NEW VOTING INCENTIVE! MOVIE POSTER!?!
Something new is up on TWC! It's bound to be stupid, so...
VOTE FOR PUCK AND KEEP THE STUPIDITY ROLLING!!!
ALSO...
I recently put a bunch of work into updating the PDF collection of voting incentive images, and the results are finally assembled! This new PDF volume contains all the voting incentives from 2011 all the way to 2017 (including some that never even ran) in a print-ready high resolution! That's almost 200 pages of stuff! So if you'd like to buy a copy, please do!
As for this comic…
That's one of the things I love about comic books and comic movies: how loss of limb doesn't lead to a fundamental change in lifestyle and years of difficult adaptation. Rather, loss of limb invariably leads to SUPER POWERS. That said, it seems like everything leads to super powers in comic books and comic movies.
Whaaa?! Root beer floats are like heaven in a cup! I’ll bet you’re one of those people who thinks that biscuits and gravy aren’t a breakfast, too, aren’t you?
I think for me it just comes down to me not liking A&W root beer, let alone root beer floats. Root beer tastes weird to me and it’s too sweet. Add ice cream and it’s too much.
my thoughts exactly…fun fact: a local vet actually offers +esticle-shaped silicon implants for the people who don´t want their dogs to notice/look like they´ve been fixed. there´s even a display in the window showing different models, from near pea-sized for chihuahua to ‘walnuts’ for big dogs like golden retriever.
its a crazy world we live in my friends!
Above-the-knee prostheses are challenging to use. It takes a lot of effort, and some people find it easier to manage with a cane. Some just actually give up and opt for a wheelchair because of the difficulty. Terry Fox was just insanely driven and basically superhuman.
NO! Honestly, I don’t know how a bionic ball’s strength is measured. I mean, if we’re talking tensile strength, that wouldn’t be very hard. I think most solids in the world are more durable than a real ball.
One day he’d be out for a walk and sneeze. Suddenly, everything female withing 30 yards would be pregnant. Puck would continue teasing him about the pregnant skunk until the hair on his remaining mortal ball turned grey.
If I knew of a man with a testis 100x more productive than a 21 year old, he wouldn’t get a call back, nun-uh. All us gals would be avoiding him like the plague., not if he sent roses or orchids.
But Nerd Guy (forgot his name) is right. If you get them to stand as strongly as they can, you can still tump them over with a pinky. Poor things
The big catch seems to be whether the person has lost their knee or not. Below the knee, loss of mobility with a prosthesis is negligible. Above the knee, though, it’s a whole different story. Getting around suddenly becomes a lot of work.
And yeah, 100 times the fertility is NOT needed. Not a selling point.
I walk with little difficulty on a robot leg. However, as you correctly observed, it makes all the difference in the world whether the amputation is below, at, or above the knee. Mine was below, which is the best. The prostheses for amputations at the knee are getting much better, but above the knee is still really bad. I see people with above knee amputations when I go in for Service on my prosthesis. They are often in wheelchairs, very overweight, and quite obviously getting little to no exercise. The prognosis for people like that is grim.
My uncle lost a leg above the knee years ago. He used to have a prosthetic that he used occasionally, but he didn’t much care for it; nowadays he gets around almost exclusively on crutches. (He has a wheelchair but he mostly only uses when he goes out to eat at a buffet, because it allows him to carry a tray of food.) He’s a bit pudgy around the middle, but no more than could be accounted for by middle-aged spread.
He named the prosthetic Margaret, by the way. Can you guess the reason why?
Not talking mobility, talking stability. Different things entirely. Yeah, folks with BK prostheses can get around pretty good, hence surgeons’ efforts to save the knee if possible. See all those Special Olympics. Course, with osteogenic sarcoma, it all depends on location
I take it the knee is actually the place the tumour starts, so … kinda hard to save it. I’ve heard that they do manage to save the knee sometimes, though. Pretty impressive.
Nope. It often starts in the ends of the bones where new bone tissue forms as a young person grows. Bones in the thigh, upper arm, and shin are the most common sites, but osteogenic sarcoma can occur anywhere in the body. I have seen it in the tibia, the femur, and the humerus.
@Salem: I cannot think of a thing less sexy than bone cancer or prostheses. I know some *GUYS* get off on amputations, but, yuck. Of course, many, many guys are yucky. Ask any woman. 😛
I was referring to “If I knew of a man with a testis 100x more productive than a 21 year old, he wouldn’t get a call back, nun-uh. All us gals would be avoiding him like the plague., not if he sent roses or orchids.”
@Salem: …uhhhh…, okay. So a solid turndown by fifty women in a row is a *turnon* to guys? I’ll never understand men.
I just asked the bf if being turned down for a date was sexy. He said, no, he basically went and got drunk and never talked to the woman in question again outside of necessity. I guess it’s good I showed up at his apt and asked to spend the night, wasn’t it? 😛
Personally for me to like something, it has to either be really good, or so bad it’s good. I’ve started watching the legend of the titanic with my stepsister, and so badly animated it’s hilarious.
I had to look up “Osteosarcoma” as I had never heard of it.
Until I looked it up and realized I had heard it but only in it’s non-medical name.
My instant reaction: the PAIN.
I do know a person that lost his left arm to that crap and got a robotic replacement recently. When I asked him if it was hard to adapt to his new arm, he just flipped me off.
So I’ll take it as a no.
Eh, probably more of “Of course, and I’m, understandably, angry about it, and will now tell you that in as aggressive of a way as I can without going to jail.” D!(k move on his part, but somewhat understandable.
Eh, he commonly fipped people off even before losing the arm (note: I asked him some four or five months after he had gotten it, so it wasn’t very recent).
I wasn’t bothered by it; I just shrugged and assumed that he had no issue adapting to it.
It’s a debit card. Canadians don’t buy things with cash anymore. Those new chip-based debit cards you’ve got? Up in Canada (and the rest of the first world), we’ve had those for almost a decade. We’re serious about debit.
Subclavian nerve. Find it and squeeze mercilessly. The pain will, if your grip is strong enough, cause them to pass out, maybe even causing that nerve cluster to burst.
The subclavian nerve, according to my Boss’ “Gray’s Anatomy,” is purely a motor nerve to the subclavius muscle and contains on pain fibers. It does send a few fibers to the phrenic nerve, which is one of those “gets you where you live” nerves.
Everything in the shoulder is close to each other. Lung takes up most of the space. The phrenic nerve arises from Cervical Nerve Roots 3, 4, and 5. It controls the diaphragm, which pretty much makes you breathe. Pretty important, that
Judging by how cool/better/weaponized robotic arms are in comic books/movies, I feel like people should just be taking a machete to themselves as an excuse (I know that when agent Coulson got one that had n x-ray inside I wondered what the point of organics was.
Hee hee, there is a banter in “Planescape:Torment” where Morte tells Fall-From-Grace that HE was the head of Vecna. FFG: (amused) “That was you?” Morte: “I don’t wanna talk about it, okay?”
You need to go to Beamdog and buy “Planescape: Torment.EE” Everybody ought to know Annah, Nordom, and FFG. Well some people like Dak’kon, Ignis, and Vaillor. But not me
I have to ask. Why hasn’t anyone in the strip ever noticed and acknowledged Phoebe’s tail? The law of averages would have seen it stepped on, tripped over, caught in a door, ogled, stroked or pulled by now. I even thought the baby would have grabbed it and even bitten it. I’d also like to see her have a romantic relationship? I’m just putting these ideas out there for consideration. I love the strip.
At this point, it’s sort of just a running gag or established convention that no one really comments on or reacts to the strange, otherworldly nature of the three female leads. I’m not sure I have a decent explanation for it, but it’s just a thing I do.
And romantic relationship for Phoebe? Enh, it may happen. Eventually. May.
See if I had a artificial arm or leg I would modify the living shit out of it. Need to charge your phone here plug it into the USB port on my hand I have several batteries.. Led flash light in one of the fingers. paint that sucker to look like Iron mans gauntlet. If the leg that would be a heck of a storage compartment potential. But you would have to deal with pants. Hmm, why isn’t there a market for this sort of thing? If life threw this sort of curve ball at you you’d think someone would want to make them as useful as possible.
That would be rad. But also distracting. And attention-getting. And from what I know of people who have a prosthesis, the last thing they want to do is attract attention to their prosthesis. But I also kind of want to see this in action. Maybe at a convention or something.
Then there’s Senator Tammy Duckworth … double amputee (shot down over Iraq) … when a critic tried to dis her by saying she “didn’t have a leg to stand on” Duckworth calmly replied that she had two, both titanium.
(Soon to be the 1st US Senator to give birth while in office. Definitely a ground breaker!)
After Lord Dampnut called members of Congress who didn’t applaud during his State of the Union speech “traitors”, she tweeted:
We don’t live in a dictatorship or a monarchy. I swore an oath—in the military and in the Senate—to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, not to mindlessly cater to the whims of Cadet Bone Spurs and clap when he demands I clap.
She’s savage. The best KIND of savage. I’m a bit sorry I don’t live in Illinois and can’t vote for her. But then, Illinois has an actual Nazi running for Congress, so on balance…
Hey, Heather and Tracee: your goddess Hera is calling. I have suggested a new title for Hera: Queen of the Gods, Wife of Zeus, and Goddess of B****hes. (I’ve been reading about the Twelve Labors of Hercules)
Actually they’re apparently legal so long as they are 60cm or longer (sounds weird, but I think that’s to ensure it’s not classified as a concealed knife, like a switchblade, which are illegal) and so long as there’s no mechanism like a spring that shoots the blade out, cane swords are legal in Canada.

