Well what would you know?

Hmm... i liked sam and max, monkey islands , maniac mansions etc because they were over crazy.

bone does not look crazy (only judging from covert and few pages i ve seen) ... it s cute (reminds me casper), but that s not my kind of thing

we shall see...

Maybe you should read the comic books to get a better idea than one screen shot.

Anyway, not everyone has to like every game. And hopefully DANK the caveman will be appearing in a Telltale game sometime. Does he appear crazy enough and non-cute enough for you?

WOOHOO!

I love Bone, got the One Volume thing as soon as it came out. I first read it in the library a long time ago and finally got to read the rest recently.

Go TellTale Games!!!!

I sure hope dank isn't in a game. that comic pisses me off

Uhh. The guy's all over the site, so it's a pretty safe bet he'll be in a game at some time. But you certainly don't have to buy it / play it / like it.



I think it could be a wonderful premise for a game, personally.

What pisses you off about the comic anyway?

I can't speak for Alucard, but I think it might be because, unfortunately, the Dank comic strip is not funny at all. Plus, the panels for the comic were the same as the previous one.

However, I'm sure if Dank were a character in a game made by Telltale, it would be more humorous, and I'd love to play that game. Maybe there is a reason why the comic strip is unfunny at the moment (there's only been two so far), such as they prefer the "philosophical" approach. But I can't think of a good reason that they would use the same panels for both strips. It's kind of disappointing.

Of course, by "they", I guess I just mean the artist/writer. I just don't see the strip as being a company effort.

Yay! I'm really excited about this -- the the point that I've actually had two nightmares in the past few months in which Telltale announced the game and it *wasn't* Bone. (Yes, I know, I'm crazy. Or at least my subconscious is. I'm not responsible for the strange images it flashes at me in my sleep, right? Right?)

I'm also proud to have been the first person on the internet (as far as I could find) to guess what the game was going to be.

Anyway, Telltale, expectations are high, at least from this corner. Good luck!

nice job on that YMH.

I am so excited. I think I wet myself.

[Alucard]

well the comic wasn't even remotely funny. not only was it not funny it made no apparent sense and then to reuse the first one again and change around the text was lame.

Damn it!! I sooooo thought that the big secret was going to be Sam & Max 2!!!

...it's just a little dissapointing...

I know everyone had high hopes, but I don't understand why some people thought it would be Sam & Max. Obviously the license and junk hasn't been straightend out yet. Remember the whole [color=limegreen]Bird Brain[/color] episode?

And on the Dank comic : Clearly these arent the same panels. The newer comic is about 3 pixels narrower than the first comic. And don't be hatin' on Dank. Inventor cavemen are a minority you know. He could easily call anything a hate crime.

[artwking]

Oh, I don't HATE Dank . I just had slightly higher expectations. I'm sure it'll get better.

i hope that the second Dank comic will be better

Damn it!! I sooooo thought that the big secret was going to be Sam & Max 2!!!

...it's just a little dissapointing...

Telltale revealed quite a while back in an interview that their first licensed game would NOT be Sam & Max, but that they will be attempting to get the rights in the future (when they revert from LucasArts back to Steve Purcell) - so there is stil hope...

I think the Dank Comic needs a bit of insensitive, no boundary voice of the people kind of humor pasted all over it. How about some Political disobedience , or a bad ass attitude.

[artwking]

Yeah, or fart jokes! Don't forget those.

I don't really get people who say it had no sense.

It took me a good minute to figure out the first one, but the way I read it, it was witty. I read it as "ever feel like evolution passed you by?" is a double meaning thingie. meaning that evolution obviously has come longer for us than for him, plus that the mouse pointer just passed him by for you to translate what he says, thus evolution in the image of a mouse pointer passed him by. i thought that was great.

i'll agree that the new one didn't make much sense for me, but i'm sure everything will be explained. you can't judge a comic from two panels. well, i guess you can, but i don't think that's fair.

[artwking]

I'd say they actually did make sense to me in some ways. Personally, I was only judging those two, not any future ones. As far as the second one, "Sporadic thought is trickier than it looks", well, I can agree, if he's talking about coming up with something funny or interesting to say. It still hasn't made me laugh, though. But if it's not supposed to be funny, then that's fine, too (but in a way, it kind of is, that a caveman would be having intelligent thoughts like that). So you're right. Two strips is not enough to get a good idea as to what Dank is all about.

I still wish it were funny, though.

"Sporadic thought is trickier than it looks" ?

where is that quote from?

Hmmm... I think you may have missed a key feature about the online Dank comic. I didn't notice it myself until someone commented on the first one about "mouse over humor." If you put your mouse curser over the text bubble that Dank says, it translates "hon hon pook", into "Sporadic thought istricker than it looks". And in the first comic, he says, "ponn ponn hok", which it translates to "You ever get the sense that evolution passed you by?"
