Oh wait, I just remembered Vandal Savage from the blog that came with the comic. He was friends with, if not WAS, many of history's greatest conquerors and madmen.

Also, I'd like to point out that I'm not a democrat and I'm still in on it.
]]>Joel, there are a bunch of Cheney jokes amongst the video archive @ thedailyshow.com. Just search for "You Don't Know Dick!" and learn some of the horrifying truths about the entity known as Cheney. There's also a couple of bits from correspondent John Oliver that ID Cheney as a fleet of cyborgs stationed around the globe and, basically, the Highlander!
In the comic, I found references to Ra's al-Ghul (Lazarus pits, Ubu) and STAR WARS: Dark Empire (cloning facilities for the Emperor). Any more geek references I missed?
Damn my dream of a 2 foot wang are dashed!
]]>Because I have a thing for wheelchair-addled septuagenarian fascists who get a bigger hard-on from a war than they are from a Viagra overdose. :p
]]>OMG! I just pictured Cheney rampaging through D.C. scowling with an ascot on.
Obama – Nobody steps on a church in my town! This Dick is toast!
Hey us lesbians trapped in men's bodies have to stick together.
]]>No I meant Frau Brucher! *horse whinnies*

Exactly – it sets the bar to entry far too high for anyone to bother.
]]>a good joke's hard to kill.
(kind of like some other people we know.)
]]>"Your mom _________" lasted for 15 years. And we all know how we feel about that one now.
]]>Have you seen this comic with the great bar name? http://hijinksensue.com/2008/05/23/i-bid-one-doll…
]]>Its not really a pact as much as its an understanding, you see Cheney's one weakness is his mortality, so Satan gives Cheney eternal life in exchange for not being eaten.
]]>Wait… Does Guillermo know? Boy is HE gonna be pissed…
]]>Just to be clear, I understand that they took away his phone for security reasons, and wasn't calling them 'masterminds' in a derogatory sense… just covering my ass! ; )
]]>So Obama would be like Kaneda… (Obaneda?) Did the masterminds at the White House make him give up his sweet red motorcycle and enormous gun as well as his Blackberry?
And who, in this Akira-RL crossover, would play the old blue kids?
]]>Biddimus Prime when he takes the Matrix
]]>I'm super serial you guys!
Excelsior!
Mine too…
]]>I would enjoy seeing Cheney's little tentacle/brain persona eventually morph into an Akira-type entity, and perhaps a hero could be found to fight it…
Either that or maybe a little part time job or temp gig in a hentai. You know…. just some work until the economy gets moving again.
…Naughty schoolgirls…
]]>I was just thinking that I had finally found that Adult Entertainment name I had been shopping for.
]]>and did you see what almightygod said on Tuesday?
http://twitter.com/almightygod/status/1134499139
i admit to much laughing.
]]>Louis Tully: "I am Vinz Clortho, Keymaster of Cheney"
Winston Zeddemore: "When somebody asks you if you're a Republican, you say YES!"
]]>Red Kryptonite perhaps?
]]>Joel, do a shirt that has Cheney's face with a big red cross through it and the slogan "I Hate Dick". Then get Josh to wear it.
]]>I think the beauty you have with the Josh character is that you can get him into so many comedic situations because of his sexuality without the joke itself being "Josh is gay".
Wizard Pride is a perfect example: having Dumbledore out partying on his own or with generic gay man would be funny and tell the same joke, but would be lacking in something. Having Josh there given his love of the Potter books adds that last little piece of the puzzle – the joke is Dumbledore enjoying his liberation after he was outed, not "Josh is gay"
]]>So does that make Joe Biden Ultra Magnus or Hot Rod?
]]>Dont you mean "Dr. Frankenstein and Dr. Acula"?
]]>its hard to believe that a simple capsule can actually make a man larger. Its hard to believe because it's impossible, so you shouldnt believe it.
