Who Has Time To Look At Explosions?
Make the time!
Page 961 of Looking For Group’s “Cool guys don’t look at explosion” panel was so well received, it was hard to find comments that weren’t requests for a desktop wallpaper version. From my point of view, it was particularly heartwarming to see the response to that panel. You see, the day before, Lar sent me an unrelated e-mail that he concluded with the following:
“I’m just inking Monday’s LFG here and feeling full of myself for a particularly nice explosion I’ve drawn :)”
-Lar
I’m sure he was extremely happy to see the overwhelming response to that panel, and Lar’s happiness makes me happy. Well good news, LFG enthusiasts: We’re spreading the joy! There are now downloadable versions of that explosion available as a desktop image for standard and widescreen monitors. Not only that, the Dicksplosion is one of the kickoff downloads for LFG’s new Extras page!
On top of that, Lar also threw together a desktop wallpaper parodying some obscure cartoon from the 80s. You see, during this cartoon’s opening credits, there was a running gag that something zany would happen as the family sat on the couch together. It was dubbed a couch gag. Check out the LFG Couch Gag on the new LFG Extras page.
In addition to clicking any of the above links, you can find the Extras page by hovering over the News tab at the top of the page.
Hey, remember when I said earlier that it was hard to find comments to page 961 that weren’t about the explosion? That was a lie. I usually aim to find three comments for any given comic, and I sometimes settle for two. Well LFG 961 has four comments that were too good to narrow down, and it’s not even the most comments to a single page in this installment.
See for yourself in the top comments for the second half of February 2016:

“That’ll be the only dick on that ship.
Just pray their menstrual cycles never synch up, or it’ll be one hell of a shark week.”

“You can ignore the entire world Dick.
But the entire world wont ignore you.”
Rycan
He’s already dressed for the job!
Ivory Bill
But burning starving poor people and rich jerks is social progress because society benefits from it. Fewer mouths to feed and fewer mouths to have to listen to.

aah parents fighting over who has to pick up the kids

“Dragon: I think the coast is clear.
Charles: Get back in here, you idiot! You want to blow our cover?!
Dragon: Well, excuse me for getting some fresh air! Maybe if you knew how to change your own diapers, I wouldn’t need to stick my nose out every 5 minutes.”
JThomp
At first, I was like, “Yeah, it is [Rincewind’s “Luggage” from Terry Pratchet’s Discworld series]!” And then I was sad.

DVS BSTrD
Well Kethenecia is safe for children now that Cale isn’t there.
Keith Hearn
She does seem to have a crew full of people who seem to have trouble keeping their faces away from blades, yet still have managed to stay alive.
Halrandir
Man, the artwork in this NPC has been bordering on the macabre, but the scar-work on that one crewmate’s face is just fantastic.
Matt
Just. Draw. A. Nipple.
Alot
Ah yes. That childhood voyage known as adolescence. I remember it well.

Maybe the dragon’s name will be Cabbage so he and Cale can form the world’s worst salad together lol.
Mikkel Ulriksen
dragon dude: so cale’anon, tell me, why have you been bumming around the world, not taking responsiblity for the city the was founded in your name?
Cale: well, i just didn’t feel like it, i was bored because i wasn’t having any adventures, and then i found out my entire destiney, have been orchestrated by the crazy archmage, and i wanted to make my own destiney.
dragon dude: okay, fair enough, but did you ever consider the maybe you should go back to the city and clear those things up, tell them that you didn’t want to be the leader, appoint someone to rule in your stead, and then be on your marry way?
cale: no? should i?
dragon dude: yes cale, the would be the sensible thing too do.”

My money’s on Roscoe D. Dragonelder.

In the last panel, Benny just looks so proud of herself. Once you bring the awkwardness to light, no one can hide from it.
NPC 20-10
Nobody (in responce to Crimson Volk: Looks like they were playing poker, poor mouse probably had a Full House)
or aces and 8s.
Audrey Williams
Plot twist: single mother mouse from a couple pages ago has to sell her body to feed her box of kids.
Plot plot twist: The kids are fed to something else instead.

Oh, how I miss the good old times…when “pirate” meant at least 1 hook, 1-2wooden legs plus variing numbers of parrots.

I mean… That COULD be called helpful… He’s uh… Distracting the Chachas? Yeah…
Jaston the FlameMyrmidon
And here we see that Richard has managed to /domesticate/ the Chachas making them fit companions for any being, regardless of the being’s inclination to Fwoosh.
Rich The Bluegeek
He’s trying to talk them into a new line of work… garden gnomes. Seeing as how their alignment is diametrically opposed to bunnies, I think they’d be great at protecting the cabbage.

Nothing like a row of highly explosive, non magical flowers to tell a bunch of chacha’s just how much you care
NPC 20-11
Kai Kohaku
I don’t care for children either. It requires a lot of funky licenses and certifications.
Flavourius
Wait, is that a girl holding a baby in her arms?
“God damnit, not being watched for a single moment and you guys already have to reproduce.”
“It’s not what it loo-”
“SHUT UP! I hate you already.”
Dshim
oh man, i accidentally read as “”I do care for children”” on 4th panel, and thought she was getting soft or something. had to reread. after reading properly, it was reassuring to see that she doesn’t care.
Da’Zlein
Well, we used to live in this orphanage…

Well, he got to the root of the problem fast.

This must be the Warlock equivalent of walking out of the bathroom with toilet paper stuck to your shoe.
Seriously, I was looking forward to collecting these comments more than most. Our commenters outdid themselves this time.
Until next time, be excellent to each other.
