The Grieving Process
Ricardo Montalban passed away this week. I’ll never forget his portrayal as Khan Noonien Singh in “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan,” or as The Joker in the 1960′s “Batman” series starring Adam West. No… wait, that was Cesar Romero.
If there is an afterlife, I hope it’s governing body has a sense of humor and allows Ricardo Montalban and Hervé Villechaize to greet all new comers with a hearty, “Welcome… to Fantasy Island.“
Godspeed, you rich Corinthian leather bastard.

Maybe be just says it with a flat "a"
January 16th, 2009 at 12:41 pm
not to be a dick or anything but pronouncing flan as "flon" is the correct pronunciation, even though a lot of people say it as if it rhymed w/plan (as in "it's all part of the plan")
January 16th, 2009 at 12:49 pm
side note: i see a comic, It's All Part of the Flan! lol

Eli and his flan makes me laugh and laugh.
January 16th, 2009 at 2:08 pm
However it's spelled in the comic, I'm sure Eli is pronouncing it correctly. He *is* Mexican after all. You know, RE: the Great Gay Controversy from the last comic I think I will make it my duty from now on to point out the obvious in each comic so that people don't get offended. I'm sure that will never get old.

i will please be having pikachu-me in icon size pls, kthnxbye.
January 16th, 2009 at 3:16 pm
Are you actually a big fan of Pokemon, or was that just for shits and giggles?
January 16th, 2009 at 3:28 pm
I think the best expression in this comic is Josh's angry bacon face.
Also, as of last checking, this isn't showing up on the front page.
January 16th, 2009 at 3:53 pm
i love the 2 drops of bacon grease flying off the bacon, or at least that's what i think it is
January 16th, 2009 at 4:44 pm
RIPYFB. As always, I just can't get over how much your art has been improving. Don't think I missed Denise's rad new white face line.
January 16th, 2009 at 5:19 pm
Yep. As a out and proud Mexican, I can tell you that the correct pronunciation of the "a" in flan is to rhyme with "Khan" or "Tron" or even "Pokémon."
Mmmm. Now I want some flan… with bacon.

I don't think any one man with so few appearances had such a huge impact on Trek.

i am not a fan at all. my sister refers to herself, and occasionally me, as pikachu when she's being self-racist (she dressed up as that on halloween). eg: that barbecue place was wall-to-wall white people, and you could tell from their faces when i walked in, they were thinking, "what is that pikachu doing in here?"
January 16th, 2009 at 5:31 pm
Hell to this day when they make a Star Trek movie they still compare the bad guy to Kahn
January 16th, 2009 at 5:33 pm
Ricardo Montalban…Patrick McGoohan. who's next??
January 16th, 2009 at 11:42 am
good comic Joel, i was sad to hear the news as well. i love the Pikachu suit on Denise! side note: great suggestions from spell check for "Pikachu" (incl.pistachio, and pikestaff)
January 16th, 2009 at 11:46 am
Awesome artwork, from now on Denise must appear as Pikachu at every fancy dress party along with Josh in his fancy bastard costume.
However wouldn't you have to pronounce flan as fl-on for it to work? There for EPIC FAIL!!11one, vote this shit down !!!1111one!1, blah blah blerg
January 16th, 2009 at 6:03 pm
I have this really bad feeling about Stan Lee…I want so much to be wrong
January 16th, 2009 at 6:06 pm
oh no!
January 16th, 2009 at 6:11 pm
Ever watch Attack of the Show? There's some classic racist jokes on there.
January 16th, 2009 at 6:15 pm
Its actually quite hard to find clean (un-mashed up) videos of wrath of kahn on utube. Here's a good one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaW35-l1CQ0
January 16th, 2009 at 6:24 pm
I think he spelled TRRROOOOOOOOOOONNNNNN wrong too. If I'm not mistaken that's far too many letters
January 16th, 2009 at 7:24 pm
We can has this comic as a wallpaper, yes?
I love the way the speech bubbles are stacked on top of each other. It makes the effect that much more dramatic.
January 16th, 2009 at 7:26 pm
yes, yes. wallpaper, please!
January 16th, 2009 at 9:10 pm
let me talk to marketing.

He was aces in The Naked Gun.

BITE YOUR TONGUE!
January 17th, 2009 at 12:45 am
Let's go with that. Oh man, now my mind is doing bad things.
January 17th, 2009 at 12:49 am
Pikestaff is the correct pronunciation.
January 17th, 2009 at 12:50 am
How far north of the Mason-Dixon line are you? Flan has the softest of soft a's.
January 17th, 2009 at 12:51 am
Ahhhhh, the USS Cordoba. It was a fine ship.
January 17th, 2009 at 12:51 am
this thing you ask. I can do this for you.
January 17th, 2009 at 12:52 am
please start a band called "Josh's Angry Bacon Face"
January 17th, 2009 at 12:53 am
I appreciate the compliment. I was debating on making denise's hair not pure black so I could show more definition in her face, but I thought I would try this first.
January 17th, 2009 at 12:53 am
Ill leave that on loop in the background of the podcast tonight.
January 17th, 2009 at 1:11 am
Yeah, I like the little highlight/detail strip.
January 17th, 2009 at 3:01 am
That is very, very, _very_ funny!
January 17th, 2009 at 5:36 am
Dude could rock a rubber chest-piece.
Why was that the first place my mind went on this one?

let us not forget his short lived role in the shorter lived cartoon, freakzoid, I think he played himself even
January 17th, 2009 at 12:39 pm
That's real sad. We'll always remember his role in the best Trek movie to date.
January 17th, 2009 at 3:40 pm
Consider it done. Our first song would be a cover of the Josh theme, of course.

I <3 imdb, "Freakazoid!" …. Armondo Guitierrez (4 episodes, 1995-1996)
January 18th, 2009 at 4:33 pm
Hate the news, love the strip, but isn't the pronounciation off though?
Kirk's cry is "kan" – an "a" – not "kon" – an o – so isn't Tron and Pokemon wrong?
Still ROLF'd though…
January 19th, 2009 at 10:25 am
turns out it's Tony Hart. Which won't mean anything to people outside of the UK….
January 19th, 2009 at 2:56 pm
yup and yup.

Josh is holding a frying pan of bacon. Now I realize that it has been well established that he has an immense love for bacon, but it has also been established that he never cooks. How does this work? Is bacon the only thing he will actually make (besides buttering bread?)
February 16th, 2009 at 6:34 pm
kaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnnn
November 21st, 2009 at 3:53 am
Let us not forget that he was on Freakazoid as Armondo Gutierrez (although he was pretty much playing Kahn… he actually says "He tasks me.").
June 23rd, 2010 at 1:45 pm
How come nobody has mentioned Freakazoid?
