#678 – Magma
Stuffed animals are equally good at being loved companions and a horde of evil minions that can only be stopped by the crushing weight of rock and debris sent tumbling onto them as you destroy the secret sub-volcanic hideout of your elusive arch nemesis that once again narrowly escaped the mighty grip of justice.
Also, here’s a guest comic I did for Dueling Analogs.

Destroyed his pillow fort?

What I find great about this week is the subtle irony. Biff owns a space ship and does everything but go to the moon to play golf yet here he has been spending a week dressing up like a superhero. Literally the last thing he did before dressing up as Super Biff was destroying an alien homeworld.

I wonder if Biff ever pretends to be vulnerable.

When me and my brothers were kids, rarely did we sit on the couch (always the floor). The couch was purely for making pillow forts and gymnastics.

Biff does couch therapy…victory over the cushion aliens that lurk in his mind.

@MadDavid – That concept is so sad that I think I’d worry for Biff’s mental health.

@Dan – I like your analysis.

lol

Ahh, the cushion fort! Refuge of my youth! I used to pretend to be a gypsy fortune-teller – even had a bandana for it. And big hoop earrings. And I used to pinch my mother’s eyeliner.
Suddenly, I feel like making a cushion fort again.

Ah, I love the power-fantasies… Biff makes a wonderful Walter Mitty.

I remember using my larger stuffed animals as building materials on occasions when I ran out of pillows….
I also remember that I had two monkey beanie babies, one of which was my zodiac one (which I named tigereye) and the other which was old and boring looking. The old boring looking one was tigereye’s arch nemesis, but then somewhere in there he switched sides and they became friends.

So sweet.

Careful! The floor is lava!

Well, we’ll see what happens to Biff at the end of this week’s episode of “Super Biff Tonite!” tomorrow.

Darn, Biff’s arch nemesis escaped today’s comic before you could get a chance to see him! All in a day’s work I guess…

First time comment, I just found this strip last week on Left handed toons there was an ad for it. I sat there and watched the add for about 5 min before deciding to move on (having allready vowed to never click on an ad banner ever). I then went to Is it funny today and hunted out your strip. Now i have read though the strip TWICE, the only thing that this strip needs is a random button (something tells me that you had one in the past) which would help me never get anything done ever again. Anyway keep up the amazing work. I plain on buying the book of biff (all 3 of them) once i have money, although that might not be for a while.

Can super Biff help me study for exams?
January 15th, 2009 at 8:37 pm
you know, sometimes I feel really sorry for Biff.
he just seems like he used to be that excluded kid, who had no friends, only imaginary ones.
even though I never experienced that, I still sympathise a lot with him.
now, Chris, I´m not complaining, keep on it. I´m just expressing my mid-vacation crisis. lol
I´ll keep on loving your comic, man.

I think Biff has now gone truely insane……
January 16th, 2009 at 5:48 pm
hahahaha, funny. Yeah, I agree with Alistair. Biff has gone insane

Seen the movie JOE VERSUS THE VOLCANO lately?
(no escape)
…And thanks for the memory of cushion forts.

I did the same thing on a larger scale, because my brother and I would also go so far as to rearrange the furniture to increase the size of our fort.
