Weapon Brown 171

Welcome back, my fan base. At least, I hope my fanbase is reading this. One never knows how many people one will lose during a hiatus. It’s like that story of the Good Shepherd: one of his little lambs wanders away, and he wants so badly to look for him, but he knows that if he leaves his flock they all may be eaten by wolves! And he has to get the sheep to market so that he can save his farm! So, sorry little lamb… s’what you get for being stupid and weak. But that doesn’t mean that it’s not sad a little.

(And then he hears the bleeting from the woods. He knows that the orcs got him. Brrrr.)

Well, if the orcs didn’t get you, thanks for returning! The final Weapon Brown arc has begun, with the throwdown of throwdowns about to commence. You were wise to return! Now start hitting that F5 key and don’t stop until your index finger is a single bloody knuckle!

    WELCOME BACK, WEAPON BROWN! :D You have been missed. :’)

    Is this the famous bar comic that everyone else got to see when they ordered WB!?

  3. Jack Munroe

    ……And the shakes begin to subside.

    The mysterious man known only as Mr Captcha walked into the squalid hovel that passed for a bar. “Crimeny.” He thought. “Why are the meets always in the skid marks on the underwear of this town?” walking up to the barkeep, he ordered a tall glass of goat milk.
    ” You must be the contact” a sultry voice spoke behind him “I’m Vancitur. “

  4. Shea

    Is it too early to wonder who we see there (besides obviously calv.1n)?

    … Mr. Captcha turned to get a glimpse of his contact. “Do you have the location?” he asked, searching her face.

    “It will be underneath the parking lot of the stadium,” Vancitur said very slowly. “It was the only place where we could find 90,000 types of Univan.”

    it’s a diner, can Ziggy be far behind?

  6. Brandi

    That’s Ziggy being kicked out, isn’t it?

    Gooooooooood mooooorning, Weapon BROWNNN!!!!

    Also, I ate an orc this morning on the way to this site. He was tasty. Fried like bacon. The other other other white meat.

    Captcha is confused: you normally see a mauling from bears, not a malling from Valley girls.

    Morning Savics is the way the nice little Captcha greeted the day!
    That’s gotta be Ziggy there. The whole no pants schtick gives it away. Welcome back Weapon Brown! Didn’t remember the diner being named Rosie’s though, but that’s why JY is the man of the obscure references.

    You have a fan base. I started hitting F5 at 11:00 last night… just in case…

    The barman is Pasquale from Rose is Rose, if I’m not mistaken. I’m guessing the name of the bar is a reference to the strip too, and maybe Pasquale’s rattlesnake tattoo is a callback to his mom’s “Vicky the Biker Chick” persona (she liked rattlesnake chili).

    Glad to see WB return. Coffee Break and Guest Week were both great, but waiting for the Cyber Augmented Legionnaire has been driving me nuts.

    Nice to see calv.1n arriving in Spaceman Spiff’s ship. Can’t wait to see the settings on the WB incarnation of the Death Ray Blaster!

  12. Butterfly

    Yay, Pasquale and Ziggy!

  13. Don

    I’m surprised punx hasn’t chimed in on this yet. He’s usually the one in the greatest withdrawl. It’s good to have you back, Chuck.

  14. Baughbe

    I’m … so … happy…
    Let the Carnage begin!

  15. RevFitz

    REJOICE!

  16. punx

    Hey, my post from like 1 this morning got deleted, NO FAIR!

  17. punx

    Gee, Don, I didn’t know you cared “eyelashes fluttering”

    Maybe my post got deleted because I made a mention of how I managed to survive WBDT’s, though if it was because of that, this place isn’t as cool as I thought…..plus it was a JOKE :(

  18. DarkMyste

    yes, certainly rejoice….

    for bad things are about to happen

  19. JY

    @Punx-

    I had to delete and remake the entire post. It wasn’t anything personal, although… I do get a giddy little thrill putting you through my head games.

    Captcha is really putting me through my paces: Grossierete Tweeruee

  20. punx

    Ziguana?

  21. pakopako

    Hey, a diner in post-Apocolyptica! I wonder what food they have. Rat-loaf, rat-pie, rat-pudding, braised pig rat… Hmm. Maybe something without so much rat in it. (The spaghetti doesn’t have that MUCH rat in it…)

    Wait. Final arc you say?

    funflo war,

  22. Shea

    … wow, it just occurred to me that Pasqual might just *totally* have saved Ziggy’s life.

    Unless Something Spiff-Y This Way Comes that is …

    (as M. Captcha wandered down to the depths of the parking lot, he was pulled up short by a “hist” sound from between two battered VW vans. “K. Londike is the name,” the disembodied voice said. “Dis … look … L!!” came the abrupt, choppy syllables. Captcha looked down to see a slowly expanding puddle …)

    @Red — the snake tattoo has the grin and the long fangs of Snake, from the comic variously known as “Snake” or “Snake Tales”. Not saying you’re wrong about the Biker Chick reference, though — we probably have here what Lewis Carroll would have called a portmanteau. . .

  24. Solarbird

    Yay! I enjoyed Coffee Break more than I expected to (and Guest Week was actually all kinds of fun) but I’ve been looking forward to some more Weapon Brown. ^_^

  25. sentroller

    I’m pondering what did “Ziggy” did to get tossed out. And welcome back JY, you are “The Weapon”

  26. Sherlock_Watson

    @sentroller: Maybe the place had a sign that said “No pants, no service.”

    Beginning of the final arc, and already we have “Ziggy,” “Rose Is Rose,” and “Snake Tales.” Can’t wait to see what other comics will be referenced before it’s all over. Rupert Bear and Tiger Tim were already made into monsters in volume 2 of “League of Extraordinary Gentlemen,” but there’s no reason they can’t appear here too.

    – Captcha loves fictional words: coritle fantastic.

    @ sentroller

    My guess? He stuck his dick in the mashed potatoes.

    It wasn’t that kind of place, and the owner saw to it he found out.

  28. llkjdfslkj

    final weapon brown arc?

    please don’t stop Chuck’s adventures after this. Please!!?

  29. punx

    @pakopako: and I was just watching Python the other day…..LOL