Nerd bros AND Cancer bros.
Colin really owes Daphne for this!
Another trip for more teenager burgers?
A&W will be ready for them next time, though…
No root beer floats please. Those are disgusting.
Whaaa?! Root beer floats are like heaven in a cup! I’ll bet you’re one of those people who thinks that biscuits and gravy aren’t a breakfast, too, aren’t you?
Seconded.
What are you TALKING about? Root beer floats are amazing! Dang. Now I gotta go get some root beer and vanilla ice cream.
You keep ice cream in your house? Man, that is like the Eleventh Commandment
I have no choice on the ice cream front, what with other people in my house who insist on ice cream, but I wish I could banish it. So tempting…
I think for me it just comes down to me not liking A&W root beer, let alone root beer floats. Root beer tastes weird to me and it’s too sweet. Add ice cream and it’s too much.
@ Charcoal: What’s your opinion of Coke floats?
@Wyvern I’ve never had one, so I can’t say. I actually sort of like coke. The root beer float ruined ice cream and soda permanently for me.
@Pat
@EG
I neva know wat u 2 r talkin’ about.
At least since I misplaced my DECODER RING.
🙁
I think Cy got Colin’s hopes up for a stronger bionic body part.
I shudder to think what the results of such a bionic part would do in Colin’s case.
You just know that Colin is thinking about it though…
NO!
@EG
THIS !!!
my thoughts exactly…fun fact: a local vet actually offers +esticle-shaped silicon implants for the people who don´t want their dogs to notice/look like they´ve been fixed. there´s even a display in the window showing different models, from near pea-sized for chihuahua to ‘walnuts’ for big dogs like golden retriever.
its a crazy world we live in my friends!
I know guys who have opted for such things. I am not one of them.
I’m just confused about one thing: Terry Fox ran across most of Canada yet Cy needs a cane. Did I miss something or have prosthetic legs gotten worse?
Ok never mind
Above-the-knee prostheses are challenging to use. It takes a lot of effort, and some people find it easier to manage with a cane. Some just actually give up and opt for a wheelchair because of the difficulty. Terry Fox was just insanely driven and basically superhuman.
Yeah I realize. I went back to look at the prosetetic. Not sure how I missed that.
Didn’t he die partway across?
Yeah, he did. That was the cancer, though. Not the prosthesis.
If anything, we know where others can get shirts like the ones that Daphne wears.
If only the store existed.
That said, there IS an online store that sells some of the shirts she wears! It’s MY store! SHAMELESS PLUG!
Now Colin needs to talk about his bionic ball that is 100 times stronger.
NO! Honestly, I don’t know how a bionic ball’s strength is measured. I mean, if we’re talking tensile strength, that wouldn’t be very hard. I think most solids in the world are more durable than a real ball.
… sperm production (volume), what else?
That’s terrifying.
One day he’d be out for a walk and sneeze. Suddenly, everything female withing 30 yards would be pregnant. Puck would continue teasing him about the pregnant skunk until the hair on his remaining mortal ball turned grey.
This sounds nightmarish still.
I DO like to share! ^_^
If I knew of a man with a testis 100x more productive than a 21 year old, he wouldn’t get a call back, nun-uh. All us gals would be avoiding him like the plague., not if he sent roses or orchids.

