I just wanted to remind people about this fun parody of 40K and point out the appeal they are running to get money to pay their wife's visa application. Scroll halfway down the page to the PayPal button if you feel motivated to contribute.

This is not an official endorsement. Having been in the same situation I know how much it costs on top of the worry and heartache.

Now why the hell are you going to ask Dakka, a community not so furry friendly, to donate money to a web comic that the majority of the community would deem a heretical and disgusting furry(no, not regular furry but rather something 9001 steps back, a SONIC COMIC) desecration of the Warhammer 40k franchise? Not only that, but the comic is poorly drawn and I highly doubt anyone on Dakka knows the maker and neither could we actually confirm that the he actually needs the money.

BTW, while we're at it, I'm going to head over to a Republican forum and ask for donations to fix Michael Moore's toilet.

Also, wouldn't this comic be illegal seeing that the maker makes money off it and the fact that he's using copyrighted material from both Sega and Gamesworkshop?

I'm gonna have to agree on this one.

If the comic wasn't... furry based... I might have actually taken a longer look than .03 seconds.

That comic sucks. I got myself past the badgers, and actually read the content. Just plain bad.

A man called William Shakesmen once said

"Brevity is the soul of wit"

It basically means don't waste my time, so you've obviously not heard of Shakesman.

Looks terrible, why would I donate money to a 'Furry' Comic?

Situation sucks, but I don't have any money to give, assuming it's even true.

I've actually read the comic before, it's... not the worst webcomic in the world, but I guess that's not saying much, considering how many webcomics there are out there on the net, the overwhelming majority of which are truly awful.


Also LOL @ grown men who play with mandollies LOLing @ people who like funny animals.


Also preemptive LOL @ the guy with a MLP/Warmachine avatar LOLing @ grown men who play with mandollies who LOL @ people who like funny animals.


Also, I can't remember which Dakkanaut I saw use the term "mandollies" first, but all credit for the word goes to that guy.

The art is good. The humour is... well, it's not terribad. But it's furries. This doesn't appeal to me. And I guess some of that could sort of be 40k? I don't know, looks like generic demon #3.

I would assume a 40k strip would be less humour and more.. grimdark?

I take it none of you ever played Sonic The Hedgehog, or read Rupert The Bear books.

Most 40K comic strips I have seen are humorous, funnily enough.

I did play Sonic. I also played UFO Enemy Unknown.
Why is that not in there?

I came.
I saw.
I turned off.

Furries, eurgh.

Well, couldn't care less if the cartoon figures are anthropomorphic animals or not (I mean seriously, why is this an issue so much? Cartoons always used to be anthropomorphic animals.), but I wasn't really taken with the dialogue.

Anthropomorphic cartoon chraectors != furries.
Having said that, what the hell does this have to do with 40k?

I don't see the fuss about the characters being animals. I mean, half the stuff Chuck Jones, Tex Avery and Walt Disney drew were "furries", too.

So, would you say that this comic is a furry comic? My understanding of the terminology as it's being used here is, heh, fuzzy.

No, I agree with you.
Furry implies an elicit/erotic undertone, that is clearly lacking here. Animals have always been used in cartoons, this is no different.

Right, that's what I thought. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

I think there may a be a problem of association of ideas here. Alot of people, US based I think, put sexual connotatins with the word furries. However, others just see them as humanoid animals.

There was a massive thead on this some time ago, and the discussion pretty much boiled down to that.

Personally I have no problem with humanoid animals, but I'd rather 40k was left out of it.

@Purifier: look up Wobbly Model Syndrome webcomic. That's had quite a bit of success and its not what I would call... excessively grimdark. Humour has a place in 40k. In one word: orks.

I feel like if you're gonna call it a 40k comic it should atleast have something that feels 40k. If your characters are from 90s videogames, the art is manga-styled and the dialogue is humerous, where is the 40k?
Besides, I think the furry vs anthro-debate comes from the manga-styled drawing.

Don't get me wrong, I read the f*ck out of that stuff, I mean just look at my avatar, but it isn't 40k, so then you need to make up for it in another area.

There is a difference between those and a bastardizations of such

I think you're a little too butthurt over a third-rate web comic, especially when you use words like "desecrate" and "Warhammer 40,000" in the same sentence.

HERESY!
This must burn!

This I found to be decently amusing, I thoroughly get a kick out of Lothar and Blasphemy (aka humphrey). Can't donate currently as money is really damn tight for me, but I will continue reading.

Oh my God, it's Order of the Stick but in 40k. The humour is just as trite, the art is just as bad and the whole thing is just to cringe for.
That is incredibly awful. But that said, it still has 1 out of 3 from my list. The characters ARE 40k.

Personally, I really like Wobbly Model Syndrome. Exterminatus Now is kind of boring imo.
The drawing is not bad, but the story is more than lacking. If the best part of the comic are the recurring slap-sticks, something is amiss.
It's totally not WH40k though, roughly based on it at most.

I was speaking in 40k terms, just as how people say something is heresy and such

really, I don't care for the comic, just as how I don't care for the countless rule 34's of 40k and such
