The current story arc started with this strip: A New Adventure.
She wanted to get rid of that old phone with an analog keypad anyway.
We’re still looking for suggestions for Sandra and Woo merchandise.
- Larisa: RAAAAAAAAAA
- Cloud: Did you know that the world record for throwing a cell phone is 95.83 meters?
- Larisa: Amateurs.
|
And the record for a throw of a cellphone by a really pissed red head is well over a kilometer.
She threw so hard her hand came off
“Mommy! I want a cell phone!”
“No, you have to earn the money to buy one yourself. Everything you want isn’t going to just fall out of the sky because you…” *BAM*
“Looks like cheap Chinese merchandise is blasting off again!”
And now they don’t have the option to combine a working battery and a working cellphone anymore…
@ AmbiValent:
That’s not an adventure-game where you can combine everything ;-).
I’d suggest selling T-shirts, maybe some mouse pads, if you’ve got any skill/can pay enough, some Woo Plushes wouldn’t be that hard to sell.
Also the comic in Dead Tree Format.
Becareful Larissa, in comedy comics there’s an unwritten law when you throw something in a forest there’s a 50/50 chance it will hit a sleeping bear, waking him up and making him angry, followed by comical running and screaming by the whole casts.
But we have Cloud! he’ll whip out a branch and beat the crap out of that bear, drooping 3X Bear Skins, 2X Raw Meats, Pendant of Bear (+5 attack, +1 slash attack active skill, +15 defense, +1 tough skin passive skill, -3 Speed) and $35 (Tax deducted)
Larisa RAGE! I think she’s gonna hit one of Cloud’s Mom’s friends in Burma…
I love Larisa’s rage in the second panel! I wonder why Cloud know the world record for a thrown cell-phone lol.
@ JZ: The comic was put into Dead Tree format, but they had to take it down because it didn’t sell enough.
@ AckAckAck: What if it lands on one of the predators that we’ve seen chasing Sid?
There’s actually a trick using some tinfoil and a match to give a cell phone battery a short charge. Of course, with the phone way out in the woods, that’s not going to help much.
China has spaceshuttles? That thing just got in a low orbit…
Other question: Why does Cloud know that exact value?
I mean: I’m also a walking encyclopedia of weird (and mostly useless) knowledge, but this? o_Ô
Oh, and one last thing:
I always thought Larisa is a fire-domain Cleric, a fire crazed Druid or a Red Dragon Sorceress but now I must also consider the barbarian class…
If I get hit by a cell phone, Larisa, I will not be amused.
You Will Most Probably Regret That Later Larisa. . .
Cant Wait Till The Next Page. . ! 😀
Whoa, why does it say “March 10th” above? ._. Its Wednesday.
@ Frank:
Nope, it have to be a bear, why? because there’ll be an obligatory standing angry bear scene, optional scene where one of the cast start wetting his/her pant (in animated form you can add a sudden comical crying, see Johnny Bravo), followed with running as fast as they can, flailing arms and screaming by one or more casts.
Also noted that people believe that bear is not fast enough to actually catch someone, even though in reality they can run faster than a horse in short distance.
I think I need to create a tvtrope page for this running and screaming segment, but my English is lacking, need someone with better English than I do, someone want to volunteered to do this?
This might be me being dumb, but I swear Sandra’s been missing for a while…
Super Saiyan Larisa anyone?
…and the phone hits a plane, forcing it to crash land, which in turn prompts the sending of a rescue team, and the day is saved!
wonder what her reaction to haveing no incilen would be. other then keeling over dead of corse.
And in another comic, an adventuring party is saved when a projectile shaped like a cell phone comes out of nowhere and knocks out the ultimate evil
For the American readers who don’t know the conversion from metric, that’s 314.4 feet. 🙂

Or the plane crash land into a weird island, with creatures like black smoke monster and polar bear, and a hatch with weird numbers on it 😉