The prognosis for people like that is grim.
Yeah. Really puts into perspective how crazy it was with Terry Fox doing the equivalent of two marathons every single day. Dude was DRIVEN.
My uncle lost a leg above the knee years ago. He used to have a prosthetic that he used occasionally, but he didn’t much care for it; nowadays he gets around almost exclusively on crutches. (He has a wheelchair but he mostly only uses when he goes out to eat at a buffet, because it allows him to carry a tray of food.) He’s a bit pudgy around the middle, but no more than could be accounted for by middle-aged spread.
He named the prosthetic Margaret, by the way. Can you guess the reason why?
I cannot guess, but I do want the answer.
One of the diminutive forms of Margaret is Peg.
Oh. I was honestly thinking something to do with Margaret Thatcher. I was WAY off.
@Cap’n Ahab
If you had a Robot Leg, a Whale’s Life would have been saved (meanie).
BTW, can we choose WHICH ROBOT ?
I’m going for ROBBY legs.
Retro and awesome.
But didn’t the whale survive?
@Wyvern
Not in my version.
Not talking mobility, talking stability. Different things entirely. Yeah, folks with BK prostheses can get around pretty good, hence surgeons’ efforts to save the knee if possible. See all those Special Olympics. Course, with osteogenic sarcoma, it all depends on location

