It took me a while to realize that "____ has died in the heat" really means "____ has jumped into lava so hot he died before he hit the surface."

Diggles, is it you? I missed you!!!

@Frank West: Can i come too? They fired me for stealing a helicopter. But i told them i was saving lives! ;(

Oh and what happen to jessie? She's still around?

There will be many laughs to be had in Dwarf Fortress.

@Phoenix Wright: wait didn't you get debarred and live on as a piano playin' drunk!

Well, tried it...and somehow the basics got me all confuzalded...

...and the wiki did nothing for me...

...oh well.

@chocolate waffle: INTERRUMPED

Yeah it's a fun game if you can wrap your head around it. My first few magma traps ended up incinerating my fortress, what joy.

So? That just means it's a crossover.

And yes, everyone should download dwarf fortress and proceed to learn a great deal about stone.

Damned Engineers stealing my Tools!

OBJECTION!

Are you all blind? This is NO DF comic! I mean, just look at the bottom(Points to the spy and flamethrower)

This is a fake-out, most of you are idiots. That is all your honor.

JO CANCELS TF2 ARC: INTERRUMPED BY CARP

Sooo...is it recommended that those who haven't play Drawf Fortress download it now?

Or should I just stay in the deep, dark pits of my ignorance...

[url=#user_comment_38499]@SRG[/url]: Oh and I hope this has lots of Blood... or it won't be DF with out it. And vomit. Don't forget the vomit.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Just who the fuck is Zack?

Dwarf Fortress is good too....

Very good....

Excuuuuuse me? No Dead Rising Comic? I thought we were close Jo, I thought you'd put me before TF2 for once....

I'm gonna go cover a war, somewhere far away. *Sniff*

Dwarf fortress? You're making a arc about GNOMES?! ...oh wait, never mind.

[url=#user_comment_38463]@GraveZombie[/url]: I've got dwarf fortress and I really rock at it. All my dwarves have died of thrist. there. fixed it for you. NO fortress complete without a dehydration-fueled tantrum spiral.

love this game, too bad I suck so bad I have to turn off invaders to survive for more than two years.

so, pyro finally found out about sniper-tan and spy

Who the fuck are Zack and Frank and why should we care?

Fook yea

This is pure awesome.
Even though I never could figure that darned game out.

Pfft, like you get a chance to dig too deep before the carp kill you.

Pyros would probably find dorfs amusing for a time, but boring in the long run. Where's the fun in something that doesn't even realize that it's on fire? What's that? Fire spreads in this game? Happy Pyros!

there are very little webcomics making jokes or references to SoA:C2:dwarf fortress the only one I know is three panel soul. the rest seem to be ridding on the mainstream bandwagon. Oh and I hope this has lots of Blood... or it won't be DF with out it.

Needs moar graphics.

Dwarf Fortress has infinite potential for comedy. I want to see this so much.

But what about SC2? I thought you were going to do at least one strip about it.

Oh lord yes, do it!

This is a troll, right? I thought the Sniper/Pyro/Spy arc had the most requests.

2cat lol

Oh wow. Too awesome!

Who exactly is zack?

\o/

yay!

OMFG NO FRIGGIN WAY

THIS IS JUST TOO PERFECT

I am looking forward to this all ASCII version of Nerf Now!

OH HELL YES, DF!
<3 Jo

What the fuck is this? No seriously, What the fuck?

League of Legends!!!

So do we get to see the awesomeness of Morul (the most interesting dwarf in the world)or Cacame, Elf King of the Dwarves?

Ew, DF.

So this is where my miner disappeared to!
Looks like there is a spirit of fire about to do some justice before causing 'FUN'

You want a dwarf? There's your goddamn dwarf. You want better graphics? Screw you. Dwarves can do lots of stuff. Like digging. Can you dig? Hell no. Play Dwarf Fortress.

tf2 ftw

[url=#user_comment_38456]@Aurani[/url] But only if the Doctor wills it. heheheh... Doukutsu Monogatari...

The first second my eyes laid their sight upon this comic, I was filled with a euphoric sensation... Also I came...

The siege operator is an elf!

