Sunday night, I began powering my way through this thread, and what a fantastic ride it's been now that I've finally caught up. I don't know why I avoided it for so long, but I can't believe this has been out of my life all this time. Lazerbot, if you stop by and see this, I want you to know how much all this wonderfulness means to me. This past Saturday was absolutely horrible for me and I fully expected that I would be an abysmal mess of tears and depression even at this point of the week. But I discovered TGT and it's been an impressively fun read that's successfully helped me get my mind away from some bleak sadness and helped me heal. Thank you so much. And I also thank the goons as well. The videos, the music, the reactions, the deconstructions--this is probably the best thread on the site right now. Now im gonna go fix my self a hot pocket and take a nap and then take a poo poo. And then wait for more TGT.

THIS so much, when I tell my friends about TGT I don't just post a link to lazerbot deviantart or that compiled imgur link. I show them the link to the start of this thread because it's really a magical rollercoast of emotions and reactions about the insanity and beauty that is this comic, together with the musics/videos/gifs/avatars this thread is loving awesome

A villainous use of dark cheeto power out of blind rage? Shadow must be a Frito Bandito.

When I try to get people to read it, I show them random, out of context panels from throughout the story. It's pretty easy for some people to get put off by the way the comic starts unless they have some idea of how distant it gets from your initial expectations. This is a pretty good panel to show someone before introducing them to the comic, I think. A big anime guy offhandedly mentioning that Elmer Fudd can raise the dead. Then when you read the comic and it's about Shadow the Hedgehog murdering internet trolls you just HAVE to see how it all comes to that point.

I reckon that Knuckles was so high he just wrote down any town. I was surprised the map actually led to dwellings at all.

Good idea, but the reaction to Elmer Fudd's glowing devil hands was one of my favourite moments in this thread Wouldn't want to ruin the surprise!

nerdbot posted:The real question is, if Shadow can do this dark cheeto ball that can singlehandedly level entire towns, why didn't he use it to take everyone out at the Bever concert? Shadow has been training too. Flashback coming up I'm sure.

I don't think we'll get a Shadow flashback, we already know he's supposed to be a badass. Just like we didn't get a flashback for Super Saiyan Sonic - at this point, we know Shadow well enough. It's different for the Defenders because they're all such different characters, doing things so different from their source material, that it's important to know how they were brought together and how they gained their skills.

I think it's hilarious that the first thing Knuckles does is sigh. Like, " Man, not this again."

This could be the start of Shadow's redemption. He begins atoning for what he's done and shows up at the final battle to tell Tails that villains isn't the answer after all. Then Tails uses the 'light' cheeto ball and kills him. Calling it. But I better recap some things that have actually happened! #9: SYLVESTER Affiliation: The Neutrals Status: Alive, getting some cages Number: Has this many lives, as his life hasn't been shortened Sylvester finally got Tweety. Years ago, he decided to host a night out to celebrate. He sat in silence when Tom gave him a passive-aggressive toast. He got his own back after getting drunk and revealing that he slept with Tom's sister. Nevertheless, the two cats decided to get high on cat nip. Along with his bros, he stumbled into a cult meeting and got satanic powers. He didn't discover them until the next morning, when he accidentally gained control of Tweety's body while trying to eat him. He tries to give Porky the tough love treatment when Petunia walks out, but this only resulted in another clash with Tom. In the present, he's unsurprised to discover that Elmer Fudd's gone missing. To help Silver's team reclaim Elmer, he suggests using Silver as bait, so that he can use his psychic powers to trap all the trolls in cages. But who does Sylvester know in the cage business? #14: TOM Affiliation: The Neutrals Status: Alive, saving porn for later Number: Having his life shortened means that Tom won't reach his average life expectancy Tom's prone to mood swings. He wasn't happy at all when Sylvester killed Tweety before he killed Jerry, and is reluctant to even come to the celebration. But he was ecstatic when Porky tagged along as designated driver. He brought up a weird factoid about car crashes and went on a passive-aggressive rant at Sylvester during his toast. Stoned on cat nip, he accidentally got satanic powers. The next morning, he managed to kill Jerry with poisoned milk, but he also discovered the powers he'd picked up. Tom freaked the gently caress out before deciding he'd be a supreme badass. He later convinces Porky that everything will work out naturally with Petunia, angrily fighting Sylvester's advice. This inability to control his emotions results in his life being shortened. In the present, he allows Silver to use his laptop for his plan, but Tom is annoyed that he can no longer watch his porn. Where's he going to get his fix? #6: PORKY PIG Affiliation: The Neutrals Status: Dead, suicide via hanging Number: On the sixth day, God created man It all went downhill for Porky. He reluctantly agreed to be the designated driver for Wile E Coyote and friends. At the barman's urging, he had a few beers. Porky's life would be changed forever when he was seduced by a mysterious temptress and had all his stuff stolen. Unable to drive home, he followed his friends to a cult meeting and accidentally developed satanic powers. The next morning, his wife Petunia left him after discovering his infidelity. Things got even worse when he accidentally raised a pastor at a funeral, causing the entire Christian faith to unite to kill him. Porky tried to seek refuge with his parents, but they had been slaughtered by men of the church. Despondent, Porky lashed out at Coyote and was on the brink of suicide when Petunia reappeared, offering to take him back. Fate was cruel. Petunia and Porky Jr were both killed by a sniper, finally driving Porky to take his own life. There's a lesson about handling your drink somewhere in there.

More like he becomes full-on genocidal, calling everyone either a troll or a troll-to-be. Then Knuckles kills him with a cannon.

I read it as "Shaaa-doooow!!" like when you're half-annoyed or pretend-annoyed that your dog has brought in a tatty tennis ball he buried months ago, and dropped it onto the kitchen floor you've just mopped. You wish he hadn't, but he's just so gosh-darn cute. Kind of hands on hips, annoyed voice, half-smile.

Is Dexter going to teach Tails mad science? Also, if Dee Dee shows up, there's no way she isn't a troll. Girl was straight up evil.

On one hand, I hope that's not the last we've seen of Knuckles, but at the same time, "im out man ... i need to get high" would be a pretty good way for him to go out.

Why is Knuckles so loving cool with what just happened? I legitimately cannot understand. I'd call him a sociopath if he weren't so worried about his friends safety.