Maybe it vibrates??
I’m trying to forget I ever heard that.
LOL. I know I’m terrible. I’ll get off the internet now.
@Susan
Whatever U said is oddly EROTIC.
STOP THAT !!
Children are reading PUCK !
(or someone in their city is.)
@Salem: I cannot think of a thing less sexy than bone cancer or prostheses. I know some *GUYS* get off on amputations, but, yuck. Of course, many, many guys are yucky. Ask any woman. 😛
@Susan

Cancer sucks but can I put it out there that The Fault In Our Stars is a crappy movie? It’s literally the same plot as the Titanic but with cancer.
Yes, yes it is. Those ‘sick teenager’ movies are always maudlin, icky, and despite the serious nature of the subject, kind of trite.
And the format goes all the way back to “Love Story”. By the end of the movie, I was wanting to yell at Ali McGraw, “Just die already!”
Yeah. Same here.
People sometimes have horrible tastes in movies.
Personally for me to like something, it has to either be really good, or so bad it’s good. I’ve started watching the legend of the titanic with my stepsister, and so badly animated it’s hilarious.
I’ve seen clips. I don’t think I have the stomach for it.
You don’t have the stomach for the animated titanic with a giant octopus? Trust me it’s hilarious.
I had to look up “Osteosarcoma” as I had never heard of it.
Until I looked it up and realized I had heard it but only in it’s non-medical name.

Robotic replacements ARE improving, I take it. I have yet to see a motorized one in real life.
It’s Spring, and BROMANCE is in the air !
Not in Texas it’s not. Outside Austin and Dallas, that is
Nerd stores are almost as bromantic as sporting events, really.
COLIN: Umm, Cy. Would it be ok it I felt your leg ?
CY: Only if I can feel your ….
ARUGULA !!
(kat scurries away – fears the future)
What’s Colin buying with Robin’s CREDIT CARD ?
Kitty Treats ?
(let it be a mousie mousie mousie)
It’s a debit card. Canadians don’t buy things with cash anymore. Those new chip-based debit cards you’ve got? Up in Canada (and the rest of the first world), we’ve had those for almost a decade. We’re serious about debit.
@EG
U didna’ answer my question.
Is it a gift for Robin ?
I’m bettin’ she will luv luv luv that new LEGO set !
Mebe even let Colin play wit it ?
No. No it is not.
In the fourth panel, CY should be doing the VULCAN SALUTE.
Those things are hard to do !
My Human Pet, “Baldie”, can make a mean salute – with the aid of SUPER GLUE.
I have no problem doing the Vulcan hand thing. Just need to learn how to do the neck pinch.
Ooh, I would love to know how to do the Vulcan nerve pinch. I have a list of people who need on badly
Subclavian nerve. Find it and squeeze mercilessly. The pain will, if your grip is strong enough, cause them to pass out, maybe even causing that nerve cluster to burst.
Uh huh. Something tells me finding that nerve is rather hard.

