Even if he DOES make it to the end, in which case he'll be banged up pretty bad, the ultimate showdown will be against the scissorbot, and all his accumulated powers will be that much worse for him.

Papermans (Papermen?), putting rock at an adherent disadvantage against paper. His first battle will be obscenely hard no matter what path he takes. Then, he's either stuck with paper powers, forcing him into a draw at best (or long, drawn out sustained damage).

The point of this comic is that no matter what Megaman does, he's screwed.
Wily has chosen his final bot to be a scissorbot (not Cutman, meaning Megaman can't absord its powers), and placed 8 variants of paper-themed bots before him. Megaman, known originally as Rockman, has to fight these

actually i think the joke has to do with the power absorption ability of megaman- wily will wait (say that three times fast)until he absorbs their powers and then beat megaman's new paper ability

For those who don't get it,Megaman's name(translated) in the japanese version is Rockman.That robot at the beginning(I presume,I never played the original) is Scissorman.Rock(man)beats Scissor(man),so Wily,being the smart bastard he is,made Paper(men)!

The bots would destroy Rockman anyway because Paper>Rock

Fundamental flaw: Rock beats Scissors. Pun intended.
By that logic, all the Paper-themed bots will beat Rock... so he'd have to beat Scissorman first...

As for the comic itself: well, Wily, not a bad plan, but I generally try to use the basic buster as much as possible, so...

Hey, never posted on your comic before but I gotta say:
Ignore the 4chan trolls. You're comic is fine, 4channers hate everything.
Oh, and Civ4? Totally worth whatever you have to do to get it up and running.

Just setup your internet connection to use an American Proxy (Control Panel -> Internet Connections -> Local Area Connection -> Properties -> Internet Protocol -> Properties). A whole list of them can be found with a Google search. Once the game is purchased on your account you can play it anywhere.

Try Gamersgate or Impulse for Civ IV instead of Steam. Or just use an American proxy.

You might also like the EU3 series of games also, but that takes RPG-like time investment.

paperman > origamiman > manilaman > letterman > newsman > papyrusman > toiletman > bookman > paperman
to take down wily you have to either use your japan version of the game which might make taking down paper man which makes wily cut bot weak or just use the mix of newsman and bookman's attack.
