Slackerz | |
| Slackerz (Webcomic) | comment |
The Slackerz is a (now defunct) webcomic about two sometimes friends, sometimes enemies Scott Smith and Scott Hepting. They are trying to find ways to be awesome on the internet. Mission Accomplished. Their comics are mostly obscure internet/video game/ 80's references that go terribly, terribly funny in 0.8 panels. Scott Smith is known for being the writer, while Hepting is the artist of all of the comics. Some recurring characters include: M.C. Hamster, a child-friendly mascot with some not so child-friendly advice. Johnny Turbo, a mascot for the Turbografx gaming machine who just doesn't give up. Matt, who is Smith and Hepting's rival and the ultimate authority on EVERYTHING that's awesome. The Evil CEO: A Corrupt Corporate Executive who's baffling approach to management satirizes all poor/incompetent/sadistic business decisions made in the media world, such as the cancelling of Firefly and causing the 2007 Writers Guild Strike. The General: A General Ripper who appears both as an incompetent real life military official, and on occasion in video game jokes. Keith, Brett, Max and Ashley: A group of gamers parodying both the original cast of Ctrl+Alt+Del, and gamer comics in general, including pointing out that basing a relationship entirerly on a shared love for video games is a VERY poor idea, and that keeping a homicidal robot as a sidekick would backfire spectacularly.Most of the comics are written in a surreal world where anything goes (Including the Battlestar Galactica being taken over by Puppies. On. Bicycles.), but some take place in the real world (or a parrallody world) based on real events. But, yeah, most of them are all about video games. There was even a bit of controversy about this, or so a few of the comics would lead one to believe. | |

Cute Is Evil | |
| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_1c1d21c6 | comment |
Cute Is Evil: MC Hamster looks like an adorable hamster, who's intended purpose is to spread positive messages to kids. He uses his position to teach them to hurt themselves and others instead, such as "Put Salt In Your Eye" or "Perform Open Heart Surgery On Yourself" | |

Potty Emergency | |
| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_2cc5703c | comment |
Potty Emergency: Hepting spends the entire Ender's Game parody arc trying desperatly to find a bathroom before his bladder explodes. There was one on the space base, but he couldnt understand the signs. When they finally get back to Earth, Smith occupies the bathroom, and Hepting finally dies of sceptic shock. | |

Serious Business | |
| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_6b35bdff | comment |
Serious Business: One strip making fun of this ONLINE trend shows a grown man knocking a kid off a bicycle, then loudly berating him for not being an expert the first time he sat down on a bike, then proceeds to stare menacingly at him through the window. Also the defining trait of Matt, the obese nerd who insists on viciously tearing apart everything he comes across. | |

Hiatus | |
| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_a14790b7 | comment |
Hiatus: Unoffically, at least. The Scotts disappeared for a while, but recently posted on their Twitter accounts that they haven't died yet. Smith said that Penny Arcade's Strip Search makes him want to start it back up again. Also happened many times over the course of the series, since Smith actively tries to improve his writing style. Now seems to be gone for good, all links go to a DNS search for the domain | |

| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_bcb313b3 | comment |
Un-Cancelled: Twice! Or was it three times? Depends on how you count the short-lived River Road Comics, which got lumped into the "Classic Slackerz" gallery. | |

Gamer Chick | |
| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_c42400d1 | comment |
Gamer Chick: Parodied. As they make a strip parodying gamer comics with one girl that's constantly complaining that the fact that she's a gamer does not make solid grounds for a relationship with a horribly incompetent male gamer. | |

| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_d6b5863 | comment |
Driven to Madness: In one strip Mr Spock is finally driven to insanity by the buffoonery and flagrant disregard for not only the rules but even common sense exhibited by Captain Kirk and the Enterprise crew. | |

Action Girl | |
| Slackerz (Webcomic) / int_dae5c997 | comment |
Action Girl: In a parody of Pirates of the Caribbean, the pirates point out that Elizabeth can't possibly fight on the same terms as them, who have years of experience in both combat and naval life, not to mention the added benefits of more upper body strength, while she has been an upper class noblewoman up until a few months ago. | |
