fourth panel. (How did I miss that? Ouch)

Sometimes I think this comic should be called “No fat chicks”.
Seriously though, its great. I’d really like to see this iteration of these characters adventures come to a conclusion.

Hmm, my favorite Aikida, hmm, probably the one with the biggest tits…………wait a sec…..

I used to be a fan of the old work, glad to see the comic back to running. AS well, I read through the peperwood archives, whyd u ever stop that? it was some really great writing, I would be severly content if it ever got continued.

I really enjoy your art-style, but the humor even bets that, esp. Pan.4 was great, I know exactly what they mean. Had a very similar discussion with a buddy of mine.

Favorite Aikida? 2006 one. For sure. But the really cool thing about Aikida is her personality, her wits and in-your-face attitude.

BTW, Fenris: Your site needs a favicon! Hate that basic icon in my bookmark bar. ;)

Random, I stopped doing Pepperwood because while people often claim they loved it now, it was doing crap for traffic. I did enjoy it though, and want to incorporate some of that style into the present Aikida run.
As for the favicon, I guess it is something to look at later.

OK I loved this strip, hilarious because I could actually see it going down in real life and the dialog was so fitting.
I’m kinda liking the 2005 Akida.
July 7th, 2008 at 10:16 pm
Oh man, that was awesome. But yeah, the 2006 Aikida’s my fave.
July 8th, 2008 at 11:19 am
I like the 04-06 and ’08 Aikidas. Just sayin’.
Funny. As. Hell.
July 8th, 2008 at 1:20 pm
06 was definitely the best.
July 8th, 2008 at 6:25 pm
howdy…longtime fan, personally I’m leaning towards 02 or 04 aikida. also I had no idea until a little bit ago that the age of consent in canada was 16…interesting. I also like the new sydney, an interesting look
July 8th, 2008 at 11:43 pm
I like the 04-current versions… but I like the hair on the 06 best.
personally.
July 9th, 2008 at 7:58 am
Like the 2004 aikida more.
It fits well her personality and she had a lot of style.
I do not hate the 2008 either.

Eat the crow bitch!
…I don’t want to eat the crow…
EAT IT!

Was the grammar problem “what do to with”? Because it still seems to be there, in the fourth panel.
July 15th, 2008 at 2:46 pm
No, that is understandable poor grammar. There was a straight up error in the panel that was fixed.
August 13th, 2008 at 10:03 am
josh, you still might want to change “do to with” to “to do with”…. I obviously can’t be 100% sure, but I don’t think you meant to type it that way. it’s like saying “I want do to judo.” it seems like it must be a typo. That’s all Gillsing was saying.
August 13th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
You’re right, I am actually unsure how I missed that after it was even pointed out to me. I’ll blame Aaron.
August 31st, 2008 at 6:11 pm
Damn! How can any guy think Syd is hot? Waaaaay too skinny in my opinion.
September 11th, 2008 at 9:14 pm
Edited the dialogue in panel four to make it quite clear, that yes, its a Chappelle quote. Thanks to 127,937 internet retards for trying to imply that I was ripping him off. Now it should be quite clear that I was.
Read a newspost before wasting your time, please. Also, thanks for the traffic!

I don’t care what anybody says, I LOVE it! MORE!!! The girl is smokin hot (perfect!), the line is still funny even if it IS recycled. Keep pushin it. I actually had this happen to me earlier this summer. Epic masturbation session.