Yep, Larissa threw it so hard it break transdimensional wall and it appear in an alternate universe where a group of adventurers led by Cloud trying to defeat an ultimate evil, the cellphone interrupt a summoning process and give a chance for Cloud to deliver his Omni Slash that proven fatal.
@ JZ:
I don’t know what Dead Tree is, but I would definitely pay for a Woo plushy. Maybe a Shadow one too. And that one strip of Woo escaping from the painting would make an excellent poster.
@AckAckAck:
Wait, so Larisa is actually Jacob? That… actually would be a lot more satisfying than how Lost really turned out.
Holy cow, I can hear the “whoosh-weet-weet” sound produced by the phone as it sails through the air.
Littering is illegal. And discarded cell phones leach chemicals that are toxic enough to qualify the phones as hazardous waste. Not a good thing to hurl into a forest, Larisa!
And still no sign of Sandra…
Ok, I saw it today, and read it every single comic…
just awesome…
im waiting for MOAR!!!
New world record set by eleven year old girl. What’s her secret you ask? No she isn’t on steroids. She’s on pure uncontrollable rage!
Ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to invite you to witness an historical event, which is the birth of a new discipline in olympic games: the Cell Phone Throw. Aaaand… we have already a new record: 120.95 meters made by a girl named Larissa. Hope that it won’t discourage the next participants!
……………………………………
This was Unknownman, signing off. Good Evevening, Ladies and Gentlemen. ¨^v^¨
wow. I actually got a scenario – part of it anyway – right! now lets see…..
Sandra is lost! The group must travel through uncharted woods led by a distraught woo and a determined cloud to find the missing heroine! Can Larisa keep her hands to herself long enough to be of any help? Find out in the next installation!
Maybe the cellphone lands on/near sandra or a rescue group?
i would like to retract my previous comment on the last page…it is broke
well at least she didn’t burn down the forest in anger
@ TKuja1:
HAHA
Okay, am I the only one wondering where Sandra is?

Thanks, I was going to convert that when I got to the office. Good thing about being an accountant, conversion tables for almost anything. 🙂
I wonder if Cloud can tell us the Guinness record for throwing a cell-phone and having it land in tact?
RE: Thrown Phones
There’s another law of cartoon/comic physics, that such things have a tendency to appear several panels/moments later, having gone through a bizarre series of bounces and slides, to hit the person who threw it in the back of the head at an awkward moment. :p Though if Smokey Bear makes an appearance (see the note on ad placement elsewhere) then we’ll know they’re ok.
Question is where did Sandra go? Is she elsewhere along the bank? On the opposite shore? None of Woo’s friends know about her, except for Shadow (don’t remember if they’ve been formally introduced though) so it could be interesting if she is huddled up somewhere, critters around her snarling, she calls to Woo for help (who does hear but has to make a major dash to get to her) meantime, the critters surrounding her change their manner, inexplicably…never underestimate such a scene. Woo could arrive ready to fight only to find her draped warmly by, say, Shadow and family with others nearby for warmth, some fruit piled up near here while the European squirrel is dropping grapes into her mouth or something. Woo’s reaction to that scenario could be hilarious. 😀
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!
Where is Sandra ?
Oh my angry Larisa is even scarier then I remembered. O_o”
Heh that cell throwing competition is just funny I love it. XD BTW wow you got everything right about it, the angle, the spin and I just found the actual record so nice job Novil! Boy those brits had no idea who’re they messign with here. XD
Am I the only one wondering where the crap Harvey is?
And I know like a million people said this before, but…
WHAT THE CRAP HAPPENED TO SANDRA!?
Larisa was just trying to get her cellphone…
*sunglasses*
More AIR time.
YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH
@ Wolfehtaco:
timezones, both the writer and artist live in GMT+ timezone for example the writer lives in germany, germany is GMT+1
My guess: They’ll find Sandra washed up on shore, unconsious. Cloud’ll try and do CPR, but one of the other three will do it instead. Or he’ll actually be able to “kiss” her, but it won’t count.
In 8 years, i think this is the first thing that gave me the motivation to vote for every day (even doing it twice by mistake sometimes).
Keep going, this is just absolutely great.
anyone wondering where sandra is? she is the only one that actually got lost and i say harvey and larisa met with cloud and harvey left to find sandra
So i just read the entire comic to date (bad day and i ran across it for the first time) and after it all i love it but am still confused as to where they are. As in what country do they live in?
@ Zeronikku:
It was raining, so Larisa has to burn down her wish for now 🙂
