04.26.2011 - This is going to be a Chell of a drive

Talk about today's strip, or anything about the comic in general. You can also talk about any of the characters... but don't expect a response. They're FICTIONAL, you guys... sheesh. :)

Portals 2011, intro music by the Rolling Stones... "start me up..."

Does the Dreamcast have "maim" support? (I know it was MAME, but it is a play on words)

The amount of squee that was emitted when I saw this comic was phenomenal. Look out for that in headlines around the world. But I salute you, Greg; you have run, literally run up my respect ladder. Especially when I note how similar Tony's facility is to Black Mesa (come on, it's a tram system). Excuse moi, I has to go squee again.

Well, it's kind of a mixture of black mesa, aperture labs, and the warehouse from Raiders of the Lost Ark. :D And I'm still pulling stuff out of my ass for this storyline.

We have top men on it now. Who? TOP... MEN.

As for Tony's lab, there's a secret entrance consisting of a shed in the middle of wheat field, isn't there?

Which used to be Cleveland. Although I don't know why would you want to build a secret base near Cleveland.

SPACE ships. Not water ships. Tony doesn't give a crap about water ships. Plus, there's big giant bay doors over the top of all the construction bays.

Well I was assuming spaceships, but what I want to see is how these new ones will be different from ones that he has built before (aside from being bigger).
