The “crazy-mutant-cyborg-possum-thing” might be down for the count but this story’s just getting on its feet! Hopefully bot will enjoy this, uh, “brief” (sorry, couldn’t resist) victory ‘cuz more troubles are just around the corner. Let’s hope bot has more Poké-boxers handy.
See ya Friday!
Shorts of doom. Doom, I tell you, DOOM!
HA! well, it’s a good thing bot has those things boxed away then, Jim!
and check you out: you just nabbed the Shades of Firsting! second time this month, if i’m not mistaken. congrats and wear them well – these offer protection from any Shorts of Doom that may be thrown at the direction of your head:
😎
And U thought the Pokeball Bra was ridiculous. Does jefbot have any fighting skills?
actually, i find the pokébra fashionable and in good taste, DAS! 😉
and, yep – bot does have some fighting skills. guess he leveled up a bit when he was linked with the Angry Scarf way back when.
I meant “I”. Stupid phone keyboard.
😀
So close again…
Condolences! 😉
only missed it by 2 minutes, ZJ!
Plus a few seconds 😀
for coming second…
Pokéshorts, I choose YOU!
gotta wear ’em all, Insectoid!
Holy crap, his eyes are starting to glow red in the last panel. Is this a new chapter in the legend of the Scrawn?
good catch, Webcomic Addict! as for whether those crimson pupils herald the return of the Angry Scarf or not remains unknown, but we do know that bot fights better when he’s all rage-y, so it’s fortunate he was able to tap into his inner anger. >:)
Now we know that the box contains clothes, I’m seriously expecting some backup in the form of Angry Scarf. XD
if only bot knew where the Scarf went, Shift!
Action! Adventrue! crazy-mutant-cyborg-possum-thing! This story has it all!
i always like a little crazy-mutant-cyborg-possum-thing with my action and adventure, TPC! glad you do, too!
theres a “gotta catch em all” joke in those boxes of boxers, i just know it!!
it took all the restraint i had to not do some sort of “balls” pun with the title for this one, Maesonic!
Morning BOTiverse and welcome to Wednesday!!! Wooooooooo!
Wow, tell me the undies were at least clean? Cause…ew.
mornin’, Pixie! wooo!
and i cannot attest to the cleanliness of the pokéboxers. let’s just pretend they are and leave it at that. 😉
Neeeeeeee loving the updates! Making my dull early morning a bit more interesting one brief covered alien marsupial at a time XD
glad you’re lovin’ the updates, JR! giving a little pep to your morning makes me happy. 🙂
At first, Jefbot aimed too high on his shorter adversary. I find it amazing how many inexperienced fighters make that mistake when fighting shorter adversaries and how many times I as a short person have been able to take advantage of that.
While Jefbot lacks training he more than makes up for it with trickery by blinding the creature with his shorts/underwear then landing the (hopefully) knockout strike. I’ve relied on similar techniques of blinding/distraction to overcome attackers myself. Usually involving throwing coins or screaming like a banshee.
If this fight isn’t over, I’m guessing Jefbot will need to rely more on trickery than fighting skills to come out on top. Though I wouldn’t want to lay bets on that as I see his eyes turned red in the last panel. Possibly from his past merging with the Angry Scarf.
Garsh man, how many times have you gone through dark alleys to know that? 😛
Rainey’s our resident street fighter, ROM!
jefbot would be proud to get that stamp of fighting approval from you, Rainey! and you’re absolutely right: bot’s going to have to rely more on trickery than fighting skills or brute strength. hopefully that and tapping into his inner rage will be enough.
So I just decided to go off technology for a week or so, and then THIS happens?!
I should check jefbot less often, if it’s this way…
But checking jefbot makes my 3/7 of a week!
What do I do?!
~
Great art!
Oh, is that a bokken bot is holding?
And why do I have this feeling that Musashi and an abandoned gaming console had a wild rabies-filled child?
heh. i’ve gotten that reaction quite a bit in emails and comments during the past week or so, ROM! – bot’s life has taken quite a turn recently!
—
yep, bot’s got a bokken. no doubt used as a prop in some early theater he did and thrown in that box of props and costumes.
as for the “wild rabies-filled child” – we’ll soon find out if this theory’s correct!
