I have no idea what to do for this contest... my penguins and I didn't expect to win. And I haven't won (or even entered) anything since CC 184, so instead of thinking of anything original, I'm just going to re-do the first contest I did, which is #21. I'll repost the rules here:

1) For this contest, the comic has to have two panels which have the same background and use the same characters. The characters don't have to be in the same pose, but they do have to be in the same position, as in left/right of the panel. The other panel has to have a different background and different characters. I'll post some examples after the fine print, even though they don't follow the rest of the rules.

2) Somewhere in the comic you have to mention a color and use a non-English word.

3) Entrants have to withdraw from their current religion and worship me as their one and only true god.

Judging will be done whenever I feel like it, which will probably be sometime Saturday the 27th, although I might be delayed by Thanksgiving.


Standard Fine Print


  • Stay away from jokes about other SC strippers and forum in-jokes such as TOBOR, wirthling sucking, Cowboy Physics, etc. They're old, they're tired, and many of them weren't funny to begin with. So even though they're technically allowed by the rules, I will not find them funny. So you will lose.
  • Go ahead and post as many entries as you want.
  • Series are welcome, but the comics will probably be judged individually.

Here are some examples of what I mean by rule #1:

5333
9260
10830

(...and don't forget rule #2! #3 is also very important, though it's more for your own good.)

This is an archived strip. But I'm tired and it's late. I'll do something original later.

Sometimes a comic is so absolutely terrible that you just have to post it.

I neglected to follow rule #3. I hope that doesn't disqualify me.

This strip is a political cartoon on an issue that truly concerns me, and so I will provide a link that gives some context to the issue.

I'll admit "sacre bleu" was a bit of a cop out, because it means "sacred blue."

Rule #3 doesn't have to show up in your comics. In fact, if it does, you violate the fine print. (Is everyone reading this?!??!!) Rule #3 can manifest itself by your sending me large envelopes of money and buying lots of tee-shirts with my face on them. You can also put a little plastic bobble-head me on your dashboard, or invade a heathen nation in my name.

BUT NOT IN YOUR COMIC!

If that's true, then I should get extra points for taking your name in vain.

I didn't mean that I didn't follow it in the comic. I meant that I am not worshipping you. I just wanted to make it clear that even though I am entering this contest, I am not making you my god.

My rules technically don't say that I'm not eligible...

...too bad neither are compliant to rule #2.

Okay... I guess the sequel is never as good -- for comic contests as well.

Thanks, Scyess. I think this is the first time I've won a CC with a new comic. I had a really good idea for a contest the other day, but I forgot it. Let me sleep on it, and I'll try to get a new one up by Sunday night.

Sweet. Second place. You didn't like "The Passion of the Heist?"
