Something just occurred to me. Rob is Dragonborn. Tails is being trained by a group which includes Spyro the Dragon.

Rob the no-eared man is the son of Spyro the Dragon.

After TobleroneTriangular, I wouldn't be surprised at anything. I don't really care either. It's clear there's a lot of self awareness since goons found the strip, but I find it hard to believe the early chapters were done ironically. Plus it's difficult to fake those bizarre spelling/grammar errors.

I like to think it's probably done as much in earnest as something like Axe Cop or whatever stupid poo poo people made as a kid, which is fine as long as you don't get hung up on the dude's age. But yeah seconding "don't care it's hilarious either way"

I know this is Old News but picture the scene:

Batman catches the Joker
The Joker says "Actually I'm a good guy. Your friends are your real enemies."
Batman believes him

I know Batman doesn't say this explicitly, just "after he died i found out the truth about everything" but the Joker's death is clearly connected to this, with the big reveal of the blood relationship and all, so maybe he found a letter the Joker left on his desk marked "FAO: BATMAN (IN CASE YOU BEAT ME TO DEATH)" or something, I don't know. But it's still boiling down to Batman believing the Joker.

The Joker just wants to torture Batman, so he would gladly disobey his master, Alfred Pennyworth, in order to deal Batman the hardest blow of all by proving that everyone he trusts is a phony. And his own death would be the best time to do it, as he would have no fear of reprisal. He probably had the indisputable proof ready for that very occasion.

The Joker was against Alfred, not on his side, so I know why the Joker would try to make the truth known. My point was that after so many times of being tricked, would Batman really believe anything the Joker shows him, even if he can't refute it?

Apparently so!

Elmer Fudd isn't a necromancer, Bugs Bunny wouldn't be reduced to tears by someone insulting him, and Woodstock doesn't talk (or train video game characters to dodge bullets, then forget he's training them to take a nap and a poo poo), but Batman believing something the Joker said? Oh no, Tails Gets Trolled, now you've crossed a line! Batman killing is fine, but believing Joker is just plain out of character!

Anyway, I've noticed two things about TGT that further seperates it from other, lesser Devientart fan comics. One is that there's no self-insert character. Usually the stars of these things are hedgehog versions of the authors who can go Super Saiyan and are also Avatars who have mastered the four elements along with Shadowbending and Fartbending. Rob is the closest thing to that, but he's only a dragonborn by request, and "having no loving ears" isn't exactly a common power for a self-insert.

The other thing is that there's barely any romance. There's the threesome in chapter one and Silver's side story with Blaze, but the threesome's been forgotten and Silver's thing is a very minor side story that's mainly there to present his character flaws and potential character development. Everyone's not paired up with everyone else. Finally, a fan comic writer who gives us what we want (brilliant, hilarious insanity) without forcing us to wade through any shipping bullshit.

Tails Gets Trolled is basically like if Axe Cop was made by a 14-year-old and without an adult to reign things in to a degree. I can basically imagine Lazerbot and his brother sitting on a couch watching Looney Tunes and spewing out all these insane ideas about Elmer Fudd being a necromancer at each other and going "DUDE AWESOME" and running off to draw it immediately.

It's insane, but it's insane in a really fun way. I could have seen myself writing something like this when I was in middle school.

I can't stop laughing at that painting. If a poster here said he drew it, I would just think it was awesome. But the fact that a poster got someone else who had no idea what it was in reference too (and probably doesn't even know who Tails is in general from the Sonic games) makes it both awesome and hilarious.

What was your dad's reaction when you showed him that? Was he just like "Okie dokie, I'll paint that cartoon character" without questioning, or did he ask what it was from or what? And did you try to explain it to him?

welcome to the house of god

I wonder how this will all lead them to necromancy. Did they accidentally kill Porky, and is forced to use forbidden methods to resurrect him but it did not turn out well (though still better than what happened in Full Metal Alchemist)?

I also agree that this comic has gone off in unexpected directions since that fateful first page. It's like you watch the first episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and never thought it will end with her leading an small army and burying Sunnydale in a crater.

Edit: Hell, we got ourselves a double tonight.
