Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."

I have an odd urge to create Pathfinder characters. Unfortunately, I'm not sure where to start.

digging through more of my old shit here, running across more things I made
For a proof-of-concept project I was working for the Turbografx-16/PC-Engine, a side hobby of mine, I decided to draw out Usagi (she's always fun to draw) and then put her into 16-color sprite form:
for this:
Which is Usagi as a 16-color sprite (an array of 32x64 sprites) against a photograph background split halfway to accommodate a a 32-color limit running on actual Turbografx-16 hardware. The dithering was done by an old Win16 app that, as I found was the most effective ditherer I've ever seen and it was released by Microsoft for free in the mid-90's. Not even Photoshop or Babelizer can dither this nicely. This image and Usagi's sprite would translate over perfectly to the Sega Genesis, another hardware I'd like to figure out.
I want to get back to this whenever I have time and maybe make a game or hell, just an 11.975 digital comic.
Usagi Yojimbo(兎用心棒Usagi Yōjinbō?, lit. "rabbitbodyguard") is a comic book series created by Stan Sakai in 1987.[3] In 2011 IGN ranked Miyamoto Usagi 92nd in the top 100 comic books heroes.
Set primarily at the beginning of Edo period of Japan (early 17th century), with anthropomorphic animals replacing humans, the series features a rabbitronin, Miyamoto Usagi, whom Stan Sakai based partially on the famous swordsmanMiyamoto Musashi.[4] Usagi wanders the land on a musha shugyo (warrior's pilgrimage) occasionally selling his services as a bodyguard. Usagi Yojimbo is heavily influenced by Japanese cinema and has included references to the work of Akira Kurosawa (the title of the series is derived from Kurosawa's 1960 film Yojimbo) and to icons of popular Japanese cinema such as Lone Wolf and Cub, Zatoichi, and Godzilla. The series is also influenced somewhat by Groo the Wanderer by Sergio Aragonés (Sakai is the letterer for that series), but the overall tone of Usagi Yojimbo is more serious and reflective.

That was what I jumped to too.
They used to have volumes of that manga at my school library.

Btw, Scott Kurtz has been working with the guys at PA for a while now. Given his nature, I wouldn't doubt that he suggested the idea for today's comic.

Scott Kurtz is the guy behind PvP Online, and the first person to make Fred over at MT break down and cry.
On the 15th of January 2005, professionalassholeandfattyScott Kurtz The Moon, Earth's only natural satellite and primary source of cheesetrolled thecrapout of Gallagher by mentioning how he'd stolenMegatokyofrom his ex-loverRodney Caston. Kurtz also managed to slip Gallagher even MOAR butthurt on the other side of the coin by pinning him like a captured butterfly, which is apt, since his ego is as delicate and fragile as one, by congratulating Caston on the birth of his newborn son, stating that it was "the one thing Piro couldn't steal from him"in the same timeframe. Since Gallagher has theself esteemof a wet tissue, he immediately threw a hugehissy fit.It is interesting to note that the ego of Gallagher is so fragile that the least amount of self doubt, forced introspection or the concept of having fucked up royally in any capacity will reduce him to a feebly mumbling ball of angsty, self-questioning pain, often bringing his now-trademark "hiatuses" to bear on his hapless minions of fanboys and fawning catgirls, who will shit their pants without their Megatokyo fix. Paralyzing Gallagher via this method is like the tactical MIRV warhead of the webcomic world, since it not only obliterates the target, but has a more than satisfactory collateral damage radius encompassing the fans, resulting maxi-lulz for the successful perpetrator."You have no idea how shocked, upset, and very... sad this comment has made me feel. Not only is it mean spirited, but by it is a lie. So much of a lie and a falsehood that i feel i have to set the record straight."Legions of enraged Megatokyo fans sent hate mails to Kurtz, but instead of the pity and apologies Gallagher was expecting, Kurtz employed a classic "I did it for the lulz" maneuver."Yes, I forgot the universal Internet code for 'I'm just kidding.' I know I forgot to end it with a :) or a :P so that everyone was 100 percent clear that I was just kidding. (...) This message was for all you 12-year-old-anime-cat-girls out there who want to scratch and hiss at me because I offended your God. Take a deep breath, eat some Pocky and put in the latest Ranma DVD into the player. Everything is going to be okay. Cool?"Winner: Kurtz.It's also worthy of note that Gallagher has a marked history of being catty towards other artists at anime conventions, probably due to insecurity or feeling otherwise threatened by these artists.

Assassin poems, Poems that shoot

and take their weapons leaving them dead

Well couldn't you say that all drawings are technically as old as their physical components? That is, pen-on-paper?
So like
whoever first drew usagi
however old that piece of paper or whatever is
that's how old she is.
Me? Logic?
You're funny, FM.