I think this is a joke... But I hope not. This game is an under-played gem that has a wealth of humor a knowing artist can tap for great fun, especially considering the hilarious sight-gag potential, as seen here with le spy.

STONES FOR THE STONE LORD

STRIKE THE EARTH

This comic just temporarily stopped my heart. This is- there are no words. The anticipation is killing me. I think i can hear the internet crying tears of joy. Let there be magma.

I've got dwarf fortress but I really suck at it. All my dwarves have died of thrist.

ah dwarf fortress, i spent many a dasy playing that game before i dug to deep without knowing what i was doing and got rushed by 12345739057396573985739440000000004624737462795002194254758362667383826367473564747636457363480284849292.9 deamons

YES! Now this is an arc where i might have the slightest idea of what is going on.

[url=#user_comment_38410]@nighthawk_99[/url]: Hide the toast, Misery is coming. :X

2CAT.

THERE MUST BE 2CAT SOMEWHERE IN THIS ARC.

Hell yeah this is going to be awesome!

You, sir Jo, win the game.

Lien, Zack and Frank are might be...
Raziel and ShadowNetZero respectively. And they know each other. IRL. So they proceed to insult each other via the internet webcomic, Nerfnow!

Finally the DF2 arc that everyone was wanting

Oh hell yes.

This is going! To! Be! EPIC!!

pyros are just normal citizens who pull the level to the magma cannon.
spy checking are done by 'guard dogs' and gremlins are known for sapping buildings.
snipers are the powerful class to use in DF due to the bow and crossbow are over powered.
oh and every one (even humans) breed by spores.

I'm hoping for a (thermonuclear) CATSPLOSION!!!

a df mod where
Australium is Adamantine and when hit with it causes a syndrome effect that paralyze the person in place.
DwaREDs vs GoBLUs KoBLUS ELUS
but there no way to make a sentry or despenser with out a utility hack that spawns a immobile creature that fires a material breathe attack.

[url=#user_comment_38437]@Epsilon[/url]: you do know that DF female dwarfs have beards (before 31.# and still then people could mod that back in...{toady has a step guide on how to add that old feature in the raws}) [url=#user_comment_38410] @nighthawk_99[/url]: he says "OH yeah" now... :(

There better be drawf-tan!

HOLLLYYYY SSHHHHHIII-
REALLY? DF? YOU ARE NOW A GOD IN MY EYES

Strike the earth!

GUYS! everyone! I found out the big secret! It shocked me but all this time, ShadownetZero and Raziel are actually the same perso...
*Lights turns off*
*woman scream with rolling thunder*
*lights turns back on, Lien is bleeding on the floor*

Acckkk... they are... they are the same...*dies*

So who is Zack or Frank anyways?

This is an engraving of a Spy and a Pyro. The Spy is fleeing. The Pyro is about to set a Spy on fire. This commemorates the slaying of the Spy by the Pyro in the fort 2fort during the summer of 2010.

It's = it is.

Its = its.

"Nerfnow proudly presents it's next arc" = "Nerfnow proudly presents it is next arc" = wrong.

It should read "Nerfnow proudly presents its next arc."

I like taquitos.

Also, for extra humor, go back a few comics to when this Frank/Zack stuff started, and you can slowly watch peoples descent into madness over the "ZACK/FRANK is X" photonotes.

Justifiable Elf hate incoming in 3...2...

STRIKE THE EARTH!

Dem dorfs man, dem dorfs.

Omg yes. a Dwarf Fortress comic! Boatmurdered.

Dorf fortress / Team Fortress 2 cross. :D

Don't dig too deep, or you might awaken the might Balrog! Huzzah!

...Please tell me somebody got that joke. (It's not LOTR)

Unicode is what I am typing D:

inb4 SPY ROUND HERE and MINE posts

that dwarf is a GOBLIN!
protect the Children!

goblin snatchers,
atom smashers,
mega projects,
assassination of demons law makers,
random forbidden one/demon/titans,
the MODS,
the utilities,
the fact that one can survive fire by burning off all their fat,
Noble mandates
and all the FUN in-between.

FUCKKEN YESSSSSSS
