I had nothing to do. I started a series. It wouldn't end. Here's the first five. Let me know what you think.

I would have enjoyed these comics, if I had been able to get past the obvious redundancy of the name "Masked Goalie." Don't all goalies wear masks? It's like calling a character "The Horse-Riding Jockey" or "The Dog-Owning Dog Show Contestant."

It is? Then perhaps a narrative caption or disclaimer in the first panel would have helped make this clear, i.e., "Note: the title character's name has been made intentionally redundant for 'gag' purposes only, and is not meant to distract or confuse the unsuspecting reader."

I would consider the helmet/cage combo to be a form of mask. While it may not completely conceal the face, it certainly covers as much of it as Robin The Boy Wonder's mask does. And what about Captain America's sidekick, Bucky Barnes? His "mask" was barely more than a line drawing around his eyes.

It's not a mask.

I think the words "internet booty" stimulate laughter. Or maybe it's just me. >_>

If you purchase one at a sporting goods store, does it say "Warning: This Is Not A Mask" on the box? I hardly think so.

If you go to a sporting goods store and ask to see a goalie mask, do they bring out a helmet?

Only if it's the kind that goalies wear, with the cage on the front, since they would be absolutely remiss in not doing so. And they'll also bring out the standard goalie's mask so you'll have a choice.