]]>I wouldnt have nearly the problem I do with Bush if he would just be a man and own up to his mistakes. He has never taken responsibility for anything negative that he has caused. Just watch his exit interview. He is "disappointed" in everything and everyone but himself. He was a cocky asshole to the press and the american people at every opportunity. I dont think Bush is evil (like Cheney). I think he's a smarmy, holier than thou, jerk that doesnt know how to treat anyone like a human being. That attitude permeated every aspect of his presidency.
]]>Wow! Thanks for all the kind words. Im glad you are enjoying the comic so much. its funny, with Josh there was never a conscious decision on whether or not he would be gay in the comic. He was, so the comic-josh was. Simple as that. I never wanted to shove it in peoples faces and make a big deal out of it because that would seem exploitative. Anyway, I have 100's of other ways to exploit him and being gay is probably the least of them.
]]>I guess you arent catching on to the subtext. Its like Xena. Those of us that knew, just KNEW.
]]>this is an acceptable theory. Perhaps Obama carries the Matrix of Leadership, and will later become Obamamus PRIME!
]]>His heart has literally been fracturing under the pressure of so much evil trying to escape. Its like the Ghostbusters when the containment unit is shut down.
]]>But it has to be from an animal that cant be milked by traditional means. Like a lobster. Lobster milk.
]]>In my heart there is.
]]>How does one form a beneficial pact with a creature LESS powerful and LESS evil that ones self?
]]>I drew it from a reference photo of Cheney's brain taken last time it was removed for cleaning and maintenance.
]]>Wait…. when did Josh become a lesbian? Did I miss something? 😛
]]>I'm convinced he's sustained through nothing other than the power of pure evil, something like Sauron in his dark pit. When the evil of warfare had ceased to have effect, he moved onto hunting. First normal animals, and progressively moving up the "cute" chain, starting with chipmunks and ending with child pandas. When that ceased to work, he started hunting a much more dangerous game…
]]>I don't see much remorse in a man that refused to take responsibility for anything he does.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xbeDIfIMUE
bravo.
]]>"I have to do this, because I sent them there"
That sounds suspiciously like remorse to me.
But hey, Cheney is something else entirely.
]]>Batman, TMNT, and LotR oh my!
I do love Cheny-Krang.
]]>Wow, didn't even see that. Nice catch.
]]>What color would Eli's be? I lean towards orange for some reason…
]]>Do we want to know why you're imagining Dicky? 😀 J/k, of course!
]]>I was moved to reply this time because instead of my usual laughing fit, this comic made me laugh until I cried. Some of that may have had to do with the fact that I made this exact thought about CheneyKrang a couple days ago, but the majority of it was you. 🙂
So, I just wanted to finally drop you a note and let you know how much I love reading your comic. It's consistently smart, well-drawn, and hilarious. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
On a final note, I also wanted to thank you for making your friend Josh such a vital part of the comic's universe. As a lesbian geek myself, it's wonderful seeing a part of our community represented.
Thank you again, and keep up the wonderful work!
]]>"Behold…CHENATRON!"
]]>Dual-wield shuri-poms? His Ninjutsu is truly masterful…
Why now am I going to go away and create HMNT (Hijinks Mutant Ninja Turtles) instead of all this work I have to do tonight?
Or should that be FBNT (Fancy Bastard Ninja Turtles)?
]]>PLUS a TMNT reference? GOLDEN, that's my childhood right there.
]]>Hehehe, it amuses me that Google have hidden it but all an enterprising terrorist would have to do to find it is switch their alleigance to Yahoo
]]>Joel's could be Blue, Josh's would be rainbow coloured and he'd have two pom-poms which fired shuriken at an alarming rate.
]]>No one has ever seen his house. Its not that he had it digitally blurred out of Google maps.
http://blog.wired.com/defense/2008/07/what-is-goo…
Its that it is surround by a forcefield made from a combination of hard-light repulsor technology and witchcraft.
]]>Perhaps Dick is a terminator? Anyone seen any lightning balls around his house lately?
]]>(Turtle power!)
]]>I've also always wondered what his prosthetic "body" was supposed to be: a professional wrestler with suspenders and 3-D glasses?
