#209 – Comics
I read comics a lot from about 1985-1990. I would spend all my money on them. I first got into comics because of the comic store that opened up down the street from me. It closed after a few years but that didn’t stop me. I started riding my bike to the next town over to get my comic fix. I still have fond memories of that ride home, and the anticipation of reading the books I just picked up.

Blah blah mesa first?
Hmm, I love the whole play on taste well done
What comic is it he is chewing on, I dont recognize it at all.

That doesnt look very filling.

BLASPHIMER!!! You have desacrated something sacred. I don’t care if you like the taste, eating the comics is just plain wrong.

Science Fiction tastes like chicken!

Wow, I found out that Mystery comics taste like beef today. Love the comic and the use of word play.

Do you think if I were to have a comic book full of Biff I would get kicked out of stores?
I mean come on how can you hate Biff, it’s like a god helping us from doing stuff to find out the results. If it wasn’t for him I would never have started unplugging my electric tape dispensor.

maybe he thought eating the online ones was getting costly in computers.

I just noticed that despite all the eating that Biff does (nonsoggy cereal, comics, whatever he was eating in the second comic with the grease fire), we’ve never seen Biff’s mouth open. I wonder what it looks like, considering that some of it isn’t on his face…

I didn’t actually notice the blatantly obvious bite mark at first. But oh how I laughed when I did.
March 23rd, 2007 at 4:34 pm
I still want to know who kicks him out.

Also Lucretil, We also havent seen him on the toilet, do you want that? If we get any toilet jokes it is now your fault.
March 23rd, 2007 at 4:50 pm
Lucretiel, you must have forgotten this.
March 23rd, 2007 at 10:24 pm
Well, at least he’s getting plenty of fiber . . .

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles issue #1, right? Wicked. Is that because the new movie came out today?
March 24th, 2007 at 9:16 am
Ding ding ding ding ding ding! TyGuy gets the gold star.
The funny thing is that I completely forgot about the new movie until after I posted the comic. I chose that one for Biff to be eating because it was the most important comic I owned as a kid.

Comic books: the potato chip of the reading world. You can’t eat…er, read just one.
March 25th, 2007 at 12:10 am
I find they mostly taste like paper
o_O O_o o_o O_O

Good for you! The nearer the comic shop is, the better the anticipation.
March 25th, 2007 at 4:34 am
i like how he is looking up and not at the bitten comic. it reminds me of when a dog chews up something it shouldn’t and there’s bits of stuff everywhere around them and you say, “what did you do?!” they get that ‘i don’t know what your talking about’ expression and look away. at least mine did anyway. great comic, as always chris.
March 25th, 2007 at 7:56 am
this leaves a question,how does he taste online comics. wheni\ i just saw the picture and not the caption i thought it would say somthing like this”the comic tasted good until he got to the perfume sample” hay chris you know how you did “this” to take us to one of your rescent comics,how do you do that

What would manga taste like? Shushi or pocky? Or tonkatsu, maybe?
May 25th, 2007 at 6:20 pm
i love lame puns
May 30th, 2007 at 2:06 pm
Holy crap hes eating the first issue of Ninja Turtles!!
GET HIM!!!!

I love comics and manga. For comics, the most recent I’ve read was Nighthawk, or something like that. For manga, it’s Love Hina.
And by the way: *charges to tackle biff, but smacks into computer screen*

December 20th, 2007 at 2:51 pm
hmmm…
40 days of night? pherhaps.

The aftertaste is awful.
Ask me how I know.
May 17th, 2009 at 2:42 pm
Okay I need to know how the hell you know that comics have a bad aftertaste… I mean what would possess you to eat comics?
February 27th, 2010 at 12:20 am
is that what I think it is?! *compares to my anniversary year/free comic book day promo issue* …is he eating the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic?
