Good luck finding a copy of the original Metroid anywhere. I've checked local game shops and they all say that it's extremely hard to find. I don't check e-Bay, but I'm sure there's quite a few copies on there for sale.
I'm not much of a huge online shopper. In fact, the only thing I've purchased online was a sound card for my PC surround sound system, so I wouldn't exactly know, would I?
sorry if I sound a bit rude in this post. I'm not trying to be. Although, I very well could have mis-interpreted your post.

Then there's the question of the plausibility of pooping out AND regurgitating the same object so that there are more than one.
Hopefully as you continue conversing on the Internet, you continue to learn all kinds of important lessons. People often do stuff like comics and expect the reader to automatically understand everything that's going through their head as they make it. It's especially true over the Internet that even the most intelligent people aren't going to get it unless it has enough context to explain it.
Quite possibly the tricky part about comics is explaining a joke enough, but still keeping it brief. If you explain it too much, it gets boring, and if you don't explain it enough, nobody's going to understand. In both cases, you lose your readers before they get a chance to laugh.
I tried making a comic once. I didn't let anybody see it, as I hoped to eventually make sprites for it instead of doing every comic by hand. The text rarely fit in the space I allotted for them. I looked back on the comics a couple months later and realized that I didn't even get some of my jokes anymore, and I had changed so much in that time that even some jokes I did get had no longer been funny in the least bit. Unfortunately back then, society had persuaded me into thinking merely insinuating that someone is gay is funny. That reason alone had been enough for me to decide that if I'm to ever make a comic again, I'm going to start from scratch.
Man, I've got too many things I hope to someday do, and I can't start on any of them until I'm financially stable, and I can't be financially stable until I have a job. >_< Damn life, expecting me to actually earn it....

That comic makes absolutely no sense and isn't funny at all.

It's not being mean. He was being critical. If you haven't noticed, this is the art board.
I think (s)he was being sarcastic.
EDIT: ...This pagebreak thing is seriously not funny any more....
Quote from BioSpark:
Oh yeah, that's really helpful.
A pagebreak is when someone makes a post, then finds out that their post started a new page. That is a pagebreak. Pagebreaks are considered bad, and are jokes made by the forum. In Yoshi348's case, they are done on a much larger scale than most other posters.
I've come up with a new plan of releasing comics. I

Commenting on pagebreaks is never funny anymore. It ceased being funny months ago.