Hahah, I was telling a friend about ‘bot, until I don’t know why but instead of saying jefbot, I accidentally called him Shooter-Z! xD It would work if he actually shoots with something. xD
i like “Shooter-Z,” ROM! sounds like some anime character from the 90s. 🙂
I want Pokemon boxers :/
Beautiful strip ‘bot.
thanks, Dj! you should get some pokéboxers – as evidenced in today’s strip, they can come in quite handy at times. 🙂
Woo hoo! Nice job, Bot! Way to whack him with your costume sword and baffle him with your boxers. Poke-boxers FTW!
Clearly he understands English and punches rather than bites. He’s an even stranger creature than he at first appeared! And hooray for a giant strip of mutant-cyborg-possum-awesomeness!
woo! yep, bot came through on this one, even without help from a certain mystery girl or alien-hybrid-scarf, Shanna! and yes, that mutant-cyborg-possum-thing does have some strangeness going on. we’ll find out about that strangeness soon…
glad you dug the giant strip! it certainly took a loooong time to make. i’m happy i have the time to do these big strips right now! especially with this storyline. 😀
Hope this ends up being a brief fight. A short battle is always good.
*rimshot*
ha! so much punniness, TCG! love it.
Whoa. Full page action. Love it!
thanks, Saeed! bigger, better, while at the same price as the regular strips! 😉
Nice action! I knew buying vanity boxers would save my life someday!
vanity boxers are always worth it, MC! especially ones of the poké-variety.
In my mind jeffbot became Yoshimitsu, from the soul calibur series..
I imagined him jumping around on his sword, in a sign of victory.
I’m going to read this comic when I get the chance over the new few weeks, but I’m going on vacation, a road trip to Vegas! Then vegas for three days.
I still love your comic absolutely
I always use Yoshimitsu when I play Soul Caliber or Tekken. 🙂
i haven’t played Tekken in a loooong time, TPC! seemed to have missed all of its modern incarnations.
big fan of Yoshimitsu, Satoshieyes! one of my top three fighters from the Soul series. if jefbot could pull off the “sword jumping” victory move, he’d be a force to be reckoned with!
thanks for the love and have fun in Vegas – stay safe and win big! see you when you get back.
Now hes gonna catch him into poqueball.
… or maybe Jefbott will just run away.
probably best for bot to run away, Maryz. preferably into some tall grass, if there’s any nearby. 😉
That thing was probably just grouchy before. Now it’s gonna be pissed. I hope Bot got plenty of practice fighting invisible ninjas with that thing because he’s going to need every ounce of skill he might have in the next few seconds if someone/something doesn’t show up soon.
i think you’re right, Fijiman – jefbot might’ve gotten a lucky shot, and i don’t think the mutant-thing is gonna fall for the pokéboxers trick again!
supposed to throw the pokeballs after you weaken em not as a distraction
you could have caught the rare one-eyed mutant/cyborg possum.
doh! after countless hours of pokémon playing, it’s a shame jefbot made such a rookie mistake, drakeye! he should’ve at least cast sleep on the thing first.
Seriously celebrating the new update schedule! And what IS this foul creature? (Besides rad as heck.)
*sits by the computer and stays tuned*
i’m happy that you’re happy about the new schedule, Takla! as for the “foul creature,” well, you know what i’m gonna say: stay tuned. 😉
So Pokemon are good for something other than aneurysms? Good to know!
“Boxerchu, I pick you!”
if only bot could capture that thing in a pokéball, Sarah W – that would make his life a lot easier!
Gotcha! Crazy-mutant-cyborg-possum thing was caught! Would you like to give it a nickname?
Also, I’m liking the three day a week update schedual and longer comics. That means even more Jefbot every week!
heheh. maybe “fred” or “gus” would be a good name for him, GB! of course, bot should probably just store him on Bill’s PC – wouldn’t want him getting out and wreaking havoc again. 😉
and glad you’re liking the bigger comics and schedule! woo!
Need to get in better touch with your samurai side there, Jefbot.
’tis true, Bender_Sastre. or at least go more ninja on the next nasty, mutated creature that breaks into his place.
Also, so much for the cleaning deposit.
yup. the Cornfather ain’t gonna be happy.
Looks like he failed to…
“Catch ’em all.”
…Also, is that red glowy eyes of DEATH AND DOOOOOOOOOOOOOM?
Well, seems Bot’s got the general idea. But where’s Cell? This is the kind of craziness she gets off on isn’t it?
Bot, kill it, skin it, and wear the hide as a cape!
I honestly doubt that it was the whack from Jefbot’s cosplay Katana caused that little X
