CAD's art and writing are both worse than PVP's. That said, I agree that PVP is very mediocre; I appreciate the linework, but rarely find it funny...too humdrum, too many internet cliches. <BR/><BR/>I'm not sure why a few commenters have an issue with this blog. It's not like the blogger is shitting on some 14 year old's MySpace serial.

I'd never heard of Kahn before reading your post, but I would think any Trek reference would appeal to PvP's readership regardless of whether it was good or not. That's what fan references are for. <BR/><BR/>Still, people staring as a Christmas tree rolled across town would have been a nice picture that got left out.<BR/><BR/>I want to know if Skull knows mall Santas aren't the real thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4989649127373312714.post-20400712267909857332008-01-23T08:35:00.000-08:002008-01-23T08:35:00.000-08:00To make a quick correction, Scratch being in the t...To make a quick correction, Scratch being in the tree makes him Kringus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4989649127373312714.post-8983442995421817572008-01-23T00:42:00.000-08:002008-01-23T00:42:00.000-08:00Gotta love someone who makes a blog about somethin...Gotta love someone who makes a blog about something he hates, spending all that time finding the things HE feels is a flaw and trying to make everyone else feel the way he does, rather then doing the thing smart people (Or at least people with double-digit IQ) and just leaving the thing alone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4989649127373312714.post-6269962317142214702008-01-22T20:18:00.000-08:002008-01-22T20:18:00.000-08:00I have to disagree with you on this one.

The Khan reference not only adds a punch line but the connotative affirmation that if you think this is funny, then you're a member of the tribe. I don't see where that has to be a bad thing.<BR/><BR/>There are a number of PVP-centric cliches -- the panda attack, Skull farting, Cole always getting defeated by Max, etc. But this wasn't one them and I think it deserves a bit more leeway as such.Clinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02919923829641804330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4989649127373312714.post-17373101635727831072008-01-22T17:17:00.000-08:002008-01-22T17:17:00.000-08:00That was what made it so funny!

Of all the things to decide to blog about, why a webcomic? It would seem that your time might be better spent in attempting social change on a grander scale, then simply trying to get your "15 minutes" of fame thanks to someone googling "PVP" and stumbling upon your obscure blog. I would not have known about this laughable attempt at brilliance if not for Scott's own blog.
