I could not, in good conscience, put this entire sprite comic on one page for you. Doing so would cause those of you with shoddy computers to sit here forever waiting for the sheer number of images to load. The bloody thing is over 200 panels long, and at least half of those are larger than what is usually on these pages. This is insanity, and the canon fodder at the end will no doubt be the length of a novella. In any case, read on. Read on for four pages. On the plus side, there's the first appearance of Cruton and various cameos from television and video game stars.




The first of several mistakes: this is obviously a prolog, but for some reason, I called it an epilog. Mike P is, in fact, busting through a wall like the Kool-Aid Man. The reasons for doing this are unclear, though I thought it was funny at the time. Finally, the "AOMP thing" referred to here was a script-based site involving, as you could probably guess, the Adventures of Mike P. Though grand designs were had for it, it died fairly quickly and was unremarkable. This will not stop me from redoing the first several chapters for an upcoming AOMP storyline.



Rygar was the first sprite I ripped all by myself! For some reason, my friends and I became obsessed with the character from his NES game. Perhaps it was the bald fat guy that won us over.



If you've read the current AOMP, you'll recognize that device as that which started that whole comic.



Yes, the device is actually called the trans-quantum taction collapse net. I just thought the A-Hole was funnier, dirtier name for it. Also, it's easier to remember.



The word balloons are all mixed up for most of those panels. The final two should have Mike P talking first, with Cruton responding. Cruton was one of the AOMP characters, and the first to use vulgarities. Cruton is also the first character with a discernable personality.



The promotional art for "Super Smash Brothers Melee" is the reason for this whole storyline. You see, the Ice Climbers Nana and Popo were featured in that art, and they seemed so horribly absurd that the need to make them evil eskimos bent on destruction was unbearable.



So ends the "epilog". I believe this is also the final use of the old Ned and Joe "sprites". Stay tuned as to why.

At some point along the way, Mike P became squished. He would remain that way for quite a while.



The only thing I can say about this sequence is that we know "Buenos Dies" means "Good Day". Besides, I doubt Mexico really has such a sign at thier border.



"Grandia II" is a fantastic game. Regetfully, I was never able to beat it because my Dreamcast decided to stop working. Also, notice how lame the main building looks in that panel. Shameful, really.



You know, having friends is probably the direct reason this comic was made. You see, when "BFNA" and "Count Pikapunk" I was alone and friendless. However, by the time "Mike P Finds His Hat" came about, I had a few more friends. Then, when this comic came about the number of friends was relatively unchanged, but I was in closer contact with them by this point. Evidence of this is in that last panel there... I had not known what "fan service" was until Matt O'Malley, who created "Double O" and co-creator of "Mike Q" showed me "Neon Genesis Evangelion" and the show promised twice as much fan service. After I found out what it was, I knew I needed to use it in the way I did. It's also a joke, as five times nothing is still nothing.

Rygar is indeed a brave man if he was willing to carry a dead creature back to the Resort.



Bob is the only character in the comic who obtained a theme song. Not only that, but his endorsement of "Max Revive",  a Pokemon item, was one of two animations done for the comic. The first was Rygar discovering Pikapunk. These can be found in the extras section.



"Oneortwo Isuis" is another group of Latin endings. Not nearly as memorable as the Eror Sox Lancet, though. Pikapunk, as it has been seen, is easily manipulated.



I have no idea who this is mocking more. Americans or Mexicans. In any case, it's all in good fun.



Matt ripped this background for me. It's from "Chrono Trigger".



This whole sequence was padded out as to "show off" the new sprites I made for Mike P.



To this day, the feedback I have gotten about AOMP and PC/MS totals two people. Well, two people outside my group of friends. Obviously, I'll keep doing AOMP despite feedback, but feedback would be awfully nice. Please?



Around this time, Sega announced their withdrawal from consoles and entry into the video game industry as a software devoloper. Yes, a time of great change indeed.



Cruton means "Fuzzy Turtle Hunter". Who knew? I also like how the viking helmet fits perfectly on the "Super Mario World" Goomba.



Time for explanations: I was in Marching Band in high school. This one chair, it seemed like it had eyes on the back of it. I claimed that it lied to me. Obviously, a chair cannot like but this didn't stop my claims. I waged a terrible war against that chair until the final band concert of my senior year. Few people know what happened to that chair after that. Only I know for sure.



Mike P's plasma blast isn't the only thing that changed between episodes. More instances of this can be seen in the next episode, and the next time we see Bob, Joe, and Ned.



Considering everything, I guess Mike P is susceptible to electric-attacks. This is the second time electricity has knocked him for a loop.



Hitting people on the head seems to do wonders in curing psychological disorders.



I was inordinately proud of that "NES Advantage" joke. Before we continue, however, I must apologize profusely about the next episode. The next four panels represent the general size of each grouping.


Mike P grows generally more deformed with each passing episode. Now, we're going to the next page of this epic. I would strongly suggest switching your monitor's resolution to 1024x768. before continuing. Pat Buchanan is just the first of several celebrities about to make a cameo.
