School Play Pt.7 Mary Sue

March 23, 2009

The actual Tomb Raider story is only SLIGHTLY less crazy than this, but I think it still works.

Oh, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_sue for those in the dark on the title.

  6. Mhemzille says:

    *rofl* lol this is funny! :D

    Hang on – in the last panel that looks awefully similar to a TARDIS. I mean, big blue box.. fanfic..

    ..then again it might just be my unhealthy obsession with Doctor Who playing tricks with my mind.

  7. Godbot says:

    That may very well be a TARDIS, since it’s next to the Enterprise and the Death Star.

  8. BarkingMad says:

    Product placement!

    Don’t think I didn’t see the Home Depot ads there, Sir. <_____________________<

    xDD

    Daves has way too much nerd time. He really needs a hobby, well i guess you could call play-writing a hobby. He needs something different, like making bombs! That would stop him from flying for years though.

  10. Zt107 says:

    Btw im not saying anything supporting terrorism, my school had a lock down last year after a guy who lived right across the street died and apparently he made bombs in his free time

  11. DCS says:

    Absolutely loving the whole “High School Musical” spoof running here!

  12. Alex says:

    Wow, Godbot, I’m surprised you managed to recognize the Enterprise with the 20% of it that’s actually showing behind those word bubbles. You did miss one more nerdy reference, though. (Hint: it’s not in the background)

  13. Godbot says:

    …oh my GOD.

    I never would have noticed that. That is epic!

    (Also, Thurman’s shirt says TELEVISION” on it. Apparently he’s a big fan.)

  14. LesPaulGuy says:

    yo Alex, I can’t find the other nerd reference. what is it?

  15. Alex says:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mystery_Science_Theater_3000

    in case anyone isn’t familiar. It did end a decade ago.

  16. MrGBH says:

    I think the technical term for a male Mary Sue is Gary Stu.

  17. GAMEBOY says:

    lol, that’s great… Tom Servo, Joel and Crow. I saw that before I saw what you said the last reference is. Course that means I’m admitting I’m a nerd… as if my nick didn’t give that away already :P

    Love the comic Alex… I came from Real Life Comics and don’t usually start following comics from there but this was too good to pass up, great job.

  18. Alex says:

    “Mary Sue” is much more common and recognizable. If I used “Gary Stu” less people would know what I was talking about.

    oh, and Gameboy, how are you so sure it’s not Mike? WE MAY NEVER KNOW….

    Just found the strip from I Actually Don’t Remember Where. Nicely done, good sir! Going through the archives allowed me to postpone work on my thesis by a good half-hour.

    That, alongside the MST3K reference in this strip—well, I don’t think I could ask for anything more.

  20. LesPaulGuy says:

    Just found the MST3K thing. Good job, keep up the good work!

  21. Trypno01 says:

    Wow it took a minute to find it (because didn’t cheat and look at the comments) But there it is, that is just alot of awesome nerdy goodness in a bucket, MST3K, I’m so glad I got the movie on DVD, now I just need to conquer the huge archives and get the box sets of the show.

  22. Heidi says:

    This was the first strip I saw (naturally) and I thought that Skye was kinda supposed to look like that…I mean, her character in the play? It got me thinking about what WOULD happen in Dave’s fantastical Nerdastical world when someone had Hitler’s brain implanted. That character would have all the power of Godwin’s law in her hands as well as all else! Or, his hands…would having Hitler’s brain make a female suddenly male, then? I dunno.
    Yes, I am analyzing fanfic. Can’t help myself.

  23. Trey says:

    “Dave, I’m pregnant with your child!”

    The one thing every geek wants to hear Lara Croft say to them. Can’t say as I blame them- if i had the opportunity, I’d do it too.