Exactly. When the cybernetic limbs are so cool, why bother with anything else?
ALL PRAISE THE GREAT OMNISSIAH! THE FLESH IS WEAK!
You Warhammer folks know it.
Have you all heard the story of “The Head of Vecna.?” Hee hee, that always makes me giggle
Now that I have looked it up, I am both repelled and amused. Really, those tabletop gamers got what they deserved.
Hee hee, there is a banter in “Planescape:Torment” where Morte tells Fall-From-Grace that HE was the head of Vecna. FFG: (amused) “That was you?” Morte: “I don’t wanna talk about it, okay?”
@Susan
I don’t understand any of that.
Me and Baldie are just going to chill and watch ROSEANNE.
You need to go to Beamdog and buy “Planescape: Torment.EE” Everybody ought to know Annah, Nordom, and FFG. Well some people like Dak’kon, Ignis, and Vaillor. But not me
Sturdy as a wet biscotti? we’ve come a long way with prosthetics in the past 20 years, they used to be as sturdy as a rope ladder!
Science is always moving forward.
I have to ask. Why hasn’t anyone in the strip ever noticed and acknowledged Phoebe’s tail? The law of averages would have seen it stepped on, tripped over, caught in a door, ogled, stroked or pulled by now. I even thought the baby would have grabbed it and even bitten it. I’d also like to see her have a romantic relationship? I’m just putting these ideas out there for consideration. I love the strip.

Glad you enjoy the comic!

I look forward to every vote comic on Puck.

I suggest she use a Hospital instead !

Bad. Ass.

Illinois has a pretty bad track record of fielding Authoritarians of every persuasion.
Happy Easter, all you Pucksters! Come hear our choir sing the Hallelujah Chorus!
@Susan
HAPPY EASTER !
A time to reflect on the Lessons of Jesus (whether you believe in God or not).
Peace & Justice to All Mankind
We have a beautiful Sunny Sunday Easter here in Salem.
And a beautiful INCENTIVE as well !
Purrrrrr…..
@Awesome Cat
TRACEEE has a LAST NAME now ?
TOPAZ – how fitting ! She is a GEM.
When did this happen ?
(nice pumps, too. I guess you can teach an old cartoonist new trix)
She’s had a last name since a long time ago. During the ‘Satan for Mayor’ campaign, her last name is listed prominently on the TV.
@EG
I see what happened now.
I made it to the Second Panel, and became somewhat “distracted”.
My bad.
😛
Hey, Heather and Tracee: your goddess Hera is calling. I have suggested a new title for Hera: Queen of the Gods, Wife of Zeus, and Goddess of B****hes. (I’ve been reading about the Twelve Labors of Hercules)
Hera was a prime piece of work. Heather would certainly admire her. Tracee seems to me more the Aphrodite type.
I suspect she would revere both but spurn Ceres and Athena.
A friendship established I hope. But I think Daphne knew this was just what Colin needed.
Let’s hope. That Daphne is a smart cookie. Not entirely trustworthy, but smart.
Wow! You can keep the current Phoebe Voting Incentive picture up (or another like it) indefinitely!!!
Well, I’ll keep it up for another week. Just for you. Or just because I don’t have another one to replace it. Either or.
BUT! With the addition of a cane, you can now have the opportunity get a cool cane-sword!
Zatoichi cosplay whenever you like!
(Might be worth looking up if those are illegal where you live. Some places classify them as a “Concealed Weapon”.)
Probably illegal here. Most things are.
Actually they’re apparently legal so long as they are 60cm or longer (sounds weird, but I think that’s to ensure it’s not classified as a concealed knife, like a switchblade, which are illegal) and so long as there’s no mechanism like a spring that shoots the blade out, cane swords are legal in Canada.
